This one runs on Mediatek's Helio P60, an octa-core chipset paired with a Mali-G72 GPU, and depending on the variant you land on either 3GB, 4GB or 6GB of RAM. Storage tops out at 64GB with microSD support up to 400GB, so there's room to grow. The 5.86-inch IPS LCD uses a 19:9 aspect ratio at 720 x 1520 resolution, a tall, narrow screen typical of phones from this era.

On the back you get a dual camera setup, a 13MP main lens with PDAF paired with a 5MP depth sensor for portrait shots, while the front camera sits at 8MP for selfies and video calls. Battery capacity is 3060 mAh, non-removable, and charging goes through USB Type-C. It ships on Android 8.1 Oreo as part of the Android One programme, with an upgrade path to Android 9.0 Pie, and includes NFC plus a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Nokia 5.1 Plus price in Malaysia starts from RM688. It comes in Night Black, Glacier White and Baltic Sea Blue.
