        JBHIFI and Mobile Citi one are unlocked hence the price difference. BigW and Target ones are locked to Optus.

    If you are after a phone that will get updates
    I would stay away from OPPO
    Good phones but after 6 months updates stop
    in my personal experience

    • Yep, my partner has to remember to turn Bluetooth off after getting out of the car because Blueborne was never fixed.

      Also, Android Auto issues, at least with F1.

    • Any recommendations for another similarly spec phone at around this price? Thanks.

    • That's the case with most phone makers though, right? I think Samsung and HTC are the better ones, but still not as good as a Nexus or Pixel. Android One phones are the way to go of you want affordable phones with at least 2 major upgrades.

    • Yes totally agree. It would be okay if they did security or 'fix up issues' updates but they don't.

      Applies to most phones other than google phones.

    This phone will be locked to Optus whereas the JB and Mobile City ones are unlocked…

    They're good phones but as said you wont get updates after the first 6 months or so, they seem to just cycle through new models and abandon support for the old ones as soon as they are superseded.

    • Buy from optus/target locked for 289. Buy unlock code for 20 off ebay. Bam problem solved.

  • +1

    RRP for optus locked phones. No deal.

  • Any idea if people on Optus reseller networks will be able to use it?

    • +1

      From previous experience, yes.

  • Sue them for planned obsolescence

  • +1

    It's now on Optus prepay online store and Big W does not allow online purchase of this.

  • Saw this for $179 in either Blacktown or Winston Hills last night.
