Malaysia tends to see many budget device launches,
and now Wiko is joining the pack with the new Tommy3 Malaysia launch. The 18:9
device is another attempt by the company to crack into the Malaysian market,
though we wish it were at least slightly better than it actually is.
It comes with a 5.45-inch FWVGA+ (960×480) IPS
display along with a typical 1.3GHz MediaTek quad-core processor and a PowerVR
GE8100 GPU. It also comes with 1GB of RAM and 16GB internal storage, which are
honestly surprisingly small for a new device in 2018.
The camera package here is also nothing to really
scream about. With an 8MP rear camera and 5MP front camera, the device seems to
be pretty average all around. Even the battery is only 2500mAh, which is simply
average. The saving grace seems to be the price, and even that’s somewhat iffy.
Price-wise, the Wiko Tommy3 goes for RM 329, which
translates to about US$ 84. This is a pretty great price, leaving it with not much
to compete against. Despite that, the Redmi 5A is only small amount more, and
that sports much better specs. To know more about the phone, just head on to
Wiko Malaysia’s official website.
