I bought one of these to use as a security camera at home. Didn't bother activating the SIM card.

Yes, it's an old phone and it's got 1Gb RAM. But I found it useful to do something else with it.

    As a security camera? I know its only $29 but still that's quite bad.

      Yeah, not the best but the area is always lit. The back camera does it's job and I can remote in using Teamviewer when I need

      • pennypincher98 on 20/01/2018 - 19:37

        Something like this not a better buy? Also, it is at Woollies for $20 if you can find stock.

        Guess it's more for peace of mind than an actual security issue.

    I bought one simply to run the Xiaomi apps for all the Ozbargain deals.
    …works fine.

    Purchased 2 days ago. $2 unlock for Aldi Sim. Tinny spkr otherwise quite happy for the price paid.

  • Dacs on 20/01/2018 - 22:27

    Would this work okay as a 4G wifi hotspot (modem router)?

    • Taegukgi on 20/01/2018 - 22:30

      I'm no expert but since it's a 4G capable phone then I can't see why you can't do it.

  • damop on 21/01/2018 - 09:23

    Can anyone recommend a dirt cheap phone like this to use with Amaysim? My dad needs a new phone (very basic user, doesnt know how to text) and is with amaysim.

    • Taegukgi on 21/01/2018 - 09:54

      Do what @thunderduck did. Buy this phone and get it unlocked for $2

  • batrarobin on 21/01/2018 - 10:26

    Should have bought a XiaoFang for $17 and enjoyed much more functionality.

  • Taegukgi on 25/01/2018 - 18:03

    Have since found a better use for it - dashcam! Installed Astroboy on it and works great!

    • King Tightarse on 21/02/2018 - 08:05

      Spent a while searching until I realized you meant Autoboy. It's Autoboy, right?

        Yes, Autoboy.

        Damn autospell.
