          Ordered xiaomi other goods from geekbuying prior to Christmas.
          …paid extra for tracking (didn't work).
          Arrived today (2nd Feb). (all goods fine and genuine)

          previous purchases of other geek gear have also been very slow, …so it is not just the free post option.

    Anyone used them before? Can vouch for their genuinity?

    • iridiumstem on 02/02/2015 - 19:16

      I've used them once, bought 10400mah+Piston bundle. It was genuine (I opened it up/it was genuine according to the Xiaomi website), but I was not fortunate enough to get the LG/Samsung cells (Xiaomi does use other companies' cells, according to Xiaomi website).

      It took around 20ish days, but considering that I bought it slightly before the Christmas season, I think it was reasonable. (I think I received on 6~8th of Jan, I ordered it on 17th of December.

      I unfortunately don't have the power bank with me, as I've bought it as a present to a tech illiterate (thus had to make sure that it was genuine to be on safe side).

      But as I recall from someone pointing out, even if I got the real one that time, it doesn't guarentee anything.

      Also, I recommend getting the sleeves, edges are not rounded, so it's possible for you to scratch the phone while using the powerbank.

      I've bought from GeekBuying before, though not this item, and will not buy from them again.

      My product arrived physically defective, but they wouldn't replace it. Instead, they repeatedly told me to file a damage claim with the shipping company, even after I sent them multiple pictures of the parcel packaging (it was in perfect condition so it was obvious the damage was not incurred while in transit). Eventually, they offered me a 5% refund to compensate, but continued to refuse to replace the item - despite me quoting their return policy, which clearly states that they will pay for return shipping and replace the product if it arrives defective.

      My conclusion - they will do anything to avoid honouring their return policy, and their tactic is to keep stalling for time in the hope that you will give up. (eg. emails can take up to 3 days or more to get a reply).

      I understand that problems happen from time to time - but what's important is how sellers resolve issues. The way they handled my case has left me very bitter (as you can probably tell), so I will discourage people from buying from them, especially for higher-value items.

        Personally I prefer to buy from Ebay due to better protection for buyer and relatively quicker response from seller. IT helps by checking seller's review and how long the seller has been on ebay. I believe there are online sites with very good customer service too. Ozbargain is a good place to search answer for the reputation of a seller.

        even more depressing is that you would use paypal's exchange rate ;)

        Well, it's paypal or credit card, and with the latter, you'll only get 73.9 (and the risk of your details going "astray")

          Well, it's paypal or credit card, and with the latter, you'll only get 73.9 (and the risk of your details going "astray")

          you're using the wrong type of credit card then

          28deg, Bankwest Platinum etc etc all give pretty much 'spot' rate (which at the moment is about .78c even, so about 3c better than paypal)

          You do know you can use your credit card with Paypal yet have your credit card do the conversion don't you….?

          My credit card (Bankwest Zero Platinum MasterCard) follows the published rate on the MasterCard website and doesn't charge any conversation fees. Craps all over PayPal's rates.

        • Kenb0 on 02/02/2015 - 20:07

          I think the accepted method is to use paypal to pay by credit card, but use one of the credit card options out there which don't charge foreign currency conversion fees(eg. 28degrees) so you get a much better exchange rate(should be much closer to 0.779 right now)

        • Dan83 on 02/02/2015 - 20:37

          @Kenb0:

          @SBOB: Thanks - I'll try find it next time.

        • So Was Red on 03/02/2015 - 11:26

          You can use your bank's exchange rate through paypal using credit card option rather than linked bank account (have to manually choose each transaction). Also this way you have visa/mastercard protection as well : )

          Edit: I kept scrolling and saw all the similar comments.
          TL;DR +1 for credit card option through paypal

          @buttstuff:
          I don't think you can. Paypal prefer you to use your savings account.

        • Nousernamehere on 13/02/2015 - 17:36

          @buttstuff: I'm not too sure to be honest, I haven't had to change it for so long now but I know I have both my CC and savings linked to it and it never prompts me to have to select my CC as that's what it defaults to.

          I had a look around in my settings though and couldn't find where to change it though, maybe I'm just lucky that it's an old setting they had that I stumbled upon ages ago?

    • Shahrasb on 02/02/2015 - 20:14

      That's a terrible exchange rate. We're importing items from UK as a local branch and I can tell you GBP => AUD conversion rates are killing the margin and there's only so much room to compensate with a price increase.

      I got one the other day from Mushtato too, because I am going overseas in 2 weeks I needed someone with Australian stock.

      I bought one from Alibaba in the past and it's a fake. My wife has a brand new SGS 5 and I didn't want to risk plugging her new toy into the fake one, so she can have the genuine.

      I have a Nexus 5 and happily use the fake - it works fine. We're traveling on different dates but meeting each other in the same place so it will be handy to have 1 each anyway. Yay I get the fake.

  • jcsantos on 02/02/2015 - 19:30

    how many times does it re-charge a phone? say example sg 4 active?

    • ash2000 on 02/02/2015 - 19:35
      +4

      approx 3 times.

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 02/02/2015 - 19:36
      +1

      SG4 Active has a 2600mah battery, so this could charge it up to 4 times.

      • ash2000 on 02/02/2015 - 19:41
        +3

        You won't get 4. Xiaomi state the charging efficiency is 90% at 2.0amps, but from my experience of owning two of these, I think its more likely around 80% (but that is still excellent by any standard). I get about 2.5 charges for my 3000mah LG g2.

        • elusive on 02/02/2015 - 19:44
          +2

          The efficiency on the battery pack side may well be 90% (though IIRC they only advertised the controller/regulator, not the batteries themselves), but once you factor in losses in the cable, and the phone itself, 80% doesn't sound far off.

        • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 02/02/2015 - 19:49

          You're right. That's why I said up to. I didn't know the exact amount.

    • AXiS on 02/02/2015 - 19:40
      -2

      Divide the capacity by your own phone's battery capacity.

      So for a GS4 Active, the capacity is 2600mAh, so this 10400mAh could charge it fully exactly 4 times (give or take a bit).

      • richox on 02/02/2015 - 20:07

        This doesn't discharge itself to zero though, does it. So it will reduce itself to 2600maH, then stop sending any more current essentially equalizing itself.

        • DJ on 03/02/2015 - 01:58
          +1

          Umm yes it does discharge itself to zero. I think you might be confusing this with something else, like buckets of water or something.

    • ozhunter on 02/02/2015 - 20:31

      Xiaomi website states it can recharge an iphone 5s(1560mah) 4.5x, which is a total of 7020mah. This review of the larger Mi powerbank says it has almost 70% efficiency which is in line with Xiaomi estimates.

    • hahaboy on 02/02/2015 - 22:58

      "Australian tax"

    • iridiumstem on 02/02/2015 - 23:26

      Shipping from China, the fact that Australians can afford this much, alternatives in Australian market are more expensive than this anyways, the fact that Xiaomi set their price low as part of their marketing and you usually have to pay premiums to get their product, etc etc.

      Well in this case, it would be American market and Americans but I think those are part of the reasons.

    Don't buy from China and certainly not Geekbuying. They did the same to me, sent me a clearly use tablet with a busted up and opened box. When I realised the tablet was faulty and wouldn't charge I emailed GKB. After 2 weeks and multiple excuses I finally was allowed to return it. They then pointed out tiny imperfections in the tablet and even on the box and charged me $25 restocking and wouldn't cover return shipping.

    I paid for it via paypal but they sent it out 3 weeks after I paid and it took 2 weeks to arrive. I couldn't open a paypal dispute as it was too late.

    Do a quick google search for GKB scams and you'll find out all about em. Crooks.

    With the Chinese New Year about to start, Geekbuying and the shipping companies are going to be closed. I'm sorry if your orders haven't been shipped. I'll try my best to make it a priority when they return.
