Targeting the affordable 4G market and featuring a massive 7,000mAh battery, the ‘Realme P4s Lite’ was officially launched in India on October 5, 2026. Prices start at ₹16,499 for the 4GB RAM and 64GB storage variant, while the 4GB RAM and 128GB storage version is priced at ₹18,499. The first sale of the phone begins at midnight on October 8. Buyers should note that this is a dedicated 4G smartphone.
This new Realme P4s Lite places special emphasis on long-lasting battery performance. Its 7,000mAh battery is significantly larger than the standard 5,000mAh batteries found in most phones. However, the charging speed is limited to 15W, meaning users will have to wait quite a long time for the phone to fully charge. While the previous model, the ‘Realme P3 Lite’, featured a 6,000mAh battery and 5G connectivity, this new model, despite having a larger battery, offers only 4G connectivity.
The Realme P4s Lite is powered by a Unisoc T7250 octa-core chipset and 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM. This configuration is primarily suited for basic tasks like web browsing and social media usage; it is not ideal for heavy gaming or multitasking. It offers storage options of 64GB or 128GB (UFS 2.2), delivering decent read and write speeds.
It features a large 17.15 cm (6.75-inch) HD+ LCD panel with a resolution of 1570×720. While the 120Hz refresh rate ensures a smooth scrolling experience, the 720p resolution might make text or videos appear less sharp on a screen of this size. Panda MN228 glass has been used to protect the display. You will notice a slightly larger display on this model compared to the previous one.
Its camera setup is quite basic, featuring a 13-megapixel wide-angle rear camera and a 5-megapixel front camera. The performance of these sensors in low-light conditions is not particularly satisfactory, and they are primarily suited for capturing standard-quality photos. The phone comes with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and is available in ‘Nebula Black’ and ‘Moonlight Silver’ colors. With a weight of 215 grams, a thickness of 9mm, and a massive battery, it is a rather heavy and bulky device. If you are primarily looking for a device for photography and videography, this might not be the best choice; however, it could be a good option if you are seeking a device with a large battery.
The Realme P4s Lite is designed primarily for users who prioritize long-lasting battery life above all else, those who want to use the phone for several days on a single charge and do not place much importance on features like high-end performance, fast charging, or superior camera quality. Given its weak processor and slow charging speeds, the ₹16,499 price tag for the 64GB base model does not seem particularly justified. Therefore, before purchasing the Realme P4s Lite, buyers should carefully consider whether the extended battery life is worth the compromises made in other areas.
