Usage for digital id and also some platform that force me to install mobile app to access.

Also as backup phone in case the phone I install all bank apps crashed or spoilt.

Currently have unifi bebas before the wow promotion start. I am damm lucky only a month before the wow 5g promotion start I apply I get the old bebas sim card.

Also google forcing me to use QR code for gmail access now. Total bullshit.

The requirement must have 2 nano sim and also a memory card slot. Not sure now since most phones only have 1 nano sim and 1 nano sim/memory card slot troublesome keep swapping sim card each month to use the other nanon sim card.

Might need more than 1 phone. Confirm need more than 1 phone.

Price below RM1000 the more cheap better. Dont need powerful phones dont even play games on it only use it for mobile apps. so phone update must last a few years, dont want wate money and buy new ones later on.

Must be android. Got any tiny android phone that can fit into pocket like a nokia keypad phone size? This one only use for payment while eating and shopping. I see brother always almost left the phone at cashier counter or table or shopping his android too big to fit into his trouser always hand carry.

The phone must have 5G cause unifi sim card only works best in 5G, 4G speed for internet really terrible. RM3 for 15Gb per month or 8GB longevity work best in 5G so far I tested.

Also suggest me a keypad phone too cause I got one sim for main call and receive call usage.

So requirement
1) Phone for mobile apps, digital id and also google qr code and google google authenticator must be android.

2) Phone for payment eating shopping outside can be any phone as long as its small and work. Ok must be small to fit into trouser or shorts.

3) A keypad phone for calls receiving and calling phone size must be small to fit into trouser or shorts.

## ✅ Suggested Setup (Best Combo Under Budget)

### ✔ Device 1 – Main App Phone:

**Samsung Galaxy A15 5G**
(dual SIM + microSD + long updates)
💰 RM799–850

### ✔ Device 2 – Small Android for payments:

**Unihertz Jelly 2E**
(super compact)
💰 RM750–900
*or if too expensive → Cubot Pocket Mini (RM500 range)*

### ✔ Device 3 – Keypad phone:

**Nokia 105 4G**
💰 RM150

✅ Total Budget:
**About RM1400–1600** if using Jelly 2E
Or **Below RM1300** if using Cubot Pocket Mini

If you want to reduce cost even more, I can optimize the combo — just let me know which part to cut down (main phone / small phone / keypad phone).

Used honor 90 5g also around rm899, very good phone for under rm1000

Get Xperia la if want small phone.
Shopee berlambak second hand

If you opt for secondhand phones, you get a better bang for your buck. Like the Pixel 5 or 6.

Most importantly, do get a phone with NFC feature. Usually, cheap phones usually don't have this feature!

is xiaomi or other chinese brand good?

I only use Samsung and Epal before.

xiaomi not bad , but you`ll need to go the settings and turn off some settings , else will get ads , recommendation etc on the phone ..

Honor x9c. Not bad as a backup. Got 5g and nfc. Got it for 7++ during 6/6 sale

I will wait for Honor X9D til it is <rm800, probably 6 months.

If budget total is 4k something then

1. Get a Redmi 15 5g

2. Samsung s25 (get when got deals on 10.10, 11.11 or whatever)

3. Nokia 105 4g

For 2. , if budget limited, consider used s23 or s22, however for latter need to consider that after update os to latest ui will become lag sometimes and battery hard to last past half day (if used heavily) or one whole day even used casually (blame these on shit Samseng snapdragon and small battery, double de buff)

Yes honor x9c definitely worth it 😍❤️

Get the Samsung A series for long update. No need worry compability.

But why need the Micro sd slot? If dual sim, most don’t get dedicated card slot already.
