Realme 2 price in Malaysia starts from RM499, putting it firmly in entry-level territory. Under the hood sits a Snapdragon 450 chipset paired with Adreno 506 graphics, enough for everyday apps and light gaming without expecting much beyond that. You get a choice of 3GB RAM with 32GB storage or 4GB RAM with 64GB storage, plus a dedicated microSD slot if you need more room. The 6.2-inch IPS LCD display runs a 19:9 aspect ratio at 720p resolution, so text and video look serviceable rather than sharp.

On the back you'll find a dual camera setup, a 13MP main sensor paired with a 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots, while the front houses an 8MP camera for selfies. Battery life is where this phone tries to stand out: a 4230 mAh cell that should comfortably get most users through a full day. It runs Android 8.1 Oreo with ColorOS 5.2 layered on top, and includes a rear fingerprint sensor, dual SIM support, and a 3.5mm headphone jack for anyone still using wired audio.
