This one's built around size and battery life rather than raw power. The 6.1-inch IPS+ LCD panel runs at 720 x 1280, which isn't sharp by today's standards at around 241 ppi, but it gives you a lot of screen to work with for media and browsing. Underneath is a Snapdragon 400 chipset with a quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A7 setup, paired with 2GB RAM and 16GB storage that expands up to 64GB via microSD. It's a mid-range setup suited to everyday use rather than gaming.

The standout spec is the 4050 mAh battery, well above what most phones of this era carried, so all-day use shouldn't be a stretch. Camera-wise you get a 13MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video, plus a 5MP front camera for basic selfies. Huawei Ascend Mate 2 4G price in Malaysia starts from RM1299.

It also supports 4G LTE with download speeds up to 150 Mbps, Wi-Fi Direct, DLNA and GLONASS positioning, so connectivity holds up despite the phone's age. It ships in Crystal Black or Pure White, running Android 4.3 Jelly Bean out of the box.
