Frustrated that your phone’s battery lasts barely a day? Realme’s latest smartphone fixes that.
It’s called the Realme P4 Power 5G, and it has a humongous, 10,001mAh battery inside. For comparison, Samsung’s flagship, the Galaxy S25 Ultra, has a 5,000mAh battery.
Translated into real-life usage (Realme’s estimates of it, at least), this means 932.6 hours of standby, 32.5 hours of YouTube streaming, and 185.7 hours of listening to music.

What about regular usage? In a press release, Realme said the battery delivers “week-long endurance.”
In some of its promo materials, Realme is surprisingly modest when it comes to overall battery life, claiming the phone will last 1.5 days between charges. However, the company claims you have to charge “other” phones twice a day, so we’re guessing they’re talking about very heavy usage here.

Phones with massive batteries aren’t new. I dug through Mashable’s archive as back as 2019 to find an Energizer phone with an 18,000mAh battery. But Realme’s P4 Power 5G is different in one key way: It’s a normal looking phone that weighs just 219 grams.
This phone, indeed, is more convenient than lugging around a 10,000mAh power bank.

We couldn’t find the P4 Power 5G’s exact dimensions, but judging by Realme’s promo pics, it isn’t that much thicker than its predecessor, the Realme P4 5G, which boasts a 7.58-millimeter body (and, by the way, has a 7,000mAh battery).
Realme’s battery tech brings other perks to the mix, too. For example, with 27W reverse charging, this phone can very well be used as a power bank for your other gadgets. Also, the company says that at just one percent battery, you can plug the phone in and continue playing with it while it charges.
Besides its massive battery, the Realme P4 Power 5G looks like a decently equipped mid-range Android phone. Realme hasn’t officially shared all of the specs, but we know that the phone has a 6.78-inch, 144Hz AMOLED display, it’s powered by Mediatek’s Dimensity 7400 chip, and has 12GB of RAM (according to Geekbench listings).
On the back, there’s a triple camera system, though the exact details about the cameras haven’t been publicly revealed.
The Realme P4 Power 5G will debut in India on Jan. 29 in three colors: TransOrange, TransSilver, and TransBlue. We have no details about global availability at this point.
