      Cheapest unlocked Brick and Smartphone would go for $30 and $100 respectively though.

      Much cheaper if Optus/Telstra-locked though.

        Check ebay for unlock codes. The UK based unlockers typically respond with codes in a few hours.

    coles/woolies or even officeworks - https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/c/technology…

    If you need something quick (especially with wife pregnant) don't mess around eh?

      Probably not the best idea to order from Gearbest or Shopmonk, hey? Maybe a kids 1st birthday present…

      • completely agree. We'd usually recommend a xiaomi but given weeks/months for delivery - not worth the waiting in this case

  • Just get one at the supermarket. So long as it's locked to the network you're using anyway, who cares? Just take the SIM from the broken one into the new one.
