Pros and Cons

Honor 50 Lite

Strengths

It's a fantastic price for the kind of device you're getting, especially since it looks pretty good as well.
You get a very unique look here at the back straight up it looks like aluminum so I think that looks pretty cool
The LCD display is one of the best in the market right now with strong brightness levels and contrast levels are especially good for an LCD panel like this
The price point of under 1000 ringgit is very special, offering a great value for money
You can't really compare it to the cheapest phones in the market but you're actually getting a pretty solid build quality device here
The camera performance is decent, taking good pictures in the day and night with no major complaints
The fast charging support of 66 watt is still fairly fast despite not being the fastest

Weaknesses

It's being powered by an outdated Snapdragon 662 processor which can feel slow through day-to-day use
Performance is somewhat lacking, especially considering today's standards
Pillar shape cut out at the top left corner can look a bit awkward with only one selfie camera
The macro lens and depth sensor are not very useful in most scenarios
Haptics system is normal and unimpressive for a budget device like this
Performance may be compromised by an outdated processor, which might be frustrating for some users
You can't expect it to be very high performing, especially since the price point is under 1000 ringgit

Honor 50 Lite

The Honor 50 Lite is an intriguing device that has piqued our interest with its affordable price point in Malaysia. With a 999 ringgit tag, this smartphone packs an impressive 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage, making it a fantastic value for those seeking a reliable device without breaking the bank. The sleek silver design and quad-camera setup at the back promise decent performance, but can it deliver on its promises? Let's dive into our review to find out.

Xiaomi Redmi A2

The Xiaomi Redmi A2 is an affordable smartphone that offers impressive battery life, with a massive 5,000mAh capacity that can last up to 5 days on a single charge. The device also features a large display, making it ideal for watching videos and browsing the internet. However, its performance is limited, struggling with demanding tasks such as gaming. The phone's processor struggles to handle more complex tasks, resulting in laggy gameplay and choppy frame rates. Games like Asphalt 9 Legends and Shadowgun Legends were unplayable on this device, while simpler games like Candy Crush and Subway Surfers ran smoothly. The Redmi A2 also features a single speaker, which isn't the best for listening to music or watching videos. The phone's design is sleek and well-put-together, but its Micro USB port is outdated and doesn't support faster charging standards, making it take almost 3 hours to fully charge. Despite these limitations, the Redmi A2 remains a great option for those looking for an affordable smartphone with long battery life and a large display. It's perfect for basic tasks like making calls, sending messages, and browsing the internet. However, if you're a serious gamer or need more features, there are better options available. Overall, the Xiaomi Redmi A2 is an okay budget-friendly smartphone that gets the job done, but it's not without its flaws. It's available for purchase on Amazon and AliExpress, making it a great option for those who want a reliable phone without breaking the bank.
