Huawei Ascend Y520 price in Malaysia starts from RM499, putting it firmly in budget territory. Inside is a dual-core Mediatek MT6572 chip paired with just 512 MB of RAM, so this is a phone built for calls, texts and light browsing rather than heavy multitasking. The 4.5-inch TFT screen runs at 480 x 854 pixels, and 4 GB of onboard storage means you'll want that microSD card slot (up to 32 GB) fairly quickly.
The 5 MP rear camera comes with autofocus and an LED flash, while the front camera is a basic VGA unit, fine for the odd low-res selfie but nothing more. A 1750 mAh battery keeps things running, and the phone ships with Android 4.4 KitKat.
At 150 g and 10.2 mm thick, it's compact and comes in Black, White, Blue or Pink. It's a straightforward device for buyers who just need the basics covered without spending much.
