RM 1,885.00
Price last checked: 23 Dec 2018. Confirm current price before buying.
Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) price in Malaysia starts from RM1885, positioning it as a mid-range option built around battery life and display quality rather than raw processing muscle. The Snapdragon 652 chipset, paired with 4GB RAM and Adreno 510 graphics, handles everyday apps and multitasking without much fuss, though it's not a gaming flagship. Storage sits at 32GB, but the dedicated microSD slot lets you push that up to 256GB if you shoot a lot of photos or video.
The 6.0-inch Super AMOLED screen runs at 1080 x 1920 resolution with 367 ppi density, so text and colours stay sharp and punchy. On the back, a 16MP f/1.9 camera with OIS handles low light better than most phones from this era, while the 8MP front camera covers selfies and video calls.
Battery is where this phone stands out: a 5000 mAh cell that should comfortably outlast a full day of use. Rounding things out are NFC, a fingerprint sensor, and a 3.5mm jack with noise-cancelling mic, all wrapped in a Gorilla Glass 4 back panel weighing 210g.
