Qualcomm MSM8937 Snapdragon 430Chipset 32GB, 4 GB RAMRAM & Storage 13 MP, f/2.0, laser autofocus, dual-LED (dual tone) flashRear Camera Non-removable Li-Ion 3000 mAh batteryBattery

Snapdragon 430 handles the everyday load here, paired with 4GB RAM and 32GB storage that stretches further thanks to microSD support up to 256GB. The 5.5-inch IPS LCD panel runs at full HD resolution with a 401 ppi density, sharp enough for reading and video without straining. Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow runs the show, which feels dated by today's standards but was standard fare at launch.

Camera-wise, the 13MP rear shooter uses laser autofocus for quicker focusing, backed by a dual-LED flash and an f/2.0 aperture. The 8MP front camera covers selfies adequately. A rear-mounted fingerprint scanner speeds up unlocking, and dual SIM support with LTE Cat4 means decent connectivity options. Asus Zenfone 3 Laser price in Malaysia starts from RM999.

Battery capacity sits at 3000mAh, non-removable, which is modest but matches the phone's mid-range positioning. At 150g and 7.9mm thick, it's neither the slimmest nor the lightest in its class, but it's built to handle daily use without fuss.
