Add the cost of a new battery to these, usually 2-3 years of use already in them so batteries won't be great. Could be other issues too so...

Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro. Picked this up for $358 recently. Great phone and surely a strong contender in this bracket.
Went with iphone x from greengadgets, "pristine" condition, 256GB, 12 month warranty $458 after the discount code. That's pretty damn good...
Good stuff, greengadgets was one seller I was looking at.
Is that a general 12% code or only applicable to certain sellers?
Any particular sellers, or just go by feedback ratings I guess?
Applies to pretty much any refurb seller Amazon or otherwise though? And Apple themselves never seem to have any phones on their Australian...
Yes aware of that but apparently Amazon monitors sellers operating under "Amazon Renewed".
Here's an example: https://www.amazon.com.au/Apple-iPhone-SIM-Free-Smartphone-Renewed/dp/B07T18JLVX/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8#
They are third party sellers but quality apparently controlled and monitored by Amazon.
I use Xiaomi myself, as I believe flagships (not just Apple) are a con and there's no good reason to be spending north of $1k on a phone...

Brianqpr commented on [eBay Plus] TP-Link Deco M5 Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi System (3-Pack) $175.10 Delivered @ Wireless 1 eBay
I have this system but paid a good bit more for it last year. Great price and works very well.
Its neither laggy or a POS. Check the many reviews.
Terrific phone, I got one recently for $358. Not sure why the negs? I prefer it to the iphone 11s my wife and daughter have. Never had an...
Brianqpr commented on Which iPhone for $1k
XR at $700 strikes the balance between value and being an iphone. My son needs a new phone soon to replace his old 6s and that's what I'm...

Here for the comments about the processor being too slow, or the camera not being as good as an iphone.

magnitude on TCL 10L 64GB (Marina Blue), 6GB RAM $224 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ In-Store) @ JB Hi-FiMy wallet has never run out of charge, and I don't carry any significant amount of cash anyway. NFC is a nice to have, nothing more.
