NEW GOOGLE PIXEL 3 WITH DOUBLE DATA
Pre-order the new Google Pixel 3. Get double data from $58/mth on selected 24mth leases.

Min. cost $1,392. Damage and cancellation fees may apply. Double data ends 13/01/19, unless withdrawn.

this is the minimum cost deal, but i would recommend using the owning the phone deal:

Pixel 3 64gb Memory = $68 - 4Gb data, $80 - 20gb data, $90, 50gb data, $105 - 200gb data
PixilXL 3 64gb MemoryXL = $78 - 4gb data, $80 - 20gb data, $100, 50gb data, $115 - 200gb data

Pixel 3 128gb Memory = $78 - 4Gb data, $90 - 20gb data, $100, 50gb data, $115 - 200gb data
PixilXL 3 128gb MemoryXL = $88 - 4gb data, $100 - 20gb data, $110, 50gb data, $125 - 200gb data

all plan includes the normal Optus entertainment packages, but those plan with 50gb of data and above also included unlimited "international"(limit countries) call .

    NEW GOOGLE PIXEL 3 WITH DOUBLE DATA

    Double data ends 13/01/19

    So does it come with double data?

    • GG57 on 10/10/2018 - 16:08

      Is the phone the bargain, or is the double data the bargain?

        phone + double data is the bargain.

      Double Data expires soon… unless there is an extension like every other previous Double Data offer.

      I am just happy you can get Pixel on Optus and not exclusive to Telstra anymore.

      Do you use or give away the phone after it's out of contract? Mine are almost always (fu**ed) after a year or two, battery life is completely shot by then

      • Femelo on 10/10/2018 - 16:39

        But in that case Google offer 2 years warranty that's way I'm just buying Google or Huawei phones.

  • Jaso n on 10/10/2018 - 16:01

    why would you sign a lease plan to save $240, better value if you sell the phone after using it.

    • ScruffTheJanitor on 10/10/2018 - 16:11

      Meh, in 2 years will it be worth much more than that?

      • HKS on 10/10/2018 - 16:14
        +2

        maybe 400-600 in 2 years time. it's still worth having.

        • ScruffTheJanitor on 10/10/2018 - 16:22
          -1

          As a 2nd hand phone?

          The pixel 1 is $499 brand new from Kogan at the moment. $599 from JB.
          $150-$250 on eBay 2nd hand.

          I dont see it being worth more than $300, and then if youre selling on eBay you lose a bunch on fees.

            +2

            @ScruffTheJanitor: $300 is still $60 in your pocket at the end of the 2 years, also you'd use gumtree or facebook since they are free.

    • Sevenofnine on 10/10/2018 - 18:32
      +2

      because lots of people don't like selling stuff, same reason why people trade-in their car. They know they can get better prices privately and everyone would tell them not to be stupid and sell it privately to get more money, everyone. They would still traded-in the car.

  • Mostly Melbourne on 10/10/2018 - 16:02

    what happens in lease plans if you break the phone while in the contract?
    EDIT: nvm, "Damage and cancellation fees may apply." so it seems that you will have to pay for damages..

    • asa79 on 10/10/2018 - 20:02

      You pay the extra cost to have it repair in a sellable condition that optus can resell it on

  • fungi79 on 10/10/2018 - 16:12

    Seeing that the Pixel 1st gen go for between $200 - $240 on FB Marketplace and Ebay, why is the lease plan such bad value?

    • YLD1 on 10/10/2018 - 16:16
      +1

      Because thats how companies make money

      Also people are lazy and don't want to list on marketplaces.

      Same reason why trade-ins you get such low value

      • ScruffTheJanitor on 10/10/2018 - 16:23

        Companies make money from just about everything they sell. Thats an odd reason to think its a bad deal.

        • mskeggs on 11/10/2018 - 06:32

          You don’t usuall have the option to capture the value the company is getting so easily though.

    • ChickenAdobo on 10/10/2018 - 17:42
      +1

      You don't own the phone at the end of 24 months and any damage to the phone is at your own expense and liability. It a win for optus and lose for the contractee.

    • asa79 on 10/10/2018 - 20:03

      Just because its for sale for 200-240 doesnt mean anyone is buying them

  • letmesingh on 10/10/2018 - 16:24

    Don't forget you get $10 off if you add to the existing plan.

    • Sevenofnine on 10/10/2018 - 16:27

      only if you're new customer… meaning a new phone number and not existing Optus number, I tried and failed to get this discount.

      • pennypincher98 on 10/10/2018 - 16:29

        "New customer" only requires a port out and in again yes?

        • letmesingh on 10/10/2018 - 16:30

          Correct. thats the way

      • letmesingh on 10/10/2018 - 16:30

        yea I think it only works on add-on plan. I got $10 off an iPad a few weeks ago without any trouble

    • nubix on 10/10/2018 - 16:46

      this sounds great. do you have a link for reference? i'm not able to find any mention of this on the page

  • triplenet on 10/10/2018 - 16:37

    I actually think 65$ lease plan is pretty good deal and u can upgrade to new phone after a year for 99$ . that's if u want to get new phone every year.

    • pennypincher98 on 10/10/2018 - 17:00

      And recontract on a new plan. If you are on a limited price plan (eg $59 iPhone 8 plan) there's no guarantee they'll match it with same inclusions.

    I am waiting for Telstra F&F deal for $59

    • pennypincher98 on 10/10/2018 - 16:57
      +1

      From a business perspective: the Telstra F&F Pixel 2XL for $59/month (possible discount to $49) was the best and worst thing they ever did.

      Got a lot more customers but $49 x 24 months = $1176. I'm not sure how much the stores buy the phones for but there's barely profit in the two years.

      But then again, their customer base expanded greatly - you can't put a monetary value on that.

      • triplenet on 10/10/2018 - 17:34

        yes . i think it wont happen again sadly. I m on my pixel 2 telstra plan atm with 20G for 49$ .

        • scottySK on 10/10/2018 - 20:37

          My wife is on that same plan but for $59/month. What do I have to do in chat to get it to $49/month? I tried once but they said it was already discounted $10 and can't discount further..

          • pennypincher98 on 10/10/2018 - 20:42

            @scottySK:

            I tried once

            That there is your problem. Persistence pays off.

            Out of interest did you wife sign up in the Christmas special or the March one?

            • scottySK on 10/10/2018 - 21:00

              @pennypincher98: March via JB Hi Fi

                @scottySK: Ah ok, there was an actual method for the Christmas ones but you've just got to be lucky with the March ones.

                I signed up March via Telstra store (with the only stock around) and haven't been able to get the $59/month discount but I know some of my mate's and plenty on here have.

  • m0tyrider on 10/10/2018 - 17:31

    So is it $68 total? Or is that just the "handset" cost?

    • Sevenofnine on 10/10/2018 - 18:43

      that's the total cost per month for 24 months on a $45 phone plan and $23 phone payment cost.

      my mate 10 pro has wifi calling which was enabled today with an optus update..

      • whtbox on 10/10/2018 - 20:17

        that's great news, As I hate it that optus only enable their wifi calling on Iphones and Samsung only. While other phones have to use Optus Wifi Talk which is rubbish.

    • whtbox on 10/10/2018 - 20:21

      Found my own answer to this. YES Optus enabled Wifi Calling on Google Pixel3 and Pixel 3XL.

      As it's listed on the compatible device page now.

    Shaping up to be a very hard sell over the pixel 2 XL. You're basically getting a less defective display, a more versatile front camera, wireless charging, the newer soc, and some software upgrades.

    What other flagships are offering: in display fingerprint readers, vastly improved rear cameras, system wide npus (Google's currently only works on images?), much more ram, more durable.

    Price creep unfortunately seems to be an industry wide trend! (outside of xiaomi and some others)

    • fowlli14 on 10/10/2018 - 18:25

      What would be some other phone brands that offer value for money? I keep hearing the Oneplus 6 model but that is not available here in Australia. Nokia, LG, Oppo or Huawei?

    • poxy001 on 10/10/2018 - 22:16

      You can manually install the new camera app on the Pixel 2 and get all the new features anyway.

      • incipient on 11/10/2018 - 00:29

        Not being facetious, as I have a pixel 2 myself so would love it if I could! Have you seen somewhere how to get the app on the older phones? Everything I've read says the features are exclusive to the p3 =(

    • evadw on 11/10/2018 - 05:31

      Which phones have in-display fingerprint? Because I've stopped using the fingerprint since switching from OnePlus to Samsung and it's annoying as hell.

  • gilbarc on 10/10/2018 - 18:08

    Still no headphone jack. No deal.

    • pennypincher98 on 11/10/2018 - 05:37

      Seriously? There's an adaptor, USB C headphones or you can use Bluetooth headphones.

    A shame Google/Optus aren't offering any special pre-order inclusions (such as the Pixel Stand).

    • pennypincher98 on 11/10/2018 - 05:41

      I think Google are offering the Pixel Stand (only in America?) as a pre-order bonus if you buy from their website.

      • Trishool on 11/10/2018 - 08:14

        Yep the shame is that we pay so much yet miss out on features and bonus inclusion in Australia.
