Sadly my older iPhone has died and I'm rather locked into their ecosystem. The iPhone 7 imo represents bad value but the 32gb SE isn't bad. Finding it a bit cheaper than the retail would help the value proposition.

Well, retail is $679. So anything less than that is optimal.
$600
and ill place one in the classifieds for you
Try Kogan, but be aware that 32gb is an extra $100 bump up from $519. This is also an international model, so Apple may not be able to warrant this.
Yes, Kogan pricing is bit off -16 Gb for $519, 32 GB for $619 and 64 GB for $639. So 64 GB is better option.
does anyone know the current price for an 32gb or 128gb ip7 from costco casula or lidcombe?
Telstra have added the iPhone SE 32gb to their prepaid phones for $449. The downside is that it would be locked to Telstra.
https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/prepaid-mobiles/iph…Wow! Thankyou so much. I'm on Telstra, thats perfect!
I've been wanting one myself so I've been hunting for the best value. So far this is the best I can find.
What is the 'locked' status of these phones? They say they're Telstra locked, but I thought no Australian iphone stock came network locked, that apple didn't allow it.
@xuuj: I believe that Telstra lock all their prepaid phones and it is only the postpaid iPhones that are unlocked.
Fair enough, thanks a lot!
I'm locked into a post-paid plan with Telstra anyway so that doesn't affect me at all, but it does explain the pricing a bit.
@xuuj: someone has started a post on oz bargain for this deal and there is a lot of debate about it being locked or unlocked. I'm keeping an eye on that post to see if someone buys it and can verify either way it's locked status. I need an unlocked phone to take a travel sim when overseas otherwise I would have already purchased this deal.
Id be surprised if its not locked to be honest. As its quite a substantial discount for no benefit if they're not locked. Whats in it for Telstra taking a $200 hit for someone to use on optus?
Thanks Jewe1s. Great deal! I think almost worthy of an Ozbargain post on it's own.
how much you looking at spending is a start
