        maybe incase people read 4G and think it has the same 4G coverage as other phones on the Australian market. Huawei zte gte and a few others are Chinese android phones that support band 28, they make some universal models in their product range so they have some models that ship globally rather than different models for different markets. same with Samsung and Apple have had a single international model for several years that supports band 28.

          @Mechz: I'm on TPG. They're on Voda now, and it works just as good as when they were on Optus. Not sure about the 4G though. I'm only using a 3G handset. But if the 4G is as reliable as the 3G, I'd get this phone. I'm not though. I'm waiting for something else.

  • Marky66 on 06/03/2016 - 09:35

    Recently placed an order with geekbuying for the Note 3 Pro.
    Chose the 2GB RAM / 16GB Storage for about $270 AUD after coupon.
    With the addition of a micro SD card I felt the price premium for 3GB model was too much.
    I know a micro SD card is inferior to on-board storage. All my other phones have had 1GB or less RAM.
    Now I just have to wait.

    • ScoMosas on 06/03/2016 - 09:53

        Pro / Prime has the snapdragon 650 + 16MP rear camera - either 2 GB / 16 GB or 3 GB / 32GB
        Non-pro has MTK processor + 13MP rear camera - again either 2 GB / 16 GB or 3 GB / 32 GB

        I agree - quite confusing when you consider all the possibilities incl colour choices that seem to have different prices.

        I was considering a ASUS Zenfone (Taiwan) for band 28 4G but opted for Xiaomi (larger battery, finger print sensor)

        • madreece on 06/03/2016 - 21:14

          From my recollection it was about 2 weeks. I mean I was really impressed. Check the Lenovo K3 thread on Whirlpool ,people rave about the service from Vickmall.

          Impossible! Unless it's EMS or TOLL, otherwise it'll take months to arrive here AFAIK.

          I bought a lot of stuff from China/HK in the past few years and not once they're able to deliver within 2 weeks via regular CN/HK/SG post.

      wow that looks like a pretty sweet option. includes wireless charging, NFC and marshmallow 6.0

      • OZB Al on 06/03/2016 - 22:22

        I'm interested in this phone, but elephone have made a complete pigs arse of its release. They went for a half baked crowd sourcing idea where you could pay $5 to get $50 off, then didn't release the phone before the coupon expired, then extended the offer but made it really difficult to actually exchange their coupon code for one that would work with a retailer.

        This combined with the lack of any way to root it and not much chance of custom roms have removed it from my list.

        Pity, it looks good…..

  • unity1 on 06/03/2016 - 11:06

    If you choose the "Multi-language Rom&Google play store installed" option will it still be necessary to remove malware/spyware?

    • fryandlaurie on 06/03/2016 - 11:22

      From my experience, no. They install a fully stock miui.

      • unity1 on 06/03/2016 - 12:32

        Thanks, that's good to know. I'm looking for one of these phones that doesn't require any software modifications.

      • mckennal on 06/03/2016 - 13:00
        +2

        From my experience vickmall didn't install any malware, but it can't be simply a "fully stock miui" if it comes with Google Play as this phone doesn't have an official global ROM available from xiaomi yet.

    • anglais on 06/03/2016 - 16:34

      I bought from Banggood and did a full refresh of mine. There was a bit of a bloatware on it. Bear in mind with this phone there is no official global ROM, so you're always going to be at risk. Somebody outside Xiaomi has been in the source code so you can never be sure. Mine works great, but if you're interested in total security, this is not the right phone.

  • anglais on 06/03/2016 - 16:30

    Definitely recommend the phone. I bought an 'Aixuan' case on AliExpress for mine - highly recommended. The sandy texture gives a great tactile feel, and gives much more grip than just the metal back. It's quite a slippery phone without a case.

  • Phoebus on 06/03/2016 - 17:31

    Awesome phone if you don't mind the lack of many 4G bands.

  • LaTerrible on 06/03/2016 - 19:00

    While this is a great deal on a great phone, the 'Indian' version of this phone just launched, which has global ROM and potentially, the correct bands for Aussie 4g enabled (though initial reports suggest that may not be the case). If a retailer that ships to Australia can be found (or a mail forwarder from Amazon India perhaps), it also has a lower MSRP and will be a better deal.

    Just received mine from this deal. If you ordered one from here/this deal, please ensure on the box that you didn't get the "MTK Helio X10" version as I just did. This is the slower/inferior version (also with a PowerVR GPU), and not the Snapdragon 650 / Adreno 510 as promised in the ad!

    I've sent Vickmall an email - I will update this post as I progress.

    Just a heads up, I bought a phone from this deal and chose the "global" ROM. Reviews of his store had been positive so I trusted them, but it did come with malware installed, as well as a few other suspicious things (having issues booting to recovery mode, for example). There is a global rom now but because it comes with the bootloader locked I've spent all morning wading through forums trying to flash with no success — really not what I wanted to be doing with my time. Please be careful.

    • AssociatedSelinawang @ Vickmall on 18/03/2016 - 18:20
