This one's aged well as a budget pickup: the twin 8 MP rear cameras were a rare setup back in 2014, meant to improve depth and low-light performance rather than just chase megapixels. The Kirin 925 octa-core chipset and 3 GB RAM handle everyday tasks fine, and the 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display at 401 ppi still looks sharp for the size.

Storage runs 16 or 32 GB depending on the model, with microSD support up to 256 GB if you need more room. The 3600 mAh battery is generous for the era and should comfortably get you through a day. Honor 6 Plus price in Malaysia starts from RM450, and it ships in Black or White/Gold depending on the variant.

Connectivity covers dual SIM, LTE Cat6, NFC on the LTE model, and infrared, so it's not short on features despite its age. Just note it launched on Android 4.4 KitKat with a planned bump to Marshmallow, so software support is long past its shelf life.
