  • Wow - this price was close to what I got when it was $1100 back then and a 15% off and TRS. But that was only 3mths ago.

  • Can anyone comment on the difference between an unbranded S8 and an Optus branded S8?

      Just the firmware, go to SAMMOBILE & flash branded phone with XSA firmware & no it doesn't void warranty unless you unlock bootloader (trip the knox counter) or use custom firmware :)

        Use Updato. It's free and quicker.

        Yes Sammobile has a free option too but it takes an eternity to download.

          Thanks guys. So is the phone slower to operate at all? Or just slower during bootup? Or not at all?

          And so a Vodafone sim will connect fine to the bands on the phone?

          @Mattk87: Slower to get firmware updates if branded, bootup logo e.g. this scenario it will be the optus splash screen, everything else is the same. Vodafone sim will work fine, but i'd still flash it to generic & thanks rend2688 I'll try Updato :)

          Less bugs and faster updates for the generic software

        • @robzta: I noticed that from S7 we were getting updates same as carries, this is also a issue in US, looks like carriers are trying to discourage people to buy outright and forcing samsung to push updates slow to customers. same with nougat update on S7 whre it was released same week as Telstra did

        • @hopper: Good to know, I have been using Sony since the Note 7 fiasco & wife is still a Samsung fan.. the Generic AU updates are quicker on Sony, although stuck at the moment to flash the XZ Premium to Generic as flashtool does not support sin4 format :( If anyone can help flashing without unlocking bootloader would appreciate it :) P.S. Fonebiz want to charge $50 to put generic firmware on it…

      Unbranded S8 is much cheaper. 😁

  • Could someone please confirm for me. Do you get a GST (TRSable) receipt when purchasing from Mobileciti via ebay? Or only when purchasing direct from them?

    • +2

      Yes they do supply a GST - tax invoice, I'm sure a rep can confirm, now back to work for me..

    • +1

      Have purchased from their ebay before and received an invoice including gst so had no problems claiming TRS. The invoice didn't show ebay discount so you receive refund on the full price.

      • Thanks for the responses team.

    As in… Amazon PRIME?

    • +1

      no, as in Optimus Prime

    Whats the absolute cheapest anyone has snagged a Galaxy S8?
    Waiting for discounts + coupons + cashback + giftcards im hoping for $600..
    Too optimistic?

    Another auspicious sale by MobileCiti!

  • This is a single sim?

  • If I have an issue with this, can I take into a Samsung store or does it have to go back to Mobileciti?

    • +2

      Either is fine

      • Cheers

      • -4

        Incorrect. Mobileciti will palm you off to deal with the manufacturer.

        Just go direct to Samsung Australia.

    • +1

      Aussie stock so no problem with Samsung.

  • Thanks, got one for my wife :)

    • You are a good husband :)

    • Someone is getting lucky tonight.

  • +1

    If only it was dual sim

    • +3

      irrelevant. if you want an iPhone buy an iPhone.

      • -5

        So a mini-review for a brand's smartphone is irrelevant :)

        • +2

          Your ignorance towards Android makes it irrelevant.

        • -3

          @MadMaxBargainRoad:

          Ignorance towards Android's inconstancy over time and numerous backdoor Apps is not included in your conclusion.

    • Someone needs to make an Android version copy pasta of this.

    • "I will never buy any Android phones for over $600 since they don't last long with the great performance and also lack of consistency."

      The fact that you generalised all android phones invalidated your review. You assumed that Android sucks based off your experience with a samsung phone

  • TA does the S8+ get 10% off too?

  • What has been the lowest price for aus stock?

  • Will Officeworks price beat? If so, would be $843 (5% off), coming down to $766 with TRS…just $100 more than the cheapest so far, but with Aussie stock.
