Price last checked: 24 May 2016. Confirm current price before buying.
A Snapdragon MSM8228 chipset runs the show here, paired with an Adreno 305 GPU and just 1GB RAM, so this is a phone built for basic tasks rather than heavy multitasking. The 4.7-inch IPS LCD screen runs at 720 x 1280 resolution, giving a pixel density around 312ppi, which was decent for its time. Storage sits at 8GB, but there's a microSD slot that takes you up to 32GB more.
The rear camera is an 8MP unit with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video, while the front camera is a modest 1.6MP for video calls. A 2000mAh battery keeps things running, and dual SIM support means you can juggle two lines on one device. Xiaomi Hongmi 1s price in Malaysia starts from RM499.
It ships with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean out of the box, and comes in Black, Chinese Red, Metallic Gray, and a few panel color options including blue, green, and yellow. At 158g and 9.9mm thick, it's light and easy to carry.
