This one's a throwback. The Redmi Note runs on Mediatek's MT6592, an octa-core chip paired with just 1 or 2 GB of RAM depending on the variant, so it's built for basic tasks rather than anything demanding. Storage sits at 8 GB internally, though a microSD slot takes you up to 32 GB more, and the 5.5-inch IPS LCD screen was considered generous for its era. Xiaomi Redmi Note price in Malaysia starts from RM320.

Camera-wise, you get a 13 MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, plus a 5 MP front camera for basic selfies. There's HDR and face detection too, features that were still fairly novel when this launched.

The 3100/3200 mAh battery was solid for daily use back in 2014, and dual SIM support adds practicality. It ships with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, so don't expect modern app compatibility or software updates; this is a device for collectors or very specific budget needs, not everyday smartphone use in 2024.
