Sony Xperia Z Ultra price in Malaysia starts from RM975. This one's built around a 6.4-inch Full HD display, which was massive for its time and still makes it a phone-tablet hybrid rather than a standard handset. A Snapdragon 800 chipset and 2GB RAM handle the workload, paired with 16GB storage that's expandable via microSD up to 64GB.

It's IP58 rated, so it handles dust and can survive submersion over a meter of water, a feature not every modern phone bothers with. The 8 MP rear camera shoots 1080p video with stabilization, and the 3050 mAh battery has to work a bit harder given that oversized screen.
