    Why is there an iPhone 5s / SE on the picture?

    • +5

      Aldi should be able to answer that.

  • 2nd hand rose

    • … better than a 2nd hand partner.

  • Comes in original box? Warranty from Apple? Remanufacured from where?

    • It seems to be a proper Apple refurb.

  • Silly question perhaps, but can I somehow connect this to my tv with wires, to use as a wireless headphone? My tv has no Bluetooth technology

    I had recently purchased their wireless headphones thinking they were Bluetooth ones. While I can watch tv with them, I can't listen to music when outdoors.

    Just wondering if I could do both with the Bluetooth one.

    • You are probably best of buying a Bluetooth audio dongle and connect it to the TV> Costs about $5 on eBay and you can go wireless.

      • You are probably best of buying a Bluetooth audio dongle and connect it to the TV

        thanks dosada
        so if I have understood right, if I connect the blue tooth dongle to the tv
        the dongle is wired to the tv
        and the dongle will talk to the headphone
        and the headphone will talk to me?

        Smart technology obviously needs smart people to use them :)

        Obviously I can also use to the headphone to pair wirelessly with the mobile phone when outdoors

  • Don't buy a shitty 6 in 2018. You will regret it.

    • +12

      6 is shitty, 6S is a good phone.

        A snapdragon 660 or second hand 835 totally outperform 6s

        • +1

          If y buying an iphone y rarely primarily interested in benchmarks. 6S is plenty powerful enough for a damn phone.

        • @0jay: did you type your message on an iphone?

        • Can confirm a Snap 625 performs better also.

        • +1

          @voss water drinker: droll dude, very droll. I do have an iphone. the q is what do y use y phone for? even 6S has way better camera than most android whatevers, 2gig ram which is plenty for ios and realistically plenty fast processor (which in benchmarks actually outperform snapdragon equivalents even when the shouldn't on paper).

        • +1

          @trucktech: on what metric? does it dial quicker? have a better camera? better software? better security? jfc

        • -1

          @0jay: On the topic of CPU's rather than cameras or dialling speeds, I have found Snapdragon 625 to perform better than the Apple A9. It uses less power, and provides similar or better performance, especially when paired with more RAM (than Apple's 2GB) as is the case in most hardware configurations. That is from the point of view of someone who uses many apps on phone simultaneously (multiple browsers, email, navi etc), and also runs occupation specific proprietary software.

          @trucktech: "from the point of view of someone who uses many apps on phone simultaneously (multiple browsers, email, navi etc), and also runs occupation specific proprietary software."

          Totally atypical user then.

        • @0jay: What's a typical smart-phone user?

        • +1

          @trucktech: A typical iPhone user? For a start someone who's not relying on proprietary code. And given the literally well over billion iphones sold (still breaking sales records year on year even with a price increase), a user who finds them relatively unproblematic.

          I don't really care but misrepresenting the issue to make a point is a bit tedious.

        • @0jay: We seem to have moved on from CPU discussion… I don't think anything is debating iPhone sales - we've seen Apple can remove features that are liked and continue to sell product, but to argue past sales as literally a selling point to others and a reason something should be purchased is something from the realm of herd mentality.

          You do realise proprietary software by definition is simply software in which the source is not open? Almost everything a user downloads from the app store is closed source/proprietary (and iOS itself) falls into that category. Given that I'm noting these are my experiences, however most other users will download at least one or two apps from the app store, please explain how the issue has been misrepresented?

        • +1

          @trucktech: "to argue past sales as literally a selling point" not what I'm doing, I'm saying the negative experience you've had is unrepresentative of the majority and that the majority is an astonishingly large number to be simply drinking the kool-aid prior to purchase.

          "proprietary software by definition is simply software in which the source is not open" you know what I'm talking about and I assume when you say you rely on "occupation specific proprietary software" we're talking about the same thing.

          "please explain how the issue has been misrepresented?" Seriously?

          "We seem to have moved on from CPU discussion" gen for gen, dude. your move.

          Judging by benchmarks like the GL GFX benchmarks it depends on the task. Something like gaming the iPhone 6s seems to be considerably better than the snapdragon 660 powered phones. Looking at the GFX Manhattan 3.1 test as an example, the 6s averaged ~50 FPS onscreen frame rate vs 14 FPS on an Android phone like the Xiaomi Mi A2. Also typically speaking another area even the older iPhones win is in storage speeds. This will help win tasks like loading up a big game, the decision to go with nvme vs emmc is a performance advantage for older iPhones.

          My concern would be what happens in the next couple years with newer iterations of iOS Being push to this phone. I know Apple are promising performance improvements on 12. However the nature of things are newer versions of OS tend to slow down older devices. This is getting a bit long in the tooth imo.

        • @Ronnnie: "My concern would be what happens in the next couple years " that's the substantial concern, though historically they're very well supported (even the 5S should get ios12).

        • -1

          @0jay: Nothing more to discuss - dude. OzBargain is not a benchmarking site. A 2015 Zenfone was probably not as good as a iPhone 6s at the time. Then again maybe it was? Maybe a 1990 Holden Commodore was better than a 1990 Ford Falcon? It's not relevant now. What's relevant here is what's available now, what sort of value it is?

          Let the millions who have had a good experience with their 6s come forward and tell others how much of a good deal it is and why their old phone is worth $469 at Aldi.

        • @trucktech: "OzBargain is not a benchmarking site" you made the comparison against the qualcomm.

          I agree you were pissing in the wind in so far as a reasonable observation in ozb context, agree completely.

          Mebbe y should towel yourself off and start again?

          "What's relevant here is what's available now, what sort of value it is?" refer you back to @0jay:

        • @0jay: I think if you scroll up, you'll find I was responding to a comparison and stating experiences.

          Like I said, let the millions (other people) who have had a good experience with their 6s come forward and tell others how much of a good deal it is and why their old phone is worth $469 at Aldi.

        • @trucktech: "I was responding to a comparison and stating experiences"

          Fair cop, that's true.

        • +1

          @0jay: Well, the camera of 6s can be outperform by plenty of same price range Android devices, Huawei P10 can be an example. Even though, A9 has a high theoretically performance, iOS system do slow them down

        • +1

          @0jay: Isn't that a common sense that Apple slow old devices down in newer firmware? Has you tried a 6 plus running ios11 or a 4 running ios7?

        • @lplsz: Without getting into that discussion about deliberate slowdowns (don’t really wanna dignify it with tbh) I’d ask you how often and for how long does the average droid phone get updates at all?

      • Had a lot of issues with my 6S.

        Was the original 6S with battery and charge issues, repaired or maybe replaced under warranty. Was never really the same and I had charge controller IC's fail on the mainboard, multiple batteries fail, it's been picky with the charge cables, ran out of storage (couldn't expand), shutdowns at 50% battery etc. and the phone was never abused or treated rough. Would regularly get hot or overheat, and in regional areas the phone used so much battery power trying to maintain reception it basically had to be tethered to the charger. Battery is 1715mAh, small by 2018 standard, never lasted long and died quickly for a device with mid range performance at best.

        Failed on me while wife was pregnant and was the last straw. Since then, used an Asus Zenfone 3 Zoom, worth less than a second hand iPhone 6s but somehow exponentially better with 2+ day battery life 5000mAh battery, good camera, and good performance from the Snap 625. Will never go back to the extortionate iPhone range - sorry fanboys.

        As for my old iPhone, I hear it's at a discount supermarket awaiting it's new lucky buyer. Come in spinner.

        • @trucktech: y reckon people only buy em cos they think apple's cool?

        • While it's true there are some people that have other iOS devices and may want this for compatibility; what other reasons would have people spend this amount of money to take a chance with 3 year old hand-me-down hardware?

        • +2

          @trucktech: Well for a start you're misrepresenting a refurb as "hand-me-down hardware". You're entitled to your opinion but there are many people who've had good expereinces with Apple refurbs and credit their refurb process as realistically being a very stringent exercise with testing and many new components (including battery).

          If you'd like to compare the 625 with a gen for gen apple equivalent the snap'll come out second best.

          Having said that I'm not saying this is a great buy but it does have 64gb storage and is a very servicable phone, equivalent of new, better quality than the average droid alternative etc etc etc

        • @0jay: A refurbished unit has been owned by somewhere else. It's history is unknown. Apple may have good QC processes in place, but the fact is this phone is not new and it's hardware, while "serviceable" (exactly the right term for something currently working but not new), it's generations old and the a google search will reveal many problems people have had with the 6s.

          You'd be drawing a long bow to say people would be better off buying a refurbished "serviceable" version of a 2015 phone than looking what was available in the Android market, Nokia, Asus, Samsung, LG to name a few - AND comparing them properly, performance, screen, storage/expansion, ports, battery life, Android OS version etc. etc. Frankly, for a lot of people the 6s wasn't great at the time let alone now.

          OzBargain isn't about comparing gen for gen products at the time they came out (try tech forums for that), it's not a benchmarking site for the Snap 625 vs the A11 or even the A9, it's about comparing the options and the best value and stating experiences.

        • @trucktech: "this phone is not new and it's hardware, while "serviceable" (exactly the right term for something currently working but not new), it's generations old" by servicable I'm talking about the model in contemporary terms, it's till an eminently usable phone. As for the 'used' issue that's another thing and as I implied before, you either credit their qc or you don't. if you don't, then buy something else.

          "it's not a benchmarking site for the Snap 625 vs the A11 or even the A9" you made the comparison at the outset, all I'm saying is if you want to suggest the snap's the better performer then lets make it a fair fight.

          "it's about comparing the options and the best value and stating experiences" and that's the crux - even a 3 year old model iphone represents better value to many people than pretty well any comparable droid and if you could care a fart for security the iphone's the better bet by far.

        • @0jay: OK kid. Enjoy your battery life and future iOS iterations… and down with the experiences of others we don't like to hear them.

        • +3

          @trucktech: "OK kid. Enjoy your battery life and future iOS iterations" I'm willing to bet I'm old enough to be your father and have been using apple products since about '82, had a first gen iphone right after the price reduction/storage bump, I'm well acquainted with both advantages and disadvantages of apple gear ownership and use.

          You're entitled to airing your view but if you get a bit rexie with your finger on the scales then you have to expect others to pipe up about it.

          Enjoy your day.

        • @0jay: Yes, you too. Have a good day. I'm glad you were able to pipe up and hold me to account on my personal experiences with this product.

        • @trucktech: "I'm glad you were able to pipe up and hold me to account"

          I prefer the other version tbh but either way I suppose acknowledgement people have bad experiences is fair enough, the assumption that anyone's denying people have bad ecperiences is where it gets a bit tedious.

  • That’s an SE not an S.

    I am using 6s from 3 years still fast enough and I have only one alternative iPhone X

    • +2

      Yep. It will also be continued to be supported when iOS12 is released, and reportedly gets a speed bump with the new OS too.

      It’s a great phone for a teenager, or anyone who is looking for a solid iPhone with a headphone port.

    how is this a deal? used 4 year old phone??

    • Not only is the technology 4 years old but this phone was probably manufactured 4 years ago with. 4 years worth of abuse.

      • +4

        If the phone is a true Apple refurb, it is pretty much ‘as new’ with a new battery and casing. Would be a great phone still (and can play Fortnite for teenagers)

    • +7

      It is at most 3 years old.
      iPhone 6S came out on 25 September 2015.

      Good price for a decent phone for your iPhone loving parents/grandparents that you don’t want to teach Android.

      I can't find that info but would be surprised if it wasn't 12 months considering it's Aldi.

      Also they have a 60 day return policy -

      Special Buys are covered by our 60 day refund policy. That means we'll refund or replace any item as long as you return it within 60 days of purchase in its original packaging, along with any accessories it came with and your receipt.

    How is the Bluetooth Headphones?

    Thinking to buy this for fathers day with something from bunnings?

    Any Recommendations?

    Thanks In advance

      "Thinking to buy this for fathers day with something from bunnings?"
      I don't think Aldi will accept that, they prefer cash or card.

  • Might be a dumb question but these headphones don’t have a 3.5 mm port do they? Some have a port to turn them into wired headphones, wondering if that’s the case here

    • The iPhone 6s has a 3.5mm jack

      Edit:I'm so sorry, I didn't read that properly

    • There is no mention of an extra 3.5mm port on the headphone in the description. I guess the answer would be "NO".

  • “Includes: […] AUS charging block” - to me, this reads as a non-Apple wall charger, perhaps because it’s overseas stock or just a refurb phone from Apple (slim white box) with added Aldi accessories?

  • If you want an Aussie alternative to ALDI mobile, try Woolworths prepaid mobile. Now up to 30GB roll over, $40 for 10GB, Telstra wholesale. Basically the same or slightly better service.

    I think this is a review of the bluetooth headphones…

    https://youtu.be/ehxu-_4rcZg

    Not the greatest review but iif it’s the same ones that are on sale it’ll give you an idea of what they’re like.

    • He’s doing his best, eh?
      Though that’s still not very good “not sure if they’re wireless”…?

  • Awesome to see!
