Cheapest deal found on staticice.

Apple iPhone X 256GB Silver - $1649 $1674 + $29.99 postage
Apple iPhone X 256GB Space Grey - $1664 $1674 + $29.99 postage

I price matched at Office Works and got further 5% off for the Space Grey. They take into account the postage cost of $29.99 from Techrific which ends up being $1609.25 after the 5% off. Good for those travelling overseas (which I am!) to get a further 10% off on Tax Refund. Total for me will come to $1462.95 after TRS. Pretty good deal for the X IMO.

          Depending on your purchase amount, they may make a note to check on you when you return. I think you need to be doing something like $100k for them to check. Few thousand is pretty much guaranteed no probs.

      Depends on what you value/want to spend your money on. People buying luxury cars that cost $100k+ to me is crazy.

      I will be getting one in February (plan will be up) and am looking for to it. I consider its features awesome. And I don't want Android (which a similar Android S8+ is only $50 less) because I ran an iPad and MacBook so the Apple ecosystem is awesome.

          Not at all. Your implying that because I have spent so much on their gear that I can't leave it without suffering loses. False.

          First: If I wanted to sell my iPad, iPhone and Mac I could pretty easily since they hold they value better than most.

          Second: I choose to buy them. I am an Senior Infrastructure Engineer did my research. I have used almost every product and OS out there. I find they are great and just work… no dicking around etc.

          @Save Medicare:

          Didn't say they are wrong. The gear works, but it is not their top of the line gear. Thousands of businesses (like myself) purchase them for two reasons. 1st the price and 2nd the support built around it. The latitude is built to be easily repairable so that when things go wrong on them a tech can be out within a day repairing it.

          My comment was that the Dell range that mirrors built quality/design/features to Apple is their XPS range.

        What you have against Samsung? They make nice phones.
        Wish they'd drop the wanky edge display, though. I wish every manufacturer just used a completely flat piece of glass, so getting a well-fitting screen protecting wasn't such a pain in the ass.

          I chose HTC over Samsung simply because the s8 has the edge screen (annoying) and because the phone is more narrow, makes it harder to text with two hands.

    • garage sale on 07/01/2018 - 16:29

      buy it from telstra and use their “ new phone feel” deal, they give you a new phone every year …. it all comes with a price.

      • resisting the urge on 07/01/2018 - 19:40
        +2

        @garage sale: Is that advice? Given on OzB?

        1. market price is consistently 10-30% cheaper than Helstra
        2. Buying at a discount avoids:
          • lock-in (additional costs when market prices falls)
          • Pumped up service costs
          • Pumped up finance costs
          • Impossible service and stupidity (who knows what cost)
          • Mistakes from publication of customer data on the internet (spreadsheets, network compromises, stupidity etc.)
          • etc.

        Ok so no-one else finances phones as actively as the 'new phone feel program', but it sure isn't value. Even if you love land-filling phones it is hardly cheap when you consider the associated costs

        PS. OK, so yes you did say 'at a price', but you also started with 'buy it from telstra'. That got me going, straight off the bat. My apologies!

    • daven1985 on 07/01/2018 - 19:44

      Unless it has damage Apple will honour 3 years with it generally. Since ACL says a device must be covered for a reasonable period of time based on its value then a $1500+ phone will get at least 2 years if not more.

          https://www.apple.com/au/shop/product/MMEF2ZA/A/airpods

          At this point you are not insured so if some ass steals your phone you are going to have a bad time. How much would it cost to insure this? Maybe $12 per month.

        If you do 1 screen in that time, its not a bad price. My last 6+ i did 2 screens (just the glass, not the lcd) and one bendy incident. Had to pay for the screens at about $200 a throw.

        In all the years leading up to this phone i've never cracked a screen, but what can i say.. kids… AR mobile games… none of that was around for me when i had a Nokia 7650 :p

  • BargainKen on 07/01/2018 - 13:07
    +3

    I bought one full RRP but its going back, as nice as it is, its just too small for my liking. I thought it'd replace the plus with the larger screen/less bezel but its thinner too, so everything looks smaller and less screen real-estate. The UI is still in its infancy and they arent making full use of whats there, lots of wasted space especially with on-screen keyboard. I suspect a new "plus" model will come out soon with more screen real-estate, then i might give it another go. Till then I'll make-do with the 7+.

    Face-ID is great, better then Samsung's for sure but it still feels very first-gen slow (like touch ID from Iphone 5/5s/6). Overall nice phone, good first attempt with OLED but I can't give up that screen real-estate and dont feel like being a beta-tester, not for $1829.

    For that money, it better be better than perfect :)

    I run android too so no bias here :)

    • dazweeja on 07/01/2018 - 13:43

      I think the combination of Face ID and Touch ID would be great. Touch ID for unlocking the phone while pulling it out of your pocket or other situations, Face ID for while you're using the phone, e.g. seamlessly authorising in-app/payments.

      • daven1985 on 07/01/2018 - 19:46

        Agree! I would have loved a Touch ID at the back… however Apple are a company known for giving you the next big thing not want everyone else was doing. If they had put a Touch ID on the back everyone would just scream they copied the Pixel. And if they are not used the notch everyone would claim they were just copying Samsung's design.

    • ozeebee on 07/01/2018 - 14:44

      Did you miss having the home button on the X? I still prefer touch unlock to iris/face unlock.

      I had Galaxy S8+ which had that stupid location for fingerprint sensor which meant to unlock when the phone is on a desk means lifting the phone or having to position your face for the phone to unlock. I’m running a iphone 7+ now which is still best for useability. I’m hoping that future X’s will have a built in screen fingerprint scanner.

      • BargainKen on 07/01/2018 - 17:39

        I got used to it with the gesture base actions. I use the note and I like the inclusion of the finger sensor for backup if the front one fails. It's not that awkward for myself to access but can be for others.

    • theo96 on 08/01/2018 - 12:02

      I too went from the 7+ to the X and initially found the X screen to be too small (I set the 7+ display to zoomed) and Face ID too slow/inconvenient (you need to angle the phone towards your face to unlock which can be awkward in situations like when the payment machine is not facing you).

      I thought of returning the X (another advantage of buying from Apple — you can basically just return it within 2 weeks with no hassles) but after couple of weeks of using the X I'm finding the new UI gestures for replacing the home button to be super convenient e.g. simply swiping to switch apps instead of double-clicking the home button.

      I run android too :) Speaking of which, I was surprised/disappointed to find the built-in system backups do not backup SMS/text messages when I recently did a backup/restore. And this was on a Nexus device. iPhone users take complete backup/restores for granted.

    • JTTheMan on 08/01/2018 - 13:41

      Thanks for that insight BargainKen.
      I have been umming and ahhing since the release of the X whether to buy or not to buy and still not 100% sure.
      I'm waiting on a good deal to sway me.

      I'm holding on to my 6+ (on my second refurbished replacement under warranty) and getting very annoyed with Apple lately but I'm pretty much stuck in their ecosystem with a watch (it doesn't do anything without an iPhone!), ipad, macbook, mac mini, apple tv.
      I have looked at Android alternatives and they are nice (especially the Galaxy camera) but I'm very hesitant to switch.

      I keep saying I'll wait til the next iPhone release but I've gone through 7, 8 and X without biting. The watch is probably the main thing holding me on at the moment and I'm considering selling?

          This is Ozbargain which means if a product is cheaper at one place compared to others then it’s a good deal. Regardless of price.

          You can go setup Ozvalueformoney website if you want to preach value for money.

          I think at the end of the day one's perception of value to another is different. Something may be expensive to one but not another and we should not be judgemental on how people spend. We can all have our opinions, but we can be nice about it.

        • virhlpool on 07/01/2018 - 17:04

          @nizsmo: That's true. The same goes for cars, watches, perfumes, hotels, air tickets and all other luxuries.

          I guess 'perception of value for money' changes with wealth one has (for the current needs/ requirements) and also lessons one has learnt in the past (e.g. losses made, etc). Some things I used to consider cheap some years ago when I lived in a different city are now expensive because I live in Sydney and I know how much MORE I need to save to buy a shelter here. At the same time, if someone already has one shelter and is happy with that, he can spend much more on goods he/she desires. Whilst income may remain the same, situations may make one poor or rich when it comes to his/her spending power on such things. If I didn't have any pressure to save up, I would probably see brands from different lenses and not the lens of 'value for money'.

    What’s the best price for an iPhone 8?

    So many haters just because the phone is expensive. If people have the money and want it who cares? This is a great bargain and the poster has done well. Don't waste the comment section tearing others down just because you can't or don't want to fork up the money for it. Different strokes for different folks.

    • Salmando on 08/01/2018 - 12:11

      Gotta do what you can to fight Apple on this.

      • UponOccasion on 08/01/2018 - 12:21

        Sorry can't tell if this one is sarcasim

        • Salmando on 08/01/2018 - 20:00

          Kinda? I personally don't care. For me, if Apple can get away with it then they should. They are exploiting people, but I only judge the people who but the phone, not Apple themselves.

          However, since Apple lead the premium phone line, them upping the price of their top phone will drive up the price of premium Android phones. For those who don't want Samsung and such following this trend, and still want the best phone; the best they can do is try to persuade others not to buy Apples iPhone X, hoping that the sales will ultimately be poor enough for Apple to reconsider the profit margin it's trying to make.

        • UponOccasion on 08/01/2018 - 21:26

          @Salmando: Why even judge the people? If you've got the money there are plenty of reasons to buy the iPhone X. It could be you want the power of the A11 chip which far outstrips every other SOC in the market. It could be because they require the locked down security environment of IOS. It could be they like the user environment of IOS over android but still want an OLED screen or maybe they want the user support of 3-5 years worth of updates. There are lots of reasons to buy different phones but the only fool in this thread is you if you think a few comments in an Ozbargain thread will bring down their pricing strategy of a business that is sitting on some of the largest cash reserves in the world. Samsung will likely follow their lead for pricing while doing their own thing like with the headphone jack. It's very hard to change Samsung's mind just like Apple, all you need to see that is their stubbornness on the bixby button.

        • Salmando on 09/01/2018 - 13:08

          @UponOccasion:
          Am I not allowed to judge people?
          As great as this phone may be, it doesn't justify the price.
          The people who own this phone shouldn't care what I think about them, so no harm me thinking less of them.

        • UponOccasion on 09/01/2018 - 13:28

          @Salmando: You can judge if you really wish it but it will do you no favours and such petty judgement will only open you yourself up to judgement for your condescension. As I said there are many reasons why one might buy this phone regardless of the price and if they can afford it even those with the money too may appreciate the discount. Why discourage users from submitting what is a legitimate deal simply because you don't like the pricing strategy of the brand? Any point you may have is lost in negativity.

      Almost $1680 more than one if the phones we sell at work.

    Keep in mind, the CEO interpretation of accurate is up for debate. Chinese labour costs aren't that much either. Doesn't take many man-hours to assemble and test.

    • joeiwu on 07/01/2018 - 14:43

      These figures are always interesting, but its far from the only cost of the actual phone, despite the relatively expensive price of the phone. Tear-downs are a good indicator of what the parts cost, but the actual cost of the phone != the cost of the parts and assembly.

        like comparing the cost of the ingredients in meal to the cost of the actual meal at a restaurant , or the cost of grapes to make a $500 bottle of wine …. it’s how many they can make and the market is willing to buy ….

        • Blitzfx on 07/01/2018 - 18:57

          Yeah, I'm not about to pay $15 for a bowl of salad when I can go to woolies and throw together the same thing for $5 and 2x the portion.

          Or cook chicken schnitz with 2x as much cheese , including the gas and electricity used for waaaay less than the $25~ they're asking me.

    Still can't afford it, I'm a Pixel guy now.

    • theo96 on 08/01/2018 - 12:07

      And Pixels are cheap? :) That's like saying I can't afford to drive a Mercedes Benz so I drive a BMW :))

      • qtntom on 08/01/2018 - 21:39

        Not cheap RRP but for 59$/m upgraded from new contract of 49/m plus gift cards it is affordable ;)

  • entropysbane on 07/01/2018 - 14:31

    Hmmm, I would like clarification on whether or not these are grey market or Apple AU supplied. You will only get the Apple warranty and not the second twelve months if that is grey market. “aus stock” could be interpreted all sorts of ways.
    Here is a cheap iPhone 8 that techrific has https://www.techrific.com.au/mobile-phones/apple/brand-new-a… with the claim it has “Apple warranty”. Well, of course. But as a grey market it won’t have Australian warranty.

    • myghetto on 07/01/2018 - 17:20

      I will post the reply from Techrific regarding this matter when they reply. Otherwise I would suggest price matching with Office Works as you will have the "24 months" warranty.

    $1600+ iPhone on ozbargain. LOL.

  • ozibargainer on 07/01/2018 - 14:41

    And if you can get David Jones to pricematch you can score extra 10% OFF through Entertainment Book

    • joeiwu on 07/01/2018 - 14:46

      Or better yet if you can get Harvey Norman to price match, AND you had 4 AMEX cards and bought $1600 worth of HN vouchers for $1200, plus TRS you would be pushing the price down to pretty close to the $1k mark which is absolutely awesome if you can be in that situation (chances are not big, but many people did buy HN vouchers with AMEX cards at the end of last year).

    • myghetto on 07/01/2018 - 17:22

      It would be nice but DJ and Myer are both tough to price match. They will always use the excuse of "below cost price". Their "cost price" has to factor in labor and operation costs so it would be hard to get them down. Apple products are probably the hardest…
