Samsung ST90

This is a point-and-shoot camera, not a phone, and it's built for people who want simple snapshots without fiddling with settings. The 14-megapixel CCD sensor tops out at 4608 x 3456 resolution, decent for prints and casual sharing. There's no manual focus, no shutter priority, no manual exposure mode; everything runs through scene modes and metering presets (multi, center-weighted, spot). Samsung ST90 price in Malaysia starts from RM320.

The body is ultracompact at just 92 x 53 x 17 mm, easy to slip into a pocket or small bag. The LCD is fixed, not articulated, and there's no viewfinder at all, so you're composing shots purely through the screen. No GPS tagging either, and the mic is mono rather than stereo, which matters if video sound quality is a priority for you.
