    No NFC.

      Was that ever in doubt? The description does not say it has NFC.

    • 711yucca on 31/07/2017 - 17:26

      what is the big deal with NFC? 99.99% of the time i carry my Drivers Lic, 2 or 3 extra bank card wrap around my Driver Lic with rubber band makes no difference…

      • illumination on 31/07/2017 - 17:29

        Well it does actually.

        NFC lets you use Android Pay. If you've got an American Express Credit Card, there have been quite a few promotions/competitions with Android Pay so you'd need an Android phone with NFC to be able to take advantage of them.

        edit: What was the relevance of your licence btw? How does NFC come into the picture?

        • 711yucca on 31/07/2017 - 17:42

          I have AMEX, current android pay promo is 2 points per $1 spend. Cheapest similar spec with NFC phone is Lenovo P2 at around $300 aud. @ $130 diff, I rather keep $130 in my pocket then trying to get it back with AMEX thru points…

        • illumination on 31/07/2017 - 17:47

          @711yucca: I'm not suggesting you buy a phone for the purpose of chasing AMEX points or qualifying for other promos/competitions. You just asked what the importance of it was and I answered your question. I agree with you - I'd rather pocket the $130 too.

          So how does NFC relate to a drivers licence?

          @illumination: So how does NFC relate to a drivers licence?
          I have to carry my driver’s licence 99.99% when I go out anyways. Extra 2 -3 credit/debit card I don’t have to carry if I’ve NFC phone is not going to make a difference…

          @711yucca:

          Actually, in NSW it's expected that driver's licences will become digital in 2019 (https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/20150_Dig…). RSA/RCG/Recreational fishing digital licences are already available.

          Australia's drive to become one of the first fully-fledged digital societies is both exciting and terrifying. In the future a person wrongly marked as enemy-of-the-state will be severely limited in options for emancipation.

        • 711yucca on 01/08/2017 - 17:12

          @peterpeterpumpkin: Got another 18 months i'm sure NFC tech will be the norm by then. Agree it is both exciting and terrifying at the same time. After NFC on our mobile phone is as you know it microchip implant to our body…

      • ruprectaus on 31/07/2017 - 19:53

        Well, I use Android Pay all the time, so no NFC would be super annoying.

    Great price for this phone.

    Coupon is limited to first 50 orders.

    It is a International Version and comes with Global ROM and supports OTA updates

  • illumination on 31/07/2017 - 17:10

    Has anyone upgraded from a Redmi Note 2 to this and can comment? Feel like mine is on its last legs..!

      Buy now. Justify the purchase later. :)

    • garage sale on 31/07/2017 - 17:58

      Yes dual SIM works fine …..the note2 went to eBay

        Oh I didn't really mean the dual SIM functionality in particular.. but on that note, the dual SIM of the Note 4 is 4G/3G isn't it?

        How much did you manage to get for your Note 2 on ebay?

        • garage sale on 31/07/2017 - 22:52

          yes, does 3G /4G on dual sims, $80 for the note 2 on ebay, as new condition with a leather flip case.

        • CVonC on 31/07/2017 - 23:17

          @garage sale:

          Note 2 is $80USD from Lightinthebox right now.

        • garage sale on 01/08/2017 - 05:03

          mine came with a case and they had it in 3 days not 4 weeks ….. depends if they needed a phone or just wanted a phone and can wait.

      If the jump was anything like going from the Redmi Note 2 to the Redmi Note 3, you won't be disappointed! The main things I noticed after upgrading were the battery life is miles ahead, the performance seems much smoother, and I think the phone feels more solid in the hand. I can only imagine the Redmi Note 4 would be even better again.

  • illumination on 31/07/2017 - 17:15

    And to think I was at The Good Guys today, and was told their cheapest phone was a Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini for $149 (although a Telstra locked, $99 version is also available)

      So ??

      • illumination on 31/07/2017 - 17:32

        i.e. compare that phone to this one (with price in mind) and see the gulf in class between the two!!

        • lovepub on 31/07/2017 - 17:33
          -7

          How is J1 going to compare with Redmi note 4x…..

          Totally owned by Redmi. Other than that it's called Samsung which wins

        • illumination on 31/07/2017 - 17:36
          +7

          @lovepub: My point is price-wise they are not far off each other (put aside the fact that one's Australian stock vs import)..
          yet are so far apart in terms of quality!

        similar priced - but 5 years older phones were better than J1!

      • garage sale on 31/07/2017 - 22:53

        yeah ….. less than 1080p phones should be banned, worse for landfill and the environment than plastic bags.

  • imtahir7 on 31/07/2017 - 17:18

    which has better bands the note 4 or the note 4x?

    • lovepub on 31/07/2017 - 17:32

      It really doesn't matter about bands unless you use Optus in rural area. city boys won't matter at all.

      • imtahir7 on 31/07/2017 - 17:51

        with optus but not rural.

        new redmis are coming out soon. i might hold off for a little while.

        • garage sale on 31/07/2017 - 18:00
          +1

          Yeah ….android 7 OTA and band 28 before I'd buy another Xiaomi.

        • jlogic on 31/07/2017 - 18:33

          @garage sale: Band 28 really is needed in rural areas. You have 3G fallback in case you need to ring.

          OTA not sure but the phone is getting Nougat so that is a plus, notwithstanding that O is about to be released.

          Also remember the price that you are paying for thr phone as well.

          Also can you confirm that Xiaomi provides security updates outside of whole OS updates?

        • adrianhughes1998 on 31/07/2017 - 20:35

          @garage sale: not going to happen ever again by the looks of it.

          Band 28 was only for Taiwan and the carrier's there for the last few releases of Redmi and Mi 6 etc have snubbed band 28.

        • garage sale on 31/07/2017 - 22:56

          band 28 is starting to be used also in some European countries ….. most manufacturers that sell phones outside of china, Huawei, ZTE, etc have band 28 models ….. Xioami are mainly for domestic market.

        • woodwa on 01/08/2017 - 13:36

          Question: has anyone turned on band 28 and tested in Australia against Telstra and Optus?

    Adreno 506 has 130 GFLOPS (in this SD625), giving this deal a yow-ratio of 130GF/$aud169 = .77

    For context, .5 is pretty good, but some extraordinary deals go up to 2 or even 4.

      Doesn't need to… that battery last two days on the reviews. Pretty sure you can get through the day and whack on charge at night.

        Redmi note 3 gets day and a half with heavy usage so this should get two days or so. As said, doesn't really need quick charge.

  • ABA on 01/08/2017 - 10:54

    Why would you buy this one when Redmi Note 3 Pro can be had for a similar price?

    • illumination on 01/08/2017 - 11:29

      Can you share what you think is better about the Redmi Note 3 Pro? I have read some other comments suggesting the Redmi Note 3 Pro may be better too and find it interesting. Something to do with the chipset?

      • ABA on 01/08/2017 - 11:50

        RNP3 has a faster chipset and one additional band (B8) though the latter does not matter much unless you are on Vodafone. Everything else is exactly the same between the two. Moreover, it has community support and fully functional Lineage OS available.
        Check the comparison here:

        • illumination on 01/08/2017 - 11:51

          I recall reading that there are differences between the camera and battery life though? (RN4 superior)

        • ABA on 01/08/2017 - 11:54

          @illumination: Okkk. Not aware of this though. How much difference? I believe it would be marginal as both have an impressively good battery life and disappointing cameras.

        • bamzero on 01/08/2017 - 12:17

          I think it's only Telstra that use B8 on 4G.

        • ABA on 01/08/2017 - 12:31

          @bamzero: You are actually right. Even Telstra use it in very few places so not a major concern.

        • ozhunter68 on 01/08/2017 - 12:49
