This is a budget handset built around a Snapdragon 400 chipset with a quad-core 1.2 GHz processor, paired with just 1 GB of RAM. That combination puts it firmly in entry-level territory, fine for calls, messaging and light browsing but not much beyond that. Storage is limited too at 8 GB, though a microSD slot lets you add up to 32 GB more.

The 5-inch display runs at 540 x 960 pixels, which works out to roughly 220 ppi; it's a TFT panel, so don't expect punchy contrast or wide viewing angles. On the back sits a 5 MP camera with autofocus and LED flash, while the front camera is a basic 1 MP for the occasional selfie or video call. A 2300 mAh battery keeps things running, and the phone ships with Android 4.4.2 KitKat.

ZTE Imperial II price in Malaysia starts from RM599, and it's currently sold in White. It's the kind of phone worth considering if you just need something functional and don't care about flagship extras.
