I'm not too sure of which one fits all of your criteria here. But at best, you can buy the Alcatel Flash 2 via Lazada with the price of RM 499 (use the SHOP15 code, you will get 15% discount up to RM 50 for new customers).

Closest to that would be Xiaomi Redmi 2, which you can get it at Lazada for RM 499. For a cheaper price, use the TREAT80 code to get it at RM 444.

1. Brand = Any
2. Budget +/- RM1000
3. Specs = Any, as long as I can play games on it smoothly. Good to decent battery (don't drain too fast). Removable is a plus, but not necessary.
4. Type/Size = Bigger is better?

Hi Guys,

I am looking for a new mid-range phone to play games on. It should be able to support hack and slash/3D graphics without much frame lags. My current phone is a Sony Xperia ZL.

I think the one that makes it expensive is the camera, front 8mp, back 13mp & Screen material as strong as iPhone. So far so good

Not really. There is no phone that cheap that has screen come close to iphone in terms of colour accuracy, brightness & contrast. The camera isn't exact the best at that price range as well. Check out Xperia M5, it has 13mp front camera and the rear camera has the 21MP 1/2.4" sensor with phase detection AF.

Lenovo P1. Offers the best value based on your specs
Xperia C5 Ultra. Quite adequate in battery department and camera.
Asus Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML, 4GB RAM). Not a best in battery, but trust me- when it comes to charging and camera, this phone stands out!

I recommend the Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced for RM 489 in Lazada for good battery life despite the capacity being small. If you want big battery then go for Lenovo P1m for RM 599 in Lazada.

Would recommend Samsung Alpha and Sony Z3 Compact albeit being 2014's compact flagships. If you need something new that Sony Z5 Compact would be good, but still, beware for the Snapdragon 810 for being infamous for overheating- but this should be least of your concerns.

I would recommend you Nexus 6 albeit being 6 inches and no MicroSD card slot for having good battery life and camera. Sony Xperia Z5 can be considered also good for its battery but camera can be a little disappointing.

Thanks for the recommendations, i think 6 inches phone would be hard to fit in my pocket though. How about oneplustwo? Is it worth for its price?

Honor 7, contrary to the fact that it is the best-value-to-money phone, it can be bad at some points. Especially if you are planning to play graphically-intensive games a lot. But it would be of course still good enough if fingerprint scanner is a priority. G8 can worse than the Honor 7 IMO.

Thanks for the suggestion! The only thing that holds me back for Honor7 is the 16GB rom which I think might be not enough for me tongue.gif

At this point you better off get yourself a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2/3 or Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced. A little over your budget and also non-Samsung, but would worth the buck. Samsung phones are best bought at higher budget, but you badly need one... then might recommend you a second-hand Samsung Galaxy S4.

I would recommend Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced. You can buy it under RM 500 at Lazada with 15LINE code via Lazada app. If you are on a tight budget than you might have to buy the Asus Zenfone C 2 GB RAM + 16 GB. Not as strong as the Redmi 2, but should suffice.

The problem is the battery, RAM and internal storage itself. This phone only have 1800 mAh battery, 768 MB RAM and 4 GB internal storage, which are below adequate. If you really need a good phone, you better off go with the Lenovo A5000, Lenovo A6000 Plus or Asus Zenfone Go. Lenovo A5000 has big battery and pretty much the most basic phone you need with big battery. Lenovo A6000 Plus has the best value out there, but the Zenfone Go is not that shabby.

TS wanted a bigger phone as possible , with Redmi Note 2 TS got a big screen and a very clear screen (less pixelated) , and with extra RM30-70 bucks i dont see a single reason y dont go for redmi note 2 AP instead with the much bigger battery and vastly faster processor , rmb we are talking about just RM30-70 , satu gadget selling redmi note 2 AP new set at RM539 .

Lenovo A6000 Plus - 5" HD , 2300mah , snapdragon 410 (Budget)
Asus Zenfone Go - 5" HD , 2070mah , mediatek MT6580 (Budget)
Redmi Note 2 - 5.5" Full HD , 3000mah , Helio X10 (Once Flagship)

I really dont see a single reason y TS not opt for the redmi note 2 , if he is able to shell out slightly more smile.gif and for better peace of mind especially elder .

Asus Zenfone 2 (4 GB RAM) should be okay for you, but it doesn't really compete with the S6. You can get it now for less than RM 1000, and save even more with MONYET100 coupon. If you are on a tight budget, go with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2.

Galaxy J7 is best Samsung phones you can get less than RM 1000. But keep in mind that there are better phones out there, so if you feel like that it is not too worth it, I would recommend some other phones, e.g: Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and Lenovo A7000+.

Almost like the Redmi Note 2, except that it has a bigger battery, metal body and fingerprint sensor at the sacrifice of non-removable battery and no MicroSD slot and scratch-resistant screen.

What happens if there is no MicroSD slot?

Meaning that you are unable to expand your storage. Not a big problem if you don't do lots of photography and gaming, but if you did a lot, then that would be troublesome, especially if the internal storage itself is small.

Given the fact this is 2014's flagship and also upgradeable to Android 5.0 Lollipop with plans to upgrade it to Android 6.0 Marshmallow, this should be an okay phone, since there is some extra features (which is water-resistant) there.

Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced is a good phone for usage, but if you need more specs, then I can recommend Alcatel Flash 2 for you.

Hey guys need suggestions for a phone:

Budget: RM 1300 - RM 1800(Cheaper better obviously)
Brand: Any will do (Android)
Spec: Prefer performance phones for multitasking and a good battery life. Not picky with camera anything decent will do. So basically powerful processor and generous RAM (3GB and above)
Size: Any but not too large.

Currently preference is towards the OnePlus 2. Does it fit my requirements? Any better suggestions?

Thanks Sifu's

Lenovo A916 came close to the A850+. I came close of having one, until someone told me that the phone is not that good as expected. Currently using Asus Zenfone C, was happy enough about it (hopefully you wouldn't mind of my post being off-topic), although I could have gotten a Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced.....

Hi guys,

Need some advice. Looking for a phone with 5.5" display, min 2GB RAM. Looking for something with a decent battery life (last 1.5 to 2 days per charge) as don't want to lug a power bank around.
With a decent camera as I use it take close up shots of electronic boards I work on.
Considering the Redmi Note 3 so my budget is probably RM800 or lower.
Not considering the Redmi Note 2 as looks like Xiaomi is dumping them in Malaysia. Someone at the Xiaomi Forum received a defective Redmi Note 2 (SIM Card connector damaged) but they haven't replaced or repaired his phone yet.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks

Yes, albeit imported. Imported phones usually only get warranty by the seller, not the manufacturer. Go for J7 if battery, sunlight legibility and camera is important to you. P8 lite is not that good, but the camera surely stand out. Redmi Note 3 would be a good all-rounder most notably for its performance.

Thanks Sunnychai99,
any comments about the Asus Zenfone 2, 4GB/64GB version.
Saw one at gemfive that looks like a good deal after the discount (RM120 off) bring the price down to RM1280 - RM120 = RM1160. but not including GST. damm.
http://www.gemfive.com/my/asus-zenfone-2-f...ram-64gb-silver

May consider this but have never bought anything from gemfive & don;t know how reliable they are.

Maybe can consider the 4GB/32GB version which is RM1105 - RM120 = RM985 not including GST.

Should be good for multitasking and has a good value for money. For the camera, it shouldn't be that bad and for the battery, it's close to average, but remedied with it's quick charging.

2. Budget: Sub RM1000.

3. Specs: Superior camera.

4. Type/Size: Doesn't matter.

I'm looking for a cheap secondary phone just for photography. The only thing that I'm disappointed with my Galaxy Note 3 is the camera, the photos taken at low light are like sh*t.

I saw some forumer selling Lumia 1020 around RM800. I don't mind second hand phone.

If there are better/cheaper option please advice. smile.gif

Too bad if there's nothing from other OEM can beat a 3 years old phone in term of camera (and price).

Mostly all OEM put their best camera onto their high end phone, which is much costlier than 1020. Sigh.

1020 is high end phone .
Price is pretty high end also although the spec isnt due to its a windows phone .
*
I thought WP is such a uncommon OS therefore the price should go down steadily but apparently not the case for 1020. Even the newer second hand 1520 is priced similar to a second hand 1020. At this point I might consider 1520 already, the camera isn't bad either.

Or can anyone suggest me an Android phone with similar or better camera? nod.gif

Asus Zenfone Zoom would be a good idea albeit more expensive.

Haha, I have considered this phone too, but 5.5" is too big for me. Learned my lesson from using the redmi note 4g for over a year. Any suggestion at 5" at most? Thanks smile.gif

Coming from old lumia (wp8), now not interested in anymore microsoft products. Would appreciate some recommendation, there are too many phones now! confused.gif

1. Any reputable brand
2. Less than 1k
3. Good battery life, most important, followed by good call quality
4. Would prefer 5" or smaller but can handle up to 5.5" or so

also waiting for price of redmi note 3 to be announced...

Your only choices would be:

Galaxy J1 Ace - RM 389
Galaxy J2 - RM 579

Don't expect smooth performance on low end Samsung phones though, they're known to have sluggish performance. One of my relative bought a J1 Ace, and it was crap, sold it off after few weeks lol. To reduce the lag, don't install too many apps, I guess? biggrin.gif

For Lenovo phones, it depends on which phone you're using. Those older cheap Lenovo phones are known to have issues, just avoid those. Fortunately, I have the chance to use my uncle's Vibe P1m for few weeks. Battery life is excellent, display is good, speaker is acceptable, just that the camera is so-so and screen is a bit unresponsive (but hey, it's a RM 500 phone). So far so good for me.

Xiaomi phones are known for the bang for the buck, but the known flaw is that the software is not optimized well. I experienced that before on the Redmi 1S with 1GB RAM, the software was RAM hungry. But since they update their phones every month, I think it will be addressed after few updates. Since Xiaomi just launched their Redmi Note 3, you should consider it, 16GB/2GB RAM (RM749). Just order it from Xiaomi Malaysia if you want it.

As for Samsung, not being a hater or something, but just avoid it.

Not much cheap phones with nano sim in the market right now, but I found 2. biggrin.gif

ZTE Blade A452 (RM 399)
Xiaomi Redmi 3 (RM 559 imported set by Satugadget)

If you want ZTE, better buy in Lowyat Plaza (Ground floor, there's a ZTE stall at the opposite side of Sony store), just to save your time cuz ZTE phones are generally hard to find aside from Lowyat Plaza. smile.gif

I think that's a problem with MIUI (the name of Xiaomi's user interface), I've experienced that kind of problem on the Redmi 1S before. Xiaomi is known for not optimizing their software well. But they do update their phones monthly, it can be fixed with a software update, so no worries.

If you want a phone with good specs for under RM 1k, Redmi Note 3 is the best choice for now.

Hi, need opinion on Asus Zenfone Selfie ZD551KL. Is it a good phone? Especially the UI is it easy and nice to use?

I am comparing this phone with the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 3GB Ram. Which is more worthwhile?

How's the reliability of Xiaomi phones in general? Thinking about probably getting Redmi Note 3 or Huawei Honor 5X. Heard good things about Huawei so far since I'm looking for a phone for a long-term use. Budget <RM1k

Yeah, Zenfone Selfie's camera is slightly better than Redmi Note 3. But I think the winner still goes to the Redmi Note 3, unless you're willing to sacrifice the better performance for the slightly better camera.

Hi, need opinion on Asus Zenfone Selfie ZD551KL. Is it a good phone? Especially the UI is it easy and nice to use?

I am comparing this phone with the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 3GB Ram. Which is more worthwhile?

Thank you.

Yes.

So, the Redmi Note 3 should be good enough.

Thanks for your input. I just bought Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML 4GB Ram 64GB Rom since I love large storage capacity. Going to plaster a 64GB MicroSD on top of that 64GB internal storage. No more running out of space. thumbup.gif I tend to have face this problem with my current phone although it has 16GB internal storage and I added a 32GB microSD. Hehe tongue.gif I've heard that the Zenfone 2 ZE551ML could even use 128GB microSD. Wow.

Another reason why I went with Zenfone 2 instead of Redmi Note 3 is that because Asus is going to upgrade it to Marshmallow in Q2. rclxm9.gif

Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 - (16GB/2GB RAM - RM 749) (32GB/3GB RAM - RM 849)
Honor 5X - (RM 899)
Lenovo Vibe P1 - (RM 999)

The price of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 is from Xiaomi Malaysia, I suggest you to buy only from www.mi.com/my because it's guaranteed original and you might not get that kind of price from other 3rd party sellers. Just to save your hassle. smile.gif

Prices of Honor 5X and Lenovo Vibe P1 are from Satugadget.

It's hard to find a phone with good front camera that's under 4.5", as most phones with that size come with only 2MP front camera. unsure.gif

I would recommend the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, if you ask me. It's one of the best mid range in the market right now.

Or you could also consider the Wiko Fever 4G if you want that additional LED flash for your selfies.

Best? I assume that would be flagship, I guess?

Currently in our market, Xperia Z5 series (Z5 Compact, Z5, Z5 Premium).

But technically, Xperia X series (XA, X, X Performance) because flagship which replaced the Z series.

K3 Note. But remember, do not buy the Chinese version, you'll get many bloatwares and Chinese version is not suitable for international users.

Or you could try the A7000+ (international version of K3 Note), but it is slightly more expensive.

In terms of performance, Mate 8 is a beast, it can even beat the Note 5 and Z5 and it's just few miles behind the S7 Edge. Just one thing though, in terms of gaming, it would be slightly weaker because of the GPU in the Mate 8, but it won't really affect much.

I was gonna recommend you this as well, but it's over your budget.

If you can spend more, get this one instead, it's a good tablet.

Find 7 is a bargain for the price, but the problem is can you still find any sellers selling it? If you're lucky and found it, go for it then.

Otherwise,
Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (32GB/3GB RAM) - (RM 849)
OnePlus X - (RM 1149)
Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) - (RM 1399)
Honor 7 Enhanced - (RM 1499)

Thanks so much. 1 final question. I'm really tempted to get the s7 edge. In your opinion, do you think the price is justified? As in is it worth it to spend sub 3k for it?

For me, I wouldn't spend so much on a smartphone lol, but that's just me. But still, the price is understandable, mainly because of the technology being used on the S7 Edge (the curved screen obviously). Overall, the S7 Edge is a good flagship phone.

If you're all in for the curved screen, go for it. Otherwise, go for the normal S7 (RM 2699) instead, if you want a Samsung.

Why not get the Alcatel Flash 2 - (RM 549)? It's the best phone in it's class, audio is decent for the price.

If you can add RM 49 more, get this one instead.

Aside from bigger screen, the Alcatel Flash 2 is better in most aspect.

3. Specs. - good CPU and GPU chipset, better above 400dpi because i like to watch clips and movies on my phone. personally not a heavy game but would like to be able to play games like TempleRun, fighting games and strategy games. Good connectivity withterthering and Hotspot as Well
4. Type/Size. - 5'' to 6'' screen

Hi guys. I kept seeing that many of you guys recommended Huawei Honor 5x. To be honest, i'm planning to get Honor 7 Enhanced or maybe LG G4 but may i know the diff between cpu and gpu of both phones? Honor 7 is Kirin 935 and 5x is Snapdragon 616 while G4 has Snapdragon 808. Which one is better?


What about Mate 8? does it worth forking out another RM600 to get it?

Of course You guys can also recommend me some other phones based on my preferences. Thanks guys !

Do not get the LG G4, it has bootloop issue, you will regret.

Honor 7 Enhanced is better than Honor 5X hands down, if you wanna save some money, get the Honor 7 Enhanced.

However, if you can fork out RM 600 more, Mate 8 is the way to go.

hi everyone..
i'm planning on getting a smartphone for my dad, budget is about rm500..
as an old man, the things he used most would be whatsapps, youtubes, facebooks and taking photos with the camera.. no need for gaming..
most important it would be lag-free.. and hopefully can last more than 2 years.. his current iphone4 is too laggy..
any recommendations?
thank you~

For low end phones, lag-free would be almost impossible, but there are definitely ones that can keep lag to minimal.

If you can fork out another RM 49, I would highly recommend you to get the Alcatel Flash 2 - (RM 549). Decent camera and speaker, close to stock Android.

Im not a really pro guy on phone but i take it that Mate 8 screen have only about 368 dpi. Will it overall like reduce the liveliness and vividness of vids or movie? I think Honor 7 is above 400 dpi~

A friend of mine kept telling me to go for s7 Edge. swear to god he's not the "local" ambassador of Samsung, but does Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge lives up to its hype, or even its price tag? Definitely not going to get it but just wanna know the 5 cents of it though.....

Hi guys. I kept seeing that many of you guys recommended Huawei Honor 5x. To be honest, i'm planning to get Honor 7 Enhanced or maybe LG G4 but may i know the diff between cpu and gpu of both phones? Honor 7 is Kirin 935 and 5x is Snapdragon 616 while G4 has Snapdragon 808. Which one is better?
What about Mate 8? does it worth forking out another RM600 to get it?

Of course You guys can also recommend me some other phones based on my preferences. Thanks guys !

hi everyone..
i'm planning on getting a smartphone for my dad, budget is about rm500..
as an old man, the things he used most would be whatsapps, youtubes, facebooks and taking photos with the camera.. no need for gaming..
most important it would be lag-free.. and hopefully can last more than 2 years.. his current iphone4 is too laggy..
any recommendations?
thank you~

Im not a really pro guy on phone but i take it that Mate 8 screen have only about 368 dpi. Will it overall like reduce the liveliness and vividness of vids or movie? I think Honor 7 is above 400 dpi~

A friend of mine kept telling me to go for s7 Edge. swear to god he's not the "local" ambassador of Samsung, but does Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge lives up to its hype, or even its price tag? Definitely not going to get it but just wanna know the 5 cents of it though.....
*
There's not much of a difference, really. Due to Mate 8 having bigger screen than Honor 7, of course the ppi amount will be lesser on the Mate 8, but the difference is not significant. Both are using the same IPS-Neo display as well. All in all, Mate 8's screen quality is fine. You should go get your hands on the Mate 8 in the Huawei store to see whether you're satisfied with the screen quality.

S7 Edge is a good phone, no doubt. The big impact on the price is due to the curved screen. If curved screen isn't important to you and you're all in for big amount of ppi, go have a look at the regular S7 (not Edge) for RM 2699 as well, it has a whooping Quad HD screen with 577 ppi. smile.gif

Shouldn't be too bad. I would prefer going with the A7000 Plus, as it do offer a good screen resolution (1080p) and big screen at 5.5 inches, which is more to a necessity for old people. Also, A7000 Plus is the same with K3 Note.

I think RN3 has the best specs for the price range, but I've never used Xiaomi phones before and it seems like MIUI takes some getting used to, plus friends said Mi phones becomes faulty (read: not just lag) after a few months usage.

Look no further than the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, but remember to get the Malaysian variant instead of China variant.
http://www.mi.com/my/note3/
MIUI indeed needs to take some time getting used to. However, you can just install a launcher over it. One more known issue about MIUI is that it's not optimized well, so you might see some minor bugs but it can be fixed with software updates.

If you need something that feels right at home, go with Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) or the Note 4 (if you can find an original new set below your maximum budget).

Don't get the Mi4i, it's problematic. Get the Redmi Note 3 instead.

Build quality wise, the Redmi Note 3 is better IMO.

As for the software update, it's typical Xiaomi, they update their phones monthly (mostly are bug fixes, new features, optimization etc.). However, don't expect much on new Android versions, you might get one or two.

Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced would be he best choice, albeit still on KitKat. Lenovo A2010 should be also good, since it's on Lollipop and has a 64-bit CPU.

A7 2016 is quite expensive compared to a lot of the mid range phones and even some high end devices.

In your case, Honor 7 enhanced is clearly better than the Samsung A7 2016. It's performance beats the A7 completely. Also this model comes with Android 6.0 out of the box.

The A7 however has a nicer screen and premium build quality. Also it's battery optimization beats a lot of the competition out there with high praises given for its battery life from multiple sources but you're stuck with android 5.1 at the moment, though Samsung has plans to upgrade it.

You can get the Honor 7 enhanced online for about 1.4 ~ 1.5k without discount, whereas the A7 2016 starts around 1.5 ~ 1.8k. I bought my A7 2016 at 1499 after discount.

HTC 10 - Wait for the official launch if u can.
Huawei P9 series - It will be available here by end of this month (probably 20th May according to some tech sites).
S7 Edge - Good phone, enough said.

There are few flagships will be launching here soon as well...
Sony Xperia X series - Will be available here sometime in June
LG G5 - No confirmation or news about it.

Or you could also consider the iPhone 6s if you're okay with iOS. biggrin.gif

Been looking at everyone's suggestion and narrowed my picks down to

Xiaomi redmi 2 enhanced
Lenovo A6000 plus
Alcatel flash 2 (the price is slightly higher but don't mind topping up)

What would you all pick among these 3? I'm totally noob to rooting or flashing rom or anything like that. Prefer a user-friendly phone.

Alcatel Flash 2.

It's running on stock Android with just few Alcatel apps, it's easier to use compared to the other two.

For the first phone, I would recommend Alcatel Flash 2 and Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (It's imported though, so don't confuse it with the local one.) As for the other one, the closest one would be the Lenovo A2010. Also recommended would be Leagoo Alfa 6 and Asus Zenfone GO (4.5" variant), if you don't mind not having LTE.

Been looking at everyone's suggestion and narrowed my picks down to

Xiaomi redmi 2 enhanced
Lenovo A6000 plus
Alcatel flash 2 (the price is slightly higher but don't mind topping up)

What would you all pick among these 3? I'm totally noob to rooting or flashing rom or anything like that. Prefer a user-friendly phone.
*
I would go with Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced because it does offer some good updates. Alcatel Flash 2 is decent. Lenovo A6000+ would be last on my list.

Nexus 6p, the camera is better is low light, you will get Android updates faster, and it does not have bloatware that will slow down the performance of the phone.

Samsung Galaxy S7 is the best out of the three. Choose Huawei Nexus 6P if you want a complete vanilla Android. Huawei Mate 8 is the last on my list.

It doesn’t have optical image stabilization but it does have laser auto-focus and an improved sensor for better low light shooting. The images will be sharper, but the color will be off.

Redmi note 3 has faster processor,but despite the larger battery life, the octa core is going to drain the battery faster. Asus Zenfone has microSD card slow while Redmi Note 3 doesnt. Camera wise is the same. Ram on Asus is better (4gb) compared to Redmi Note 3 (3gb)

Asus Zenfone is better.

Nope, previously I've used Honor 4C for quite sometime, I've dropped it like 3 times. Despite the plastic case, everything is still sturdy including the buttons. So I'll say Huawei phone is pretty good durability-wise. Perhaps you can try asking in Honor 7 official thread about the durability here icon_rolleyes.gif

If you would like a very good selfie camera, crisp display and, audio quality, go for the Zenfone Selfie. Samsung Galaxy J7 is good for its front camera and battery life. Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 is great for performance, display and software updates. If I can choose which was better, I would go with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3.

That depends. The bigger space, better multitasking capabilities, audio and camera makes the Zenfone 2 a favorable choice. Whereas the better battery life, better performance and some good software updates would make the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 a good one. Personally the Redmi Note 3 is better because the Zenfone 2 utilizes Intel Atom chipset, which wasn't a good idea if you ask me.

LG Nexus 5X is good if you want software support from Google, which also mean you can get the latest OS first. The Redmi Note 3 is quite a good all-rounder.
