      no they would repair the phone or give you another one so you have a repairedd 2 year old phone or a 2 year old refurbished phone.

      you can relive that new phone smell.

    The only store I could actually find that had it in stock was Hobart.

    Everywhere else was either out of stock or limited - please call (which basically means out of stock).

    • likang-c on 12/01/2018 - 20:00

      Interesting, when they had Z623 speakers for $88, my local store said out of stock, still called and they had one left. May as well give it a shot.

  • goldiep on 12/01/2018 - 18:29

    The were a few in Victoria (8+ stores checking two postcodes) - perhaps not so much in Tasmania? I would look but it's a PITA to check/confirm.

    • Nousernamehere on 12/01/2018 - 18:36

      I literally just tried 10 random Victorian post codes from google on their website, and not one came up with 'in stock'. As I said, 'limited - please call' 99% of the time means it's out of stock.

      BTW I'm not in Tasmania, I just did a quick search of all the state's CBD postcodes and Hobart was the only one to show up any stock.

        I guess thats what the complimentary VIP Accidental Cover Package is for. I tried this with my note but backed out at the superglue stage as I wasnt prepared to destroy a 256GB card just yet :)

        Superglue is a lot thinner then a glue gun and more permanent. Not always a good thing.

      • CVonC on 12/01/2018 - 21:56

        What's the point though if the second SIM slot is 2G only according to GSM Arena?

        It comes with a hybrid nano-SIM/microSD slot. The secondary card can only hook to 2G networks while the primary one gets the full set of cellular connectivity.

        • HandsomeMonkey on 12/01/2018 - 22:53

    I have one of these, they are a great phone, has dual speakers and the sound quality is very good. It was also mentioned to be the best phone for using daydream as the phones speakers stick out of the sides of the daydream so you don't need headphones.

    Normally these are $500.

    • pennypincher98 on 12/01/2018 - 19:51
      +2

      Last I heard, OW don't have to give a refund if you use the phone for a few weeks and then decide that you don't like it. That's going to make it hard for them to resell once its opened and been used.

      Under the same logic, can I drive my Lambo for 30 days and then take it back and be refunded?

        If you factory reset before return, (which you should anyway), why does it matter whether you set up a Google account or not?

        After all, how are you going to see if the phone is suitable if you can't install anything off the Play Store.

      The Camera is usually faulty, if you force it to take pictures up close it goes nuts and you have to restart the phone for the camera to work again. Screen scratches easy, it has more scratches on the screen now than my phone 4 which I had for 7 years. The phone is too big for my hands, I think 5.5" is too big. Main reason I bought it though was for daydream and it recommends 5.5"

      Other than that, good phone.

      When I went to Joondalup WA to see if they had one, I called first, they checked their stock and said they had none of them. I was in that store ten minutes later to double check (Picking up Friday Grog from the drive through bottle shop nearby), and when I was in the store they had one brand new one that I picked up, and another there too (I asked the lady serving me why I was told that they did not have any when I rang, and she said that they did not show any on hand on their in store computer stock check, but they actually do have them. She said it happens all the time).
