Budget hardware defines this one. The Unisoc SC9832E chipset and 2GB of RAM put the Meizu C9 firmly in entry-level territory, fine for calls, messaging and light browsing but not much beyond that. Storage is capped at 16GB, though a microSD slot lets you push that up to 128GB if you need more room for photos and apps.
The 5.45-inch IGZO IPS LCD runs at 720 x 1440 with an 18:9 ratio, giving you a taller screen without the ppi count of pricier phones. Camera-wise, you get a 13MP rear shooter and an 8MP front camera, both capped at f/2.2, decent for daylight shots rather than low-light work.
Battery capacity sits at 3000mAh and it's removable, a rare feature these days. Meizu C9 price in Malaysia starts from RM259, and it ships with Android 8.0 Oreo running Flyme UI, plus dual SIM support for those who split work and personal lines.
