Buying A Secondhand / Cheap Decent Phone

Hi there,

My current phone isnt in too good shape, and i doubt it will last the year to Nov 2012 until my contract finishes. Hence i am looking for a decent phone in the meanwhile to use until then.

I was planning to get the SG II, but if i can delay it, I can get something else when my contract finishes.

  • Maybe look at the HTC Incredible for $269.10 (locked to Optus): http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/56117 Otherwise provide more info and we can maybe help you further.

    By the way the SG11 is available as a gray import from Kogan for $519 plus delivery: http://www.kogan.com.au/shop/samsung-galaxy-s2/

    Cheers.

  • mate get the galaxy s2, I assure you, you wont be disappointed. When you get the new phone for new contract just sell that then. Which carrier are you with? I might even be able to get you a good deal :)

  • Recommend the acer liquid metal at $130, which is a bargain if you are slightly tech savvy, otherwise the HTC Incredible is a good deal.

  • talking about tech savvy, my falling apart phone is a 3GS which ive replaced the screen, battery, back case, etc. unfortunately the stuff off ebay is absolute crap =/

    hmmmm , that sounds good. are the acer liquid metals still around?

    with optus atm, the call rates im getting are horrible for the old $29 cap

  • spotting the liquid metal on ebay for 150-200, might be decent unlocked for 150 considering its locked to telstra (128$)

    • You can unlock it by simply updating the firmware, buy it new!

      • from where? jb dont have stock anymore

        • Thats a big problem then!

  • just get the nexus s from voda for $269. its unlocked. :D
