Original 'PADAWAN' 10% off Sitewide at eBay Deal Post Thanks to TA
Same here and I bought that LG G6 from DWI Digitial almost a year ago for $459!! Almost a year ago with a Snapdragon 821 chip.
Hi OP,
Thanks for posting this deal. We've just dropped the LG G6 price down further to $518.22 after 10% off. Can you please update it? Thanks
EDIT: Thanks Hamza
LG G6 have separate slot for SD card or shared with 2ndary Sim slot?
Hi abcd,
The latter, the LG G6's microSD slot is shared with SIM2. Thanks
FYI people are selling the Pixel 2 XL en masse from that Telstra deal a while ago. You can get it everywhere under $1000 tho.
Telstra flooded the market and thats why we will start seeing heaps of sales for P2XL
How much was Telstra selling them for? Can you guys link me to that deal.

The deal is still on until July as some rep confirmed it. $59/24 mo for a Pixel 2Xl 64GB + Google Home Mini + 15GB a month. You can also get $10/mo discount + 5GB extra via online chat later. So it works out to be around $1175 for a phone and 2 years services. Thats why a lot of people is selling Pixel + Home mini for merely $900~$950 everywhere (Gumtree, marketplace)
Basically they were free if you wanted to go on Telstra, or at most $240 over the life of the plan.
What's the process for buying a phone which is technically on contract with someone else? You run the risk of them reporting it as stolen and having it locked.
Is there anyway to report a 'transfer of ownership'?
Hmmm LG G6 price is tempting. But is better than the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 deal (for $460)?
RAM: 6GB vs 4GB
Processor: Snapdragon 845 Octa (4 x 2.8 GHz & 4 x 1.8 GHz ) vs 821 Quad (2 x 2.35 GHz & 2 x 1.6 GHz)
Thoughts?
Mix 2 has more going for it other than non AU stock…. G6 DS 64GB should really be under $500 by now….
How do the cameras compare between them? I assume all G6 models use the same processor/ram/camera?
I agree, but the LG G6 seems to be a favorite among ozbargainers. I'm just wondering if it still is the best bang for buck phone or has other offerings from Xiaomi caught up. I just don't know if 4GB is going to cut it these days.
Particularly if you plan to keep the phone for more than 2 years.
I think being less than $100 difference in price when on sale, being Australian stock just has more guarantee for something from LG, which previously had hardware issues (e.g. bootloop) that would be a PITA to deal with if without local manufacturer warranty. I am aware that the issues are now fixed, but the bad reputation takes time to shake off in the sub-conscience. The phone itself is indeed a good piece of technology and good value for the price (especially when you compare it to the flagships of comparable brands), so the local AU stock provides a peace of mind. The peace of mind is worth it, especially for something that are expensive to repair, and last for 2 years.
Thought Mi Mix2 has no SD CARD slot? the LG G6 does…if you need it.
is also water-proof… still Mix 2 is probably better at that price…
different product.
Different product, but TBH I reckon the DS model at $415 is more reasonable given the age of the phone and the competition.
Ok sorru, yes not quite the same but I agree the $100 increase for this one in OP isn't worth it
Damn… for a moment I thought this is the deal of the month (Google Pixel2 XL for $521.10)
