Xiaomi Redmi 9A
RM 150.00
Price last checked: 15 Jun 2022. Confirm current price before buying.
Budget hardware with a battery that outlasts most phones twice its price. The Helio G25 chipset and 2GB RAM keep things basic, fine for calls, messaging, and light browsing, but not built for heavy multitasking or gaming. 32GB of storage is tight too, though the microSDXC slot lets you add more without giving up a SIM slot.
The 6.53-inch IPS LCD runs at 720 x 1600, sharp enough for everyday use at this size. A single 13MP rear camera with PDAF handles daytime shots reasonably, while the 5MP front camera covers basic selfies and video calls. Xiaomi Redmi 9A price in Malaysia starts from RM150, which explains the trade-offs.
What stands out is the 5000 mAh battery. Even with a modest 10W charging speed, that capacity means you're not reaching for the charger daily. It's a phone built around lasting through the day rather than doing everything at once.
