vivo y91i

Vivo y91i price in Malaysia starts from RM579, putting it firmly in budget territory. Under the hood is a Mediatek Helio P22 chipset paired with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage, enough for basic apps and everyday use, though you'll want that microSD slot (up to 256GB) if you're saving photos or media. The 6.2-inch IPS LCD runs at 720 x 1520 pixels, a modest resolution but standard for phones at this price point back in 2018.

On the back, there's a 13MP main camera with PDAF paired with a 2MP depth sensor for portrait shots, while the front gets an 8MP camera for selfies and video calls. Video tops out at 1080p30, no higher frame rates here.

Battery capacity is where this phone holds its own: a 4030mAh cell that should comfortably get most users through a full day. It runs Android 8.1 Oreo with Funtouch OS 4.5 on top, and comes in Zixia Red, Aurora Red, and Blue.
