  Can someone tell me why this isn't a good deal because it sounds like a good deal - shame it is with Optus though I live in a blackspot.

    Seems good to me too! I'm upgrading and the new $80 plan is a lot better in terms of inclusions than my old one. Plus the phone with no repayments is handy! It was $5 per month only last week when I checked.

    I've been happy with Optus, but it's always subjective with phone companies. Being in a black spot certainly doesn't help though :(

    It's definitely a good deal for the price, but in my experience very few people actually need unlimited calls and such a high data allowance. Sure, it's nice to have but I think a lot of people pay extra for the piece of mind of no bill shock rather than actual need for it.

    $1150 RRP (!) is $48 a month in phone repayments and $32 a month in service charges - so good value for an unlimted/6GB option, especially if you were going to have a Netflix subscription anyway.

    At the lower end, $65 on Virgin with $450 calls and texts and 1.5GB of data is a good value option with an effective $17/month service charge.

      Now that's a solid answer, thanks!

      The 6GB was probably the biggest thing for me, as on my current plan I am going over and it's costing me $10 per GB over the 1.5GB included. Calls I'm not so fussed about, but the international inclusion will be nice so I can call some family members in the UK.

    Its just a good deal,

    Basing it off Amaysims Unlimited/5GB/$45 a month you pay $35 extra a month ($840 over 2 years) for the phone which goes for about that money and an extra 1GB a month. With the obvious 24 month contract instead of month to month.

    So yeah, if you were planning Optus network and this phone and around that data, its a good deal.

  and I believe if you have optus broadband at home you can get $10 off the phone per month

  Got this on the Vodafone red $70 plan for $65 a month. Not paying any extra.

    Well maybe you should share that deal with people then?

  Hmm….

  The BYO plan is 50 for 8gb unlimited calls text etc with no lock in contract. so essentially you are paying 30 x 24 = $720 for the phone. Give a bit less value too as this is a 6gb plan.

  That in mind all up 720 is good for the phone itself.
