Hi all
I'm looking at buying a new Android phone, and I'm after best bang for buck under $300. Prefer a larger screen and 636 as a minimum. Right now I'm looking at:
Nokia X6 - https://www.banggood.com/NOKIA-X6-Dual-Rear-Camera-Face-Unlo…
Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro - https://www.banggood.com/Xiaomi-Redmi-6-Pro-Dual-AI-Camera-5…
Is the Xiaomi a clear favourite? What else is out there that people have found that might compete with these?
Thanks!
Check out the specs of the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite. https://www.mi.com/global/mi-8-lite/
Can be had for close to your budget $.
Snapdragon 660, ● FDD-LTE: Band 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 7 / 8 / 20 / 28 ● TDD-LTE: Band 38 / 40
Best price so far is on GeekBuying using coupon from Couponese site.
Keen for Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite - Can anyone confirm NFC is working on global ROM?
Mi A2 lite also an option. Basically the same phone as the redmi 6 pro but with android one instead of MIUI. I'm a big fan of xiaomi and don't mind MIUI at all but many aren't so keen on it.
If you can stretch your budget by $50 id get the Huawei 3i from Officeworks. Price beat gearbest $350.
Otherwise, mi A2 64gb is a good price $280 gearbest
The $280 model on Gearbest is only 32GB, the 64GB is $335.51
Where can you get the 3i for $350 from? It is showing as $499 from Officeworks for me.
I've never had an officeworks pricebeat an import, do they?

Just call up your store and see what they see.
They do price beat imports. Really depends on who you talk to.
Ok, had a bit more of a read and looks like they do price match grey imports, wow, that's very handy.
Im probably going to go for this
https://www.amazon.com.au/Huawei-LDN-TL10-5-99-inches-Factor… at $248 after cashback
I know that it only has 3gb RAM and a few other missing features but it does have NFC which is what i was really after - and i couldnt find a cheaper half decent phone with NFC
How about a Sharp Z3? $174 It got good reviews on launch.

Replacing PP King 7 which was the best buy I ever made - still only sells for $130: https://www.banggood.com/PPTV-KING-7S-6-Inch-2K-QHD-3D-Cente…
