Yes when it’s made by Apple
Almost as easy to understand as anti-Apple rhetoric.
@Eeples: Anti-Apple rhetoric, you say. Your corporate cheerleading is clouding your judgement. I would say the same about any device offering this woefully inadequate storage for $659.
@[Deactivated]: Exactly. Consumers literally attach to a brand like it's a sports team. The products those brands sell becomes the consumers identity and so any criticism is seen as an affront.
Time for you to draw sabres and defend your honour.
@OssieA: I'm surprised he didn't call me an anti-Apple bigot or Applephobic - always straight to victim mode
@[Deactivated]: Biggest difference is; this phone will be good for about her 5+ years. Assuming you’re referring to any type of android phone of similar price, be lucky to last 1 more year
@Danstar: I didn't mention Android or Apple. My point was the inadequate storage. You're projecting ("assuming" as you call it) to make an irrelevant argument for the purpose of reaffirming your ecosystem choice.
@[Deactivated]: While it might be inadequate storage for you, for others it is perfectly adequate. I don’t need more, I had a 256GB model for 4 years thinking I’d use it and only ever used 50GB of space total, without any thought given to keeping size down so plenty of unused apps etc.
We’ve all got different requirements 🙂
@WeiKaiLe: Just in case anyone isn’t aware - iCloud storage automatically puts your photos into iCloud as you get close to your phones capacity. Same with SMS and apps as well. So 64gb on the phone is more than adequate given most of it lives on the web (backed up).
By paying for even the basic iCloud subscription you also get access to hide my mail (disposable email addresses), hide my IP, iCloud sharing, and other services.
You pay an Apple tax for the phone, sure, but like a Toyota it retains its value pretty good and the interface doesn’t change significantly between versions.
They have fantastic support - easy to get a hold of in-store, phone or web chat especially for older folk who just need a hand understanding how to change a setting or two.
Finally - the repairability aspect is something being worked on. Like every phone they release- there’s always questions about how easy or hard it is to repair, but generally the issues are remediated over time. They’re releasing right to repair documentation, and the serialisation of parts is controlled by software.
Proprietary charging cables and plugs are probably the biggest bug-bear ie lightning vs USB-C charging - but considered lightning has been around for years it’s not too bad, and you know that a lightning based accessory will be guaranteed to work.
@[Deactivated]: I loathe apple as a company and own zero of their products.
But unfortunately if a user wants iOS on a phone for this price point, and this is the cheapest, then its a deal.
Ive been using the same phone since 2018 and Ive used 30GB of storage. I message, call, use maps, and track my workouts daily. I even have 2 games installed, and over 100 photos I havent offloaded to my home network, or printed yet.
The charge to consumers is BS, but I dont think it'll limit the sort of people who are actively shopping for 3 year old phones.
Never forget;
Value is directly decided by the individual customer.
Apple can retain its price really well compare to other brand. I just sold my iphone 11 128gb for $600, I've used it for 2,5 years with battery health already depleted to 75%. So the fact that you could get a brand new one for $100 more, that's still a pretty good deal.
Well, there is no ecosystem that exist which is as good as apple. Long Software support. Good built quality.
I'm not talking about Apple, their ecosystem, software support, or its appalling Chinese sweatshops. I'm talking about the inadequate storage this phone offers. Focus, man.
And where are other phones made?
Ever heard of cloud services and streaming?
you're saying a 2019 phone with 64GB and no micro SD slot for $659 is not a deal
people are saying $659 is worth it for their ecosystem, software support, build quality or its appalling Chinese sweatshops.
if this was 2019 android phone at $659 with no more security updates , then it's not even worth $300
Says the guys trying to "subtly" drop in hints of his true agenda and pretend he's focusing on a specific thing that doesn't apply to most people.
@smartazz104: My "agenda" is the storage. I know it's hard to focus when you're emotionally bound to a corporation but try to stay on point so your argument retains some relevance.
@[Deactivated]: The only emotional one here is you. You have repeated that over and over. Grow up champ
Within the same comment you're telling people that your only focus is storage while also raising Chinese sweatshops. Don't be disingenuous.
iphone 6s still officially supports the latest iOS upgrades and security updates
android ? you're on your own, with 3rd party roms
I always roll my own roms these days.
I dont trust 3rd parties. Keep my firmware 1st party wherever possible.
There's usually a lot of room left by the OEM to improve by making a 1st party rom; though you usually need to use their OEM baseband parts.
Yeah but this is about storage man, focus.
You're getting it now, took a while but you made it. Nice job
Yes. To me it’s a deal.
I upvote. Done deal.Thanks for sharing, stellar contribution
Same to you.
No big deal.
Tell me more about the apple ecosystem when you have a moment - I’d love your stellar insight.
I upvoted just to annoy all the right people.
Considering that no android phone has matched the single core CPU performance of this 2019 phone I'd say it's still pretty relevant and reasonably priced.
I’d go for local stock any day over grey imports
I'm no Apple fanboy but you'd be hard pressed to find a better phone at this price point.
yes i would buy this for my parents if they needed a new phone today over any android phone despite the lack of microsd card and only 64gb of storage
If you dont like it whatever man
Can a 2019 phone with 64GB and no micro SD slot for $659 really be considered a deal?
It depends. For a younger person like someone in their mid to late teens or a young adult ~22, I think this would be fine. The iPhone 11 will continue receiving updates until 2026, so the phone has at least 3-4 years of manufacturer support for OS and security updates. The price to me seems a little excessive considering a 3 year old phone with not huge storage, but I suppose that's the Apple tax. Phone storage requirements aren't what they used to be. Dropbox/OneDrive/iCloud/Google One make it a breeze to keep your media from consuming your local storage and their prices have dropped. to be quite cheap.
oos
Blue and Purple in stock
so is white but theyre >1k?
edit: unless you get 64gb (as opposed to the pricing for 126gb black)
Pretty sure JB hi fi has them for about 987 posted
Only colour black is 997. Both black and purple are oos.
Got one for this price at JB hi-fi a couple of weeks ago. Upgrade for my wife from her 11 as she's an iPhone devotee.
L buy for sure.
Okay, Xiaomi Mi 2 representative.
I got an SE 2020 in mint condition for $300 3 months after the release date and still not satisfied.
11 is a great phone but that LCD screen is a huge deal breaker.
For $700 I would rather buy a second hand 12 with a far better screen.Dude I was just making a joke about your name
128GB for White and Black are at $739 if anyone wants a bigger storage capacity
HD screen…
That's anti-Apple hate speech
I have lots of Apple devices, including M1 devices (multiple). iPhone 11 still HD screen. That's HD, not even full HD.
Very similar number of subpixels to a 1080p 19.5:9 OLED screen with pentile. Benefits of RGB stripe.
I bought an iPhone 11 after having android my entire life and I'm really happy with it. After 2 years the battery is sitting at 89% life, I don't really find it dying on me often. I'll be upgrading to the new iphone pro when it's released later this year
sorry I forgot I was on ozbargain. *For as long as smart phones have been easily accessible to the general public within australia.
Yep, nokia 3650 was a wild phone.
Probably the first mass available smart phone in AU. Though blackberry was about the same time… but not available for general public purchase yet iirc.
I find it shocking symbian lost to early android.
@MasterScythe: Symbian lost to the iPhone.
Nokia was warned by a journalist and by a four year old.
https://www.engadget.com/2013-10-10-how-the-iphone-took-noki…
@mantichoral: Oh I lived through it; but for literally years, the iPhone couldnt copy paste, which mutilated productivity for my use cases.
Also, symbian could run as many apps as you wished at once; early iphones had that whole 'home button halts' be that pause, or exit.
Also the 'app store' took longer than people usually recall to actually catch up to the Ovi store; catch was, the app store had a lot more 'free' so people explored.
Clearly im not defending it NOW, it was just very shocking at the time.
@MasterScythe: I think it's the screen size that switched many people over to that form factor. I loved the blackberry keyboards. Never made any typing mistakes even when not looking. Cannot do that with a touch screen phone, but the videos and games are great on a much larger screen.
@cadwalader: Remember the blackberry storm? It was RIM’s attempt at a full touchscreen device.
One of my cousins got one through his work and we ran it side by side with my iPhone 3G. The Storm’s UI lag made it unusable and made even the 3G look like lightning. In the end RIM had to mostly go back and stick with the old physical keyboard, until the end.People loved the physical keyboard on a blackberry, but the versatility of the apps and full screen defeated it.
@entropysbane: Thats why im on an Android Blackberry.
But the iphone 3G is exactly my point; its just such an amazing feat in marketing that they beat out Symbian who had been 'doing it all' for literally a couple of years already.
I still love turning on my Ngage for a quick game; and opening the PDF's of old IGN mags on it is INSTANT (sure its 100 and something pixels…. But shhh).
Its just one of those scenarios where you're forced to congratulate a company for doing something amazing; even though you preferred its competitor.
The no copy-paste thing was just a nightmare to live with…. Geez.
likewise, on android now and been on android basically my entire life but next phone will be 13 pro max when its cheaper : D
It's an HD screen mate, battery will probably be fine for another 10 yrs
I was in the same boat, went from android to an iphone 12. Sold it 6 months later and back on android now, just wasn't for me although I realise everyone's different.
android user myself (nexus and pixel), been considering switching, what made you switch back and what phone were you previously using?
Went from midrange motorola to plain iphone 12. The annoyances for me (and I realise different people put different weight on different features) were lack of a FP scanner, more expensive online storage (more expensive everything really), a UI that I didn't enjoy, and poorer integration with things that are not Apple. On the plus side I liked the form factor and facial ID was good (but was a PITA with masks). I switched to a P6P when they came out and while it's not perfect it's a better fit for me and I have enjoyed using it.
Still one of the most powerful phones available.
64GB storage can be a limitation for some people, but not most, and certainly not if you pay for a large iCloud service anyway. Buy the next size up (also discounted) if you suffer storage anxiety.
The only downside compared with newer iPhones is the LCD screen as opposed to OLED. But tbh it is a very good LCD and really not a deal breaker.
2nd hand go for not much less and their battery would be quite used by now.
A good deal.
JBhifi doesn't price match online stores like amazon anymore, is that right?
They match Amazon AU price, but really depends on store
They really just do whatever they want. Despite “always cheapest prices” being painted on the wall.
Didn't think that was on their walls anymore. Hasn't been for years since grey imports and online sales became a big thing.
Actually, In my experience last weekend JB in Elizabeth St Melbourne matched Amazon's price on a Logitech keyboard. Give it a go!
Phone up and ask for a "JB Deal!" Blah blah….
You can call many times before you run out of call centre staff.
Ive had them match everything (eventually).
This is All time low for brand new iPhone 11?
A quick browse through previous iPhone 11 deals suggest it is. (Excluding the refurbished ones from Coles).
Nah, my doctor is cute!
That's an interesting non sequitur.
An Apple a day, keeps the doctor Away.
I'll have an iPhone 13 for this price, that would be fair
I'll have an iPhone 13 for this price, that would be fair
If you think that's a fair price you'll be happy to sell me one at that price then…
Maybe in 2024 or 2025 it will be that price. Before then is very wishful thinking.
Is it about time Apple products joined religion and politics as things nit to discuss?
The threads become unbearable
I don't use iPhones for personal mobile…so I only click on these deals to read the comments..loll popcorn or beer also add to the enjoyment… Try it 😄
The repairman told me iPhone 11 will cost less to repair because replacing lcd screen will be cheaper than oled so I bought two for my kids in high school.
That is correct advice (run a computer / phone shop)
LCD screens are way cheaper to replace than OLED
They had LCD up till iPhone 12
Good choice
If you prefer genuine Apple parts & service, OLED gets replaced with OLED. However you can source LCD displays for all of the OLED models - but so far I've found these displays are physically thicker.
My daughter got an 11 over a 12 because she wanted a yellow one.
iPhone SE should come down if 11 is this price
You’re paying for the newer processor with the SE. The 11 has the A13 while the SE 3rd Gen has the A15)
