This one's aimed at buyers who want long battery life over raw speed. The Snapdragon 625 chipset with 3GB RAM handles everyday apps fine, though it's not built for heavy gaming. Storage sits at 32GB, but there's a dedicated microSD slot if you need more room, up to 256GB. The 5.84-inch IPS LCD runs at a sharp 432 ppi, which keeps text and photos looking crisp for a phone in this price bracket.

The dual rear camera pairs a 12MP main sensor with a 5MP depth sensor for portrait shots, while the 4000mAh battery is the standout here, easily lasting through a full day of use. Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite price in Malaysia starts from RM549, which puts it firmly in budget territory.

It runs Android One, so you get a cleaner version of Android 8.1 Oreo without heavy skinning. Other conveniences include a rear fingerprint reader, infrared blaster for remote control functions, and a 3.5mm headphone jack, features that have quietly disappeared from a lot of newer phones.
