Under the hood, the LG G5 SE runs a Snapdragon 652 chipset pairing quad-core Cortex-A72 and Cortex-A53 cores, backed by 3GB of RAM. Storage sits at 32GB, but there's a dedicated microSD slot that adds up to 200GB more if you need it. The 5.3-inch IPS LCD panel pushes a sharp 1440 x 2560 resolution at roughly 554 ppi, which is dense for a phone this size.

On the camera side, LG went with a dual setup: a 16MP main lens at f/1.8 paired with an 8MP secondary at f/2.4, plus laser autofocus and 3-axis OIS to help steady shots. The 2800 mAh battery is removable, a rarity even back then, and it charges over USB Type-C. LG G5 SE price in Malaysia starts from RM1639.

Rounding things out, you get a fingerprint sensor, NFC, an infrared port, and a proper 3.5mm jack. It runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box, and comes in Silver, Titan, or Gold.
