Price last checked: 5 Sept 2017. Confirm current price before buying.
Samsung Galaxy C5 price in Malaysia starts from RM999, positioning it as a mid-ranger built around a Snapdragon 617 chipset paired with 4GB RAM. You get a choice of 32GB or 64GB storage, plus a microSD slot for another 128GB if that's not enough. The 5.2-inch Super AMOLED screen runs at full HD resolution with a sharp 424 ppi density, and at 6.7mm thick with 143g weight, it's an easy phone to hold.
The rear camera sits at 16MP with an f/1.9 aperture and dual-LED flash, while the front camera matches that same f/1.9 aperture at 8MP for selfies. Video tops out at 1080p30, nothing exotic but serviceable for everyday clips.
Battery capacity is a modest 2600mAh, non-removable, so heavy users will want to keep a charger close by. It runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box, with a fingerprint sensor, NFC, dual SIM support and LTE rounding out the package. It's available in Silver, Gray, Gold and Rose Gold.
