Sony Xperia Z1 price in Malaysia starts from RM1204. Under the hood sits a Snapdragon 800 chipset paired with Adreno 330 graphics and 2GB RAM, still snappy for everyday use. The 5.0-inch Full HD screen packs in 441 ppi, sharp enough for text and video, and it's built with IP58 certification so dust and short water dips aren't an issue.

The standout here is the 20.7 MP rear camera, using a 1/2.3'' sensor with image stabilization, HDR and autofocus for shots in mixed lighting. A 3000 mAh battery keeps it running, and 16GB storage expands via microSD up to 64GB if you shoot a lot of photos or video.
