realme Shakes Up the Mid-Range Market with the P4x 5G
MANILA, PHILIPPINES – realme is once again making waves in the highly competitive smartphone market with the launch of its latest mid-range contender, the realme P4x 5G. Unveiled recently in India, this new addition to the P4 series is built around two incredible features that are sure to grab the attention of Filipino tech enthusiasts: a brand-new powerful chipset and a battery that seems to never quit.
Designed for users who demand endurance and performance without breaking the bank, the realme P4x 5G combines a massive 7,000mAh battery with the new MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra SoC. This combination promises to deliver an experience that can keep up with the busiest lifestyles, from all-day gaming sessions to non-stop content consumption. Let’s dive deeper into what this promising new device has to offer.
Display and Build: Smooth, Bright, and Durable
The first thing you’ll notice about the realme P4x 5G is its large 6.72-inch Full HD+ LCD panel. What makes it stand out is the 144Hz variable refresh rate, a feature often reserved for more expensive gaming-centric phones. This means users in the Philippines can expect incredibly smooth scrolling through social media, fluid animations, and a more responsive feel in supported games. Coupled with a peak brightness of up to 1000 nits, outdoor visibility, even under the bright Philippine sun, should be excellent.
realme has also focused on durability. The device boasts an “Aerospace Design” and is IP64 certified for dust and water resistance, offering protection against splashes and particles. Adding to its robust build, it is also Military-Grade Certified, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of daily use. The phone will be available in three stylish colors: Matte Silver, Elegant Pink, and Lake Green.
Performance: Powered by the New Dimensity 7400 Ultra
At the heart of the realme P4x 5G is the new 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra octa-core processor, clocked at 2.6GHz. This cutting-edge chipset, paired with a Mali-G615 MC2 GPU, is engineered for efficient power consumption while delivering the muscle needed for demanding apps and modern mobile games. Whether you’re multitasking for work or battling it out in your favorite online game, this phone is designed to keep up.
To support this powerful processor, the device comes with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM, which can be virtually expanded with an additional 10GB of Dynamic RAM for a total of 18GB. Storage options are generous, with up to 256GB of fast UFS 3.1 internal storage. For media hoarders and gamers, the storage is expandable up to a massive 2TB via a microSD card.
Recognizing that power generates heat, realme has equipped the P4x 5G with a 5300mm² VC Frostcore Cooling System. This advanced cooling solution is crucial for maintaining peak performance during long gaming sessions, a welcome feature for users in a tropical climate like the Philippines.
The Main Attraction: A Colossal 7,000mAh Battery
The standout feature of the realme P4x 5G is undoubtedly its enormous 7,000mAh battery. This capacity is significantly larger than what’s found in most smartphones today and is designed to eliminate battery anxiety. For the average Filipino user, this could easily translate to two or even three days of moderate use on a single charge. It’s a perfect companion for long commutes, out-of-town trips, and marathon entertainment sessions without constantly needing to reach for a power bank.
When it’s finally time to recharge, the phone supports 45W fast charging to quickly top up the massive battery. Furthermore, it includes a Bypass Charging feature, which powers the phone directly while gaming, bypassing the battery. This reduces heat buildup and preserves battery health over the long term—a thoughtful addition for mobile gamers.
realme has been on a roll with large-battery phones, a trend we also saw with another recently launched device. As we noted in our coverage of the realme C85 5G arriving in the Philippines, a massive battery is a game-changer for local users who rely on their phones for everything from work to entertainment.
Cameras and Other Notable Features
The realme P4x 5G features a dual-camera setup on the back, led by a 50MP main sensor (OV50D40) with an f/1.8 aperture. This is complemented by a 2MP secondary lens, likely for depth sensing in portrait shots. While not a flagship camera system, this setup should be more than capable of capturing sharp, vibrant photos in good lighting conditions. For selfies and video calls, there’s an 8MP front-facing camera.

- Security: Fast and reliable side-mounted fingerprint scanner
