NOTE: Price was edited to include GST.

As user adr8 pointed out - According to chinagadgetreviews(chinagadgetsreviews.com) & chinagadgets(china-gadgets.com) coupons POCOX3DDM5 & POCOX3DDM10 will provide a further US $5 & US $10 discount for the 64GB & 128GB respectively.

Without GST prices are ~$277/347 for 64/128 respectively.

This is a flash sale starting at 5:00pm AEST. I believe they are shipping 5000 units at this price. Newly released phone.

Specs:
Snapdragon 732G
120HZ LCD Screen
6GB RAM
64/128GB Storage
Quad Camera w/ 64MP main
Global NFC

Pretty insane specs for the price, seems like a bargain.

Note: ships from China.

If you order early you can get a free T-shirt too.

Mod 330pm: Title prices updated to include GST. Approximated AUD price, based on today's MasterCard rates, paying in USD.

      No one wants the current 5G. In a few years when you upgrade this phone, 5G might actually be what we want, not just a 4G piggyback.

    I just ordered the redmi pro note 9 on tobydeals a couple of days ago. Through ozbargain

    Should I cancel and get this?

    • dingdong3000 on 08/09/2020 - 18:07
      +1

      For me it's worth the extra 50 bucks for Poco x3. Better speakers, bigger battery, slightly better processor(not much an upgrade tho), 120ghz refresh rate. The Note Pro 9 has the dedicated microsd slot if that's important but still reckon Poco is better buy.
      I cancelled my order from TD (raised dispute) via Paypal for quick cancellation and they've reversed payment.

      • MagicTsukai on 08/09/2020 - 18:48

        can you help guide me on how to do a quick cancellation,
        I dont know how on paypal

        • dingdong3000 on 08/09/2020 - 19:37
          +3

          In Paypal click on Tobydeals in completed transaction > report a problem > 'I didn't receive an item I purchased' and write you want to cancel order and obtain full refund, but before you do email [email protected] just so they are aware and do the Paypal dispute straight after.

          As long as your order is still processing should be no issue.

          • MagicTsukai on 08/09/2020 - 20:45

            @dingdong3000: Thank you for the help.

            I emailed tobydeals that i wanted refund due to delays and change of mind.
            And then I followed your paypal dispute steps.

            Now i am waiting for tobydeals to officially do a cancellation. I hope they don't do anything funny like say they packaged the item already.

            In the meantime, I just bought this Poco X3 deal, the price I got it was $366 with the coupon. I also used cashrewards.

            I am excited for this deal.

          • MagicTsukai on 09/09/2020 - 22:24

            @dingdong3000: Have you received any response from tobydeals yet?
            I haven't although the status on their site says 'Paypal reversed'.

            I logged into paypal and saw this paypal in the resolution centre:

            "You'll need to allow some time for the order to arrive. If you don't receive your item by Thursday, 10 September 2020, you can escalate this to PayPal."

            Should we escalate this ourselves tomorrow or wait more?

            • dingdong3000 on 10/09/2020 - 06:11

              @MagicTsukai: They replied to my cancellation email same day but indication of PayPal reversed means refund is being processed. Wait till their eod tomorrow for confirmation. I emailed them early AM and got response just after 7pm

              • MagicTsukai on 10/09/2020 - 22:09

                @dingdong3000: I got an email from tobydeals today, and they confirmed the cancellation. Didn't have to do anything else on the paypal website.
                Thanks alot for the help.

                I got a shipping message already from aliexpress today as well. How awesome.

                • ozblogger on 11/09/2020 - 09:46

                  @MagicTsukai: Let us know, when they actually refund
                  I am in the same boat, and they havent even replied to my email yet .. 3 days and counting
                  Status is Paypal reversed too

                  • dingdong3000 on 11/09/2020 - 10:02

                    @ozblogger: I got my refund 2 days after TD confirmed my cancellation. You'll get an email from Paypal saying you're receiving a refund from TD.

                    • ozblogger on 11/09/2020 - 18:35

                      @dingdong3000: Just received the emails
                      One each from Paypal and toby, saying the refund is being processed. So alls well that ends well here

      Everything in the price bracket with similar specs, from that list it seems only the Huawei P40 lite might be faster (and well, it's a Huawei..) and the higher price bracket to include Pixel 4a for comparison.

      This is at least 15% faster than the pixel 4a and should have much better battery. At half the price. The camera quality also seems 'good enough' that spending that extra $300 can't be justified. It's likely you can install (Google) Camera PX anyway.
      Edit: Looking at DXOMark, it's currently the 10th best camera (based on sensor) on the market, and seems to have better overall and daylight (sacrificing some night time) performance vs the Pixels.

    Which variants are most people getting? 64GB/128GB.

    With all things the same, it's cheaper to just buy a MircoSD card as opposed to going straight for the 128GB variant.

    Is there anything additional apart from the 64GB difference in space and the ~$60AUD Price Tag between the two ?

    • CyberMurning on 09/09/2020 - 10:37

      you forget one slot is shares sim and sd, so if you put sd card there then you cannot have 2 sims, which is more valuable than $60

    • Lukian on 09/09/2020 - 15:44

      I only use about 32GB of my 64GB phone storage, so 64GB is fine for me (and there's always the SD card if that becomes an issue).

      The internal storage will likely be faster than a microsd, but you probably wouldn't notice if all you're storing externally is media or such.

    • Lukian on 09/09/2020 - 15:45

      Let us know when you get it, so we can all be jealous of not having paid 10% extra for slightly(?) faster delivery.

      • JoelT on 09/09/2020 - 16:25

        Fingers crossed!

        I ordered a camera tripod from China/AliExpress on July 13. It departed China on the 18th, arrived in Australia on the 22nd. 49 days later, still nothing! And I've got a few other items in limbo also.
        It seems that the dispatch and airline sides of things are a little slower than normal, but once it gets to Oz, it's a total disaster.

        At least with DHL, they'll probably use their own planes(?) and delivery network, and less likely to be held up with the other AusPost packages. It's a gamble.

    • aussie1990 on 10/09/2020 - 18:45

        LOL…. It's been just released. I think stocks should be available in a couple of days in overseas. The standard price is around $220US for 6/128GB.

        Maybe wait for Tobydealsau in a couple of days.

        • [Deactivated] on 10/09/2020 - 01:17

          I'd be supprised to see the 6/128Gb go at $220 when their flash price is $249

          That would break their internet sales strategy

          • YasimKudomi on 10/09/2020 - 09:45

      There are ~41 heavier phones on the market.
      There are ~22 lighter or equiv weight phones with the same or larger screen size, and with a stainless steel or aluminium frame (like the Poco X3).

      So this one is towards the lower weight range of what it is. What exactly are you seeking?

      There are zero phones with all this in mind and a larger battery.
      The two models that come close start at ~$1200 AUD.
      The weight of the Samsung M51 isn't recorded yet.

        It is too much. Poco F1 is "lighter" and with better CPU. I can see myself using it. iPhone 8 plus is a example of heavy phone that are deal breaker

        • Lukian on 09/09/2020 - 23:39
          +3

          Poco F1 is "lighter"

          15% lighter for 22% less battery and 8% smaller screen (and no HDR10 or 120Hz).

          and with better CPU.

          301,581 vs 332,586 antutu (v8) - yeah the F1 is about 10% faster in this test.

          What else is the F1 lacking?

          • $70 in your wallet (25% more expensive)
          • Band 28
          • NFC
          • Newer camera sensor
          • Near EOL in MIUI/Android updates as it's two years old
      • YasimKudomi on 09/09/2020 - 23:12

        The POCO X3 is so similar to the note 9 pro max in term of hardware. The main different are quicker screen 120zh, better graphic 735 and SONY camera, and I think it should be around $30US cheaper than note 9 pro.

        Yes, it's a bit heavier but it is the best value for money in the market right now for a brand name mobile, considering it is about 75% cheaper than iphone 11 with 64GB.

        The problems are the delivery time and most of the overseas sellers don't take paypal, so it's risk factor.

    Your order should arrive within 27-27 Days, Factors such as delayed logistics and customs clearings may have an impact on the delivery time.

        IIRC DHL have there own there own courier drivers. The last phone that I ordered from China using DHL took 5 days to be delivered to Sydney, but that was back in 2018.

        And this is probably the best ~$300 phone you can get.

  • shiggaz on 10/09/2020 - 07:55

    Are there any recommended accessories from AliExpress for this?

    Looking for case, potentially an adapter for the charger if it's EU plug and USB-C cables.

    I was looking at this USB-C cable but I don't know if the charger has a USB-A port.
