An Exynos 7420 Octa chipset paired with 3GB RAM still handles everyday tasks fine, and you get a choice of 32GB, 64GB, or 128GB storage with no expansion slot. The 5.1-inch Super AMOLED screen packs a Quad HD resolution at 577 ppi, sharp enough that text and photos look crisp even up close. Samsung Galaxy S6 price in Malaysia starts from RM499, which puts this flagship-era hardware well within budget territory now.
The 16MP rear camera comes with OIS and an f/1.9 aperture, useful for steadier low-light shots, while the 5MP front camera covers video calls and selfies. Battery capacity sits at 2550 mAh, modest by today's standards but reasonable given the compact 138g body and 6.8mm thickness.
It runs Android 5.0.2 out of the box, upgradable to 5.1.1, and still includes a fingerprint sensor, NFC, and Samsung Pay support. Gorilla Glass 4 covers the back panel, and it comes in White Pearl, Black Sapphire, Gold Platinum, or Blue Topaz.
