Sony Xperia ZR price in Malaysia starts from RM1150, putting a rugged, water-resistant Android phone from 2013 within reach for anyone hunting a retro Sony device. The Snapdragon APQ8064 chipset with quad-core 1.5GHz Krait cores and Adreno 320 GPU handled everyday tasks fine for its era, paired with 2GB RAM and 8GB storage that you can stretch to 64GB with a microSD card. The 4.55-inch display runs at 720 x 1280 with a 323 ppi density, sharp enough for a screen this size.

What set the ZR apart back then was its IP58 rating: it's dust proof and can survive over a meter of water, which was unusual for a phone this compact. The 13.1MP rear camera adds autofocus, LED flash, HDR and sweep panorama, plus 1080p video at 30fps. A 2300 mAh battery keeps things running, and there's NFC, GPS with GLONASS, and LTE support rounding out the connectivity.

It comes in Black, White, Pink and Mint, and at 138g with a 10.5mm profile, it's easy enough to carry around without feeling bulky.
