ZTE Blade S6

Under the hood sits a Snapdragon 615, an octa-core setup pairing four 1.7GHz Cortex-A53 cores with four 1.0GHz cores, backed by Adreno 405 graphics. That's paired with 2GB of RAM and 16GB storage, which you can stretch further with a microSD card up to 64GB. The 5-inch IPS LCD panel runs at 720 x 1280 resolution, giving a pixel density around 294 ppi, decent enough for everyday browsing and video on a budget screen.

ZTE Blade S6 price in Malaysia starts from RM399, putting it firmly in entry-level territory. The 13MP rear camera comes with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5MP front camera handles selfies and video calls. A 2400mAh battery keeps things running, and the phone ships with Android 5.0.1 Lollipop out of the box.

Dual SIM support, LTE Cat4 connectivity, and a microUSB port round out the package. At 134g and 7.7mm thick, it's light enough for daily carry without feeling flimsy for its price point.
