Qualcomm SDM712 Snapdragon 712 (10 nm)Chipset 64/128 GB, 6 GB RAMRAM & Storage Triple: 48 MP, f/1.8, 1/2", 0.8µm, PDAF + 13 MP, f/2.4, (ultrawide), 1.12µm + 8 MP, f/2.4, (telephoto), 1.12µm, PDAFRear Camera Non-removable Li-Po 3070 mAh batteryBattery

A 48MP main sensor anchors the triple camera setup here, backed by a 13MP ultrawide and an 8MP telephoto lens with PDAF. Selfies go through a 20MP front camera. On paper, that's a lot of camera flexibility for a phone in this bracket, and video tops out at 4K30fps.

Inside, the Snapdragon 712 chipset runs alongside 6GB RAM and either 64GB or 128GB storage, no card slot though, so pick your capacity carefully. The 5.97-inch Super AMOLED screen packs a sharp 432 ppi and fits into a small, light 155g frame. Xiaomi Mi 9 SE price in Malaysia starts from RM1099.

Battery capacity is modest at 3070 mAh, which fits the compact build but means lighter users will get more mileage than heavy multitaskers. Extras include an under-display fingerprint reader, NFC, infrared, and dual-band Wi-Fi, useful additions for a phone in this price range. It ships with Android 9.0 and MIUI 10 on top, and comes in Violet, Blue, or Gray.
