A 5.0-inch full HD IPS display with roughly 441 ppi pixel density was a standout feature when this phone launched, and it's still sharp enough to hold up for reading and video today. Driving it is a Qualcomm APQ8064 chipset, quad-core at 1.7 GHz, paired with an Adreno 320 GPU and 2 GB of RAM. That's enough for Android 4.1 Jelly Bean to run smoothly, and 16 GB of onboard storage stretches further with microSD support up to 32 GB.

ZTE Grand S price in Malaysia starts from RM1239. The 13 MP rear camera comes with autofocus and LED flash, while a 2 MP front camera handles basic selfies and video calls at 1080p. Connectivity covers HSPA+, LTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, NFC and Bluetooth 4.0, so it's reasonably well equipped for its era.

Battery capacity sits at 1780 mAh, non-removable, which is on the modest side given the full HD panel it has to power. Weighing 110g and measuring just 6.9mm thick, it's a slim, light handset for anyone prioritising portability over battery longevity.
