A Helio G90T chipset paired with 6GB RAM puts this phone in gaming-phone territory for its era, and the Mali-G76 MC4 GPU backs that up. The 6.53-inch IPS LCD runs at 1080 x 2340, sharp enough for daily use, and it's wrapped in Gorilla Glass 5 front and back so it can take a few knocks. Storage comes in 64GB or 128GB, both expandable via microSD if you need more room.

The camera setup is where this one stands out: a 64MP main sensor leads a quad-camera array that includes an 8MP ultrawide, a dedicated 2MP macro lens and a 2MP depth sensor. Video tops out at 4K30, which is above average for this price bracket. A 4500mAh battery with 18W fast charging means you're not tethered to a wall outlet all day.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro price in Malaysia starts from RM799. It ships with NFC, infrared and a 3.5mm jack with active noise cancellation, features that are increasingly rare at this price point.
