Budget buyers looking at entry-level Android phones will find the Live G500TG built around a Mediatek MT6580 chipset paired with 2GB RAM, quad-core at 1.3GHz. It's not a phone for heavy multitasking, but the 16GB storage (expandable to 64GB via microSD) gives some room to work with. The 5.0-inch IPS LCD screen runs at 720 x 1280 pixels, about 294 ppi, which is fine for everyday use like messaging and browsing.
On the camera side, there's an 8MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, plus a 2MP front camera for basic selfies. The 2070 mAh battery is modest by today's standards, so heavy users should expect to charge midday. It ships with Android 5.1 Lollipop and supports dual SIM, Wi-Fi, GPS and 3G HSPA data. Asus Live G500TG price in Malaysia starts from RM499, and it comes in Rosa, Azul and Yellow colour options.
