Realme is back to shake up the mid-range smartphone market with its all-new P4 Pro 5G — a powerhouse designed for gaming, performance, and premium aesthetics. With a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset, a massive battery, and an AI-driven visual engine, the P4 Pro aims to deliver a flagship-like experience at an aggressive price point.
Let’s dive into our first impressions of the Realme P4 Pro — and whether it lives up to the hype.
Realme P4 Pro 5G Pricing in IndiaThe Realme P4 Pro 5G starts at ₹24,999 for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant. The 8GB + 256GB model is priced at ₹26,999, while the top-tier 12GB + 256GB configuration costs ₹28,999. The smartphone will be available from August 27, 2025, via Flipkart, realme.com, and major offline retailers.
Design & Build: Premium Feel with Unique Finish
Realme continues to impress with its design aesthetics. The P4 Pro is available in three elegant colour options:
- Birch Wood
- Dark Oak Wood
- Midnight Ivy
We got our hands on the Midnight Ivy variant, and its muted emerald green tone delivers a luxurious appearance. The rear features a bold rectangular camera island that provides a unique dual-tone finish — though it does cause a slight wobble on flat surfaces.
Despite packing a massive 7,000mAh battery, the phone maintains a sleek profile at 7.68mm thickness and weighs just 189 grams. It’s also IP68 and IP69 certified, meaning it’s both water- and dust-resistant — a rarity in this price range.
Display & Visual Experience: A Feast for the EyesThe P4 Pro boasts a 6.8-inch 1.5K OLED display with a resolution of 1280 x 2880 pixels. It’s a visual treat with:
- 144Hz refresh rate
- 100% DCI-P3 color gamut
- Up to 4608Hz PWM dimming
- Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection
Adding to this is the dedicated HyperVision AI chipset, featuring the Pixelworks X7 Gen 2 visual processor. This chip handles frame interpolation, video enhancement, and AI-driven graphics rendering, offering up to 144FPS gameplay on over 100 supported titles, including popular games like BGMI.
Performance & Hardware: Built for Speed
Under the hood, the Realme P4 Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, paired with the Adreno 722 GPU. Storage and RAM configurations include up to 12GB LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 internal storage.
Thermals are managed by a large 7,000mm² vapor chamber cooling system, allowing for sustained gaming and multitasking without overheating.
It runs on Realme UI 6.0 based on Android 15, and Realme has promised 3 years of major Android updates and 4 years of security patches — a welcome move for long-term users.
Camera Capabilities: AI-Enhanced Imaging
The P4 Pro features a dual-camera setup on the rear:
- 50MP Sony IMX896 main sensor (f/1.8 aperture, OIS)
- 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens (f/2.2 aperture)
Selfie lovers will appreciate the 50MP OV50D front camera with an f/2.4 aperture, making it perfect for high-quality selfies and video calls.
AI-based features enhance photography across lighting conditions, though we’ll assess their effectiveness in the full review.
Battery Life & Charging: Power That Lasts
The 7,000mAh battery ensures that the Realme P4 Pro keeps running all day and more. It supports:
- 80W fast charging
- 10W reverse charging
- Bypass Charging (useful during gaming to reduce heat and battery wear)
Realme has borrowed this feature from its GT series, giving gamers even more reason to rejoice.
Final Thoughts: A Gaming Beast With Flagship DNA
With a sleek build, vibrant display, monster battery, and gaming-focused features, the Realme P4 Pro 5G is shaping up to be a strong contender in the sub-₹30K category. While it faces competition from the likes of the Poco X7 Pro, OnePlus Nord CE 5, iQOO Neo 10R, and Infinix GT 30 Pro 5G+, its dedicated AI visual chip and massive battery give it a competitive edge.
Stay tuned for our in-depth review, where we’ll put all these claims to the test.
