This thing runs Helio G81. This thing scores only around 30% of SD865 made in 2020. The SD690 that was released in 2020, which btw is an entry chip and is completely obsolete today, is still faster than the chip this phone use. Yes, it's only going to take calls but don't make things hard for people who work for you. Don't have to overspend but don't underspend until it's hard for people to do their job. I'm not sure if you've ever tried making or receiving calls from a lagging phone but it's not something you want to go through especially when it comes to work. Just my 2 cents.

Currently runs Android 15. 2 OS update promise. During sales like 6/6, can get the 4gb ram/128gb storage variant at shopee for around rm250. If you've got plenty of Lazada coins, better buy at lazada, can get below rm250. Remember to only buy from official Shopee or Lazada shop ya.
