Hi all sifus, need some recommendation for a new phone for my mom. Requirements as below:

1. Brand: Xiaomi/Redmi. Can recco if Oppo or Vivo is worth trying.
2. Cost: between RM500-800
3. Specs: Big screen, decent camera, very good battery life, smooth UI / as lag-less as possible.
4. Type/size: Anything more than 5 inch.
5. Usage: Phone calls, WhatsApp, emails, snapping pictures for work, video streaming on FB & YT, Waze for work travelling.

My mom is currently using redmi 5 plus and her battery is dying (can’t last half a day). Getting sluggish too.

Being an old lady, big screen and a lag-less phone is very important as she is quite impatient. A simple UI helps too hence I was thinking gettting back Xiaomi / redmi since she’s familiar with it.

Camera can be decent as long as HD enough and colours are good cuz her work need to show colour comparison between fabrics.

Thanks in advance!

1. Brand: Any brand

2. Budget: Under RM300

3. Specs: Flip phone. OK with feature phone/semi smartphone - would be nice if has 4G and WiFi.

4. Type/Size: Flip phone.

Looking to get a spare flip phone for nostalgic purposes. Any recco? Read about Nokia 2720 flip phone but cant seem to find ori stock. On Shopee it's selling for > RM600 which is too much for a spare phone.

Cheers!
