Samsung Galaxy S5 price in Malaysia starts from RM968, putting a 2014 flagship with still-relevant basics within easy reach. The Snapdragon 801 chipset and Adreno 330 GPU pair with 2GB RAM, enough for the KitKat-era Android it ships with. Its 5.1-inch Super AMOLED screen runs at 1080 x 1920, sharp for its time and still solid for everyday viewing.

The 16MP rear camera has phase detection autofocus and can shoot up to 4K video, a genuine step up from most phones of its generation. A 2800 mAh battery handles daily use, and storage stretches via microSD up to 128GB on top of the built-in 16 or 32GB.

Built with an IP67 rating, it shrugs off dust and brief dunks in water. Add a fingerprint sensor and NFC, and this is a phone that packed in more hardware than its release year suggested.
