Motorola DROID Mini

RM 1,975.00

Price last checked: 20 May 2015. Confirm current price before buying.

Compact phones with real specs are rare, and the DROID Mini fits that gap. It runs a Snapdragon S4 Pro chipset with a dual-core 1.7GHz Krait processor and 2GB RAM, enough for Android 4.2 at launch, with an upgrade path to KitKat and a planned Lollipop update. The 4.3-inch display packs 720 x 1280 pixels into a small panel, giving it a sharp 342ppi density despite the modest size.

The 10MP rear camera shoots 1080p video and includes autofocus with LED flash, while the front 2MP camera handles basic selfie duty. Battery capacity sits at 2000mAh, which is reasonable given the phone's small footprint and 130g weight. Motorola DROID Mini price in Malaysia starts from RM1975.

Storage is fixed at 16GB with no card slot, so what you buy is what you get. Connectivity covers LTE, NFC, GPS with GLONASS, and Wi-Fi ac, which was solid coverage for a phone this size back in 2013.
