Sony's mid-ranger pairs an octa-core 2.0GHz Mediatek MT6795 chipset with 3GB RAM and PowerVR G6200 graphics, enough for everyday multitasking without pretending to be a flagship. Storage sits at 16GB, but the microSD slot takes cards up to 200GB, so that's not much of a limitation. The 5-inch IPS LCD screen runs a sharp 1080p resolution at 441 ppi, tucked into a body that's just 7.6mm thick.
Camera specs are where this phone stands out for its class. A 21.5MP rear sensor with phase detection autofocus handles stills, and the 13MP front camera even supports autofocus and 1080p video, unusual for a selfie camera at this price point. Sony Xperia M5 price in Malaysia starts from RM919. Battery capacity is a modest 2600mAh, and it ships with Android 5.0 Lollipop, NFC, and LTE Cat4 connectivity built in.
