    Great deal. Let's assume you can Gumtree the starter pack for $20 then you get a 5'0 HD phone for $129 - $50 - $20 - $25 = $34.

    • +2

      It states you have to activitate the SIM card with the handset and make a phone call to get the $50 gift card.

      • so they will send $50 gift via post or will give you credit $50? Thanks

      • maybe after you made a quick call you can sell the rest of the sim card?

    1GB RAM…no.

      1gb ram = casual
      2gb = mainstream
      3gb = elite
      4gb = Ozbargain Professionals

  • Only if it's an unlocked phone.

      Can be unlocked via dc-unlocker

      • No, they can't unlock this phone .. :-( .. !!

        • Have you tried all of these variants ?
          Huawei Y6 Elite LYO-L01
          Huawei Y6 Elite LYO-L02
          Huawei Y6 Elite LYO-L21

          The LYO-L02 is supposed to be vodaphone's variant so should be the one to use.

          Edit: You are using the dc-unlocker software ?

        • @redcreek200: Using their web site … they gave up after two days.

        • @cornucopia:
          I still don't understand who you're dealing with.
          Did you use this specific software. Download to your pc and connect your phone via usb.
          https://www.dc-unlocker.com/
          That's what I was recommending to use to unlock.

        • +1

          @redcreek200: My bad, the online site was http://www.unlock-code-store.com/. I did look at dc-unlocker but the downloaded executable got into trouble on my desktop so I gave it a miss. I did get Voda to unlock gratis eventually but I'm not saying how .. 😂 .. !!

        • @cornucopia:
          Glad you got it going. Gratis even better !! :p

      • Have you tried via dc -unlocker successfully? Thanks!

  • This is full price. You can get the same deal at any other store that sells this phone.

      Added Target in the list :) Only places where I could find it at this price.

      • +2

        Got two from Target at $109 ea C&C. Really quite happy with our 3G Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus mobiles but an upgrade to a 4G, 5" Huawei for about $60 ea .. irresistible .. :-) .. MERRY CHRISTMAS OP and Thanks for the Pressy!!

        • Merry Christmas to you too mate :) Hope you like your new phones.

  • +1

    Just a caution. The Bagman can't unlock these at the moment, so it's not as easy as Huawei phones used to be.

  • +2

    This is a solid phone for the price. Has a HD screen, way better camera than other cheapies, and is pretty smooth and snappy to use despite the 1 gb ram. Also came with a screen protector in the box.

    I sent a request to voda for an unlock, it took a few days but they sent the code for free. Working fine now on Telstra.

    If you're interested in getting a case, I bought one from eBay for the Y5 II which fit perfectly, though best to check the pics first to see if things line up right.

    • hi,

      how do you send a request for unlocking free?

      thanks

  • Unavailable online @target..?

    • It seems to fluctuate between in stock and unavailable, at least I was able to snag one after refreshing it 15-30 mins after showing unavailable.

      Perhaps they replenish stock manually for online sales..?

  • Got 1.. thanks

    • That's good, was about to comment on your previous post that it is in stock now

      • thanks. anybody managed to unlock the phone without fees?

  • Target shows "unavailable online"

    • Its going in and out of stock like a yoyo.
      I just bought one.

    • in stock now!

  • Bought one
    But shows $50unlock fee from Vodafone website

  • same here..
    is there anyone managed unlock without fee?

  • Bought one… IMEI shows $50 unlocking fee on Vodafone website.
    Although it seems to work fine on TPG (Vodafone) SIM.

  • Anyone found an unlocker (other than Vodafail) for this phone AND had a code provided that works .. ??

    • If nothing else this person might help?

  • None…it's very straightforward…they want you to pay $50. I don't think you can request Vodafone to do it for free..!!! There is no option…!

  • anyone know how much it does to unlock via dc unlocker?

  • Anyone had success getting the giftcard? People are getting errors.

    https://vha.secure.force.com/prepaygiftcard

    • I had an error that I needed to accept the privacy policy.
      I checked the form again. there was only one checkbox option.
      opened the gift card link in an incognito window and sure enough, there were two check boxes there. completed it in incognito and all worked.

    • Getting errors, not working. Anyone success?

      • at the bottom of the form before the submit button, do you see one or two checkboxes?

        • two checkboxes

  • anyone used this website before?? http://www.unlock-code-store.com/

    i put it details it directs me to paypal to for $5.99 payment

    Mod: Above site reported as a scam.

    • May be try, otherwise paypal dispute?

      • -1

        Bad advice. I don't think paypal will refund intangibles.

        And exactly what time yesterday were you guys born?
        Even my idiot brother-in-law can see that is obviously a scam. Grow up.

        • Buyer protection does include intangibles

          Intangibles
          In case an event is cancelled, your hotel’s double-booked, or your download doesn’t download.

        • @Jimmy007:
          OK, cool.
          But it too me less time than this post to put in a random bullshit phone and IMEI and be asked for money.
          Don't be so gullible.

    • Hi, did you use eBay or unlock-code-store.com to unlock the phone?

      • I used eBay

  • +3

    Guyz

    Below eBAY seller unlocked two of my Huawei Y6 Elite mobiles.

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/152296812675?_trksid=p2057872.m27…

    its ~14 AUD for each phone to unlock. He can unlock any mobile.

    Hope it helps

    • just had mine done. $14aud is great if can't convince Vodafone to unlock for nothing (which they wouldn't for me).

      • how long did the code take to arrive?

        • just over 48 hours.
          purchased on ebay, messaged seller the imei number, they said they will get the code, 2 days later code was received by email and I unlocked the phone.
          timing may be a mess at the moment with christmas and they said on the ebay page they do not work weekends.

        • +2

          @CarnivalMonkey:
          OK, thanks. Tried a sob story with Vodafone over the phone but they said they "have strict instructions not to unlock" so ebay it shall be.

        • +1

          @battler: I got the same story even though Vodafone does not work in my office (telstra and voda don't work but optus does…)

        • +2

          @CarnivalMonkey:
          Ebayed at noon, 'sent' email arrived 5.30pm, code arrived 10.30pm.
          Just in time for Christmas :)
          $13.76 well spent.

        • +3

          mine took 30mins to arrive. impressed with that.

  • Got the Target $20 off, the $50 Voda discount (eftpos card) and unlocked the Y6 for nix. So end cost $69 and working on Telstra. Very happy Jan .. :-) .. !!

    • how did you get it unlocked? via vodafone? thx

      • +2

        Voda did it for nix because I was able to convince them that I had no reception at home.. which was in fact true .. :-) .. !!

    • +1

      why $69? I thought it is $59 ($109-$50)

  • +3

    Above code expired but elf20 now works got one for my parents good deal

    • Ordered. Thanks, mate.

      • Orders me :)

  • +1

    Thanks OP ordered one from target; back in stock!

  • contemplating this as a replacement for a family member's aging iphone 4s. It satisfies the B28 700mhz requirement (will be used on boost/telstra in rural area)
    Anyone want to throw their 2c at that?

    Also, can anyone provide feedback on the quality of photos, particularly indoors?

    can probably sell the 4S for >$73 ($59 cost + unlock max $14), so net profit ;)

    • +1

      Camera seems to work well in low light, great resolution. I'm using Telechoice/Telstra in out of town location on GC where Optus and Voda don't reach and reception has not failed yet. Now $109 minus $50 rebate at Target instore without a coupon .. check online for stock … 😄 … !!

  • Thank you OP. Ordered from Target using Coupon Code "Elf20"

  • Thanks

  • Qualcomm webpage stated snapdragon210 does not support 64 bit and it's maximum speed is 1.1Ghz, how could the spec stated 1.3Ghz?

    • checking the phone now, reports 1.3GHz quad core

    • +1

      Its running a quad core 1.3 GHz Mediatek MT6735P. Don't know where you got your specs from but wrong phone there. I think the Y6 runs on the Snapdragon 210. This is the Y6 Elite.

  • +3

    Now $109 instore at many different Target stores without a coupon. Check online for stock. $50 Voda rebate still available too! Been using my Y6 for a week now and its probably the best $59 I ever spent .. 😂 … !!

      • thanks jimmy I pretty much did this but didnt work (win8 maybe?)…

        1. install ADB driver manually
        2. install mtp driver manually

  • no free unlock for mine
