Nokia 7 Plus Under $400 With Oz Waranty

Hey All,

Longtime lurker, first time poster.

I've broken my phone screen on my Redmi 4 and been keeping an eye out for a good priced Nokia 7 Plus.

Most prices I've found are over $400, there are some under but they've been from dodgy looking sites like TobyDeals.

Ideally, I'm looking for one under $400 with Australian warranty.

I'd welcome anything the brains trust here can dig up, as my own ability has been pretty lacklustre over the past month or so.

Alternatively, I'd also take advice if you'd recommend a similar phone, generally look for battery 3800mAh or higher, stock android (newer version is better),a headphone jack and priced under $400. Looking to stay away from sketchy sites and feeling uncomfortable with Xiaomi in regards to privacy/tracking.

Thank you in advance for any input, it is very much appreciated.

      Thank you for finding that. I currently have 4000mAh on my phone, i was content dropping 200mAh, dropping 500mAh on the 8.1 might be too much. I've become accustomed to being okay if I forget to charge. Regardless, worth considering.

        Battery Life
        The Nokia 8.1 has a 3,500 mAh battery that is larger than most of the batteries in our comparison devices. Our test device achieved decent runtimes in our battery life tests and should last for up to 2 days with moderate use before needing to be recharged. The Nokia 8.1 runs out of charge in 4 hours under sustained load, but this is only beaten by the Nokia 8 Sirocco of our comparison devices. In short, the Nokia 8.1 has excellent battery life on Wi-Fi and when watching videos, which outlasts almost all our comparison devices.

        Battery Life
        The poor energy management is reflected in the battery runtimes. Under load, the Nokia 7 Plus dies after two-and-a-half hours. However, in our Wi-Fi test with the brightness set to 150 cd/m², the 3800-mAh battery lasts for about 11 hours. Nevertheless, there is still some room for improvement when it comes to battery life, especially when compared to other competing devices with high-capacity batteries.

        Thanks to the Quick Charge technology, the battery takes only about two hours to fully charge with the included 18-watt charger. The Nokia 7 Plus takes about 30 minutes to charge from 0 to 50%.
