Microsoft Lumia 540 Dual SIM price in Malaysia starts from RM399, putting it firmly in budget territory. Inside is a quad-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon 200 chipset paired with just 1GB RAM, so this is built for basic tasks rather than heavy multitasking. The 5.0-inch IPS LCD screen is a reasonable size for the price bracket, and 8GB of internal storage gets a boost from microSD support up to 128GB.

The 8MP rear camera comes with autofocus and LED flash, decent enough for casual daytime shots, while the 5MP front camera handles selfies at a modest resolution. A 2200mAh battery keeps things running, and dual SIM support is handy if you're juggling two numbers.

It runs Windows Phone 8.1 with Lumia Denim, which was Microsoft's software push before the platform faded out. That's worth factoring in if long-term app support matters to you when weighing this against other budget phones on the market.
