Sony Xperia X

RM 1,999.00

Price last checked: 30 Nov 2016. Confirm current price before buying.

Sony Xperia X price in Malaysia starts from RM1999, putting it in the mid-range bracket where the Snapdragon 650 chipset does the heavy lifting. That's a hexa-core setup with four efficiency cores and two performance cores, paired with 3GB RAM and a choice of 32GB or 64GB storage, expandable via microSD up to 256GB. The 5-inch IPS LCD screen runs at full HD resolution with a sharp 441 ppi density, compact enough for one-handed use.

Camera-wise, the 23MP rear sensor with phase detection autofocus was a standout spec for its time, backed by a 13MP front camera capable of 1080p video. Battery capacity sits at 2620 mAh, modest by today's standards but reasonable given the phone's slim 7.9mm build and 153g weight.

Other niceties include a fingerprint sensor, NFC, dual-band Wi-Fi, and a 3.5mm jack with 24-bit audio support. It ships with Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, with Nougat as a planned update.
