Qualcomm SM6225 Snapdragon 680 4G (6 nm)Chipset 8GB RAM + 256GB ROMRAM & Storage Dual: 50 MP, f/1.8, 27mm (wide), PDAF +Rear Camera Li-Po 5000 mAh, non-removable batteryBattery

Snapdragon 680 handles daily tasks fine, and with 8GB RAM plus 256GB storage, you're not going to run out of space anytime soon. There's also up to 5GB of virtual RAM if you need a bit more multitasking headroom. The 6.59-inch IPS LCD runs at 90Hz, which makes scrolling noticeably smoother than a standard 60Hz panel at this price point.

The Oppo A96 price in Malaysia starts from RM1299. On the camera side, you get a 50MP main sensor with PDAF for decent focus accuracy, backed by a 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots; there's no ultrawide or telephoto here, so this is a straightforward point-and-shoot setup rather than a versatile one.

Battery life should be a strong point: the 5000mAh cell is paired with 33W fast charging, getting you to 50% in about 26 minutes. At 191g and 8.4mm thick, it's not the lightest phone around, but it runs Android 11 with ColorOS 11.1 and comes in Starry Black or Pearl Pink.
