Sony XA1 Ultra
RM 1,899.00
Price last checked: 23 Apr 2018. Confirm current price before buying.
Sony XA1 Ultra price in Malaysia starts from RM1899, putting it in the mid-range bracket alongside the Helio P20 chipset that drives it. That octa-core Mediatek processor pairs with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, and you can add up to 256GB more via microSD if that's not enough room. The 6-inch IPS LCD panel runs at full HD resolution, 367 ppi, so text and video stay sharp without pushing into flagship pricing.
Camera-wise, this one stands out for its front setup: a 16MP selfie camera with OIS and autofocus, paired with laser and phase detection autofocus on the 23MP rear shooter. That's a lot of focusing hardware for both ends of the phone. Battery capacity is modest at 2700 mAh, so heavy users may need to top up mid-day, but the phone runs Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box and includes NFC, GPS with GLONASS, and USB Type-C for charging and data.
