Found this on the joybuy site while checking out the deal for the toothbrush listed earlier.
Great price and about a $100us cheaper than gear best. You might be able to get an extra coupon but none worked for me.

Bought one, you could use the coupon as well.
Feel free to share the coupon..! :)
Register the account then you could use the US$18 off coupon
Ahh, I see what you mean now!
For anyone unaware, when you register and are logged in and are on the page for a product, they have coupons that you can click (up to $18).
Cheers stan-c - may not have even noticed if you'd not mentioned it.
says out of coupons. normal? thanks
@MrSammyMcG: I've just logged in to have a look and I think they may be gone.
From memory, I'm pretty sure the coupons were just a clickable button (I think they had 2 or 3 buttons with different value coupons, with $18 being the highest).They were in or around the area where the Price and Promotion fields are but look to be gone now unfortunately. :(
@Deviner: Thats understandable thanks for going to the effort to check that for me. People like you make Ozbargain a good place.
For an extra $64, you can get double the storage - probably worth it.
Never used the site before, so provided they check out ok, looks like a good deal!
EDIT: Looks like 256gb one is not in stock at the moment.
Would have got the 256 had it been available. 128 is still decent don't usually fill it up more than 70gb.
Bought a 64GB version earlier for US$425 shipped. Despite the price is in USD, the total is cheaper than Xiaomi official price CNY3299. And this price includes shipping to AU
This or the upcoming oneplus 5T?
Both….
Hahaha. Not sure if can afford both. :) I am currently an iPhone user and never used android. I am told oxygen os very simple compared to miui os. Hence the interest in oneplus 5T.
5T, the button position is similar like iphone.
Anyone share some experience dealing with Joybuy.com?
First time using them. From previous deal they seem to be owned by a bigger company who are pretty big in China. Couldn't be any worse than gear best etc.
This is the Chinese version, so I guess you need to flash the global rom.
I'll flash xiaomi.EU ROM. Would have gone straight to resurrection remix ROM but it's still having a few issues.
That's another. Although the EU ROM has less bloatware in it. Mainly stock apps and is based on the official mui ROM with weekly updates.
Mine one delivered today. Brand new sealed. Happy with it.
Nice mate….mine shouldn't be far then.
Yo.. guys. How’s the phone? Have you tried checking Band 28, NFC stuff?
Haven't got mine yet…it isn't Sydney for some reason even though I'm in Vic. Hopefully in a couple of days.
Thanks. Hope you receive it soon. Just saw this post and now looking at the 128/6.
Best price around. You just don't get a choice of faster shipping. Someone above mentioned they received it. Brand new in sealed box.
Got mine a couple of days ago.
Really nice phone. Smaller and lighter than original mix.
The more I use it the more I like it.
I've applied to unlock the bootloader and got approval straight away although gotta wait a few days before it unlocks.Also a bit of f##k around but had to install a VPN and connect to China server in order to link the phone in developer option.
I installed global rom, also had to find a work around as the bootloader is still locked you can't flash it through the phone. Ended up using xiaomitool to flash it.
Installed Nova launcher and phone is working great. Super smooth and fast. Everything works nicely.
A quick test on speed test and speeds are very good, download of about 120mbs compared to the original mix with speeds in the low 60mbs, obviously no band 28 on the original mix.
For the price of the phone you really can't go wrong. Miui 9 has some cool features one been dual apps, ideal for me with banking app and Instagram.
How long did the shipping take? and any issues with the seller, also did they provide a tracking number? I'm about to bite the bullet on this myself but i just want to be sure.
mine took about 3 weeks…someone else mentioned 10 days…they're in Sydney I'm in country Vic.
They don't communicate much.
when I logged in to my account after a few days it said shipped. Tracking info showed up after a few days, it updated every couple of days.As I mentioned above, phone is brand new in seal.
@bbourizk: well I'm in a small town so maybe it will take a bit longer. Still thanks for the response.
@MrSammyMcG:
It's a great phone…You'll love it.
If you need some help getting onto global rom or eu rom send us a PM.@bbourizk: Nah should be good im gonna dump Ressurection Remix on it asap since i hate MIUI. Thanks though i appreciate it.
@MrSammyMcG:
I had RR on the original mix. Not quite good enough for the mix 2 yet. Make sure your coming from China developer rom for it to work.@bbourizk: Okay i heard that they fixed the issues with the proximity sensor last week and the only remaining known issue was BT audio, other than that it looks fairly stable and the best alternative rom to MIUI.
Just registered and wanted to buy a Mix2. However the coupon for new users are not applicable for it. Really useless coupon.
Still cheapest price around.
That's US dollars sorry.
