          I have a GN4 for last 3 years. I have to change the battery. Tried one from AliExpress. It was crappy. Shopping square had a supposedly genuine Samsung battery, but that turned out to be faker than Kardashian's titties. Only option left now is to get one from Samsung store.

    Persinally not a can. Ive had issues with mine, mostly camera related. It has good front facing speakers and screen for Daydream. The rest, meh. Save a little more and get something better!

    • freemoneyhunter on 18/02/2018 - 12:08

      It's the software for the camera, if you use a 3rd party camera like open camera, it does not do it.

  • KangaBanga on 17/02/2018 - 14:56

    Awesome phone guys, got one last month and it hasn't disappointed. Its running android 6 out of the box but its running fine so I am too lazy to bootloader unlock etc.. and update to latest lineage OS since the Android Orea update is slated for release in April soon anyways.

    It will certainly outperform all the snapdragon 625 phones from Xiaomi since it is after all a flagship phone. However cost wise for sub$200AUD you will probably do ok as well with the Note4x or the Redmi 5 Plus if you are not a power user (which i was considering too)

    But for an extra $100+, this flagship phone from ZTE is really not shabby at all. Especially with the 4GB RAM it should run future android versions well for next couple years at least.

    • Camelface on 17/02/2018 - 15:31

      I previously had a Note4x and this phone is far better in terms of performance and build quality.

      • KangaBanga on 19/02/2018 - 00:03

        Yep me too :D I just gave my note4x to my sister after I got the ZTE.

          I did but got conflicting info…. some said yes and some said no depending on the variant….hence asking for info from someone who bought one from officeworks … I guess I could have talked to officeworks directly if I was currently in AU and they knew what I was talking about…but hanks for the lesson on google…. As your previous comments indicate you have bought one I gues you could have just confirmed it for me if you liked…

    ZTE Australia website lists it as having band 28, as officeworks is an Australian retail store I would say that they would be selling the Australian model variant which would in turn have b28, as per ZTE website

    No offence, but it is one of a not so good looking phone. Apart from warranty and local support, may choose Xiaomi Mi5s.

    • RedSky on 18/02/2018 - 17:12

      Features is what sets it apart OLED, front stereo speakers, custom DAC.

      The Mi5s's front without speakers might look 'cleaner' but I wouldn't give them up.

    • Almost Banned on 21/02/2018 - 17:18

  • King Tightarse on 17/02/2018 - 19:02

    Yeah went into Officeworks because of all the interest here but didn't walk out with it based on the design when looking right at it in the hand. Personal preference. Good specs though.

    • freemoneyhunter on 18/02/2018 - 14:05

      The look grows on you, also you should get a case and it makes the phone look different. Up to you but I think you may feel stupid when someone says to you, that is a nice looking phone you have, but it doesn't have stereo Dolby speakers or daydream support and is more expensive than the Axon, why didn't did you buy it?

      • King Tightarse on 18/02/2018 - 16:55
        +1

        Overall physical size. 5.5 is just a little much towards phablet size for me. Its got to slip comfortably in the jeans pocket. 5.1 seems spot on. It's totally personal prefferance. May well be perfect for many others. As for somebody commenting on my phones specs like that… is never happened in real life and I doubt it would.
        Why didn't I buy it? I just didn't quite like the build style and size when I saw it in my hand.

        • freemoneyhunter on 18/02/2018 - 17:02
          +1

          Yes I have the same problem with the size, it is not comfortable in my hand either. Sorry I thought you didn't like the look of it. It feels abit awkward to control compared to my old iPhone4.

  • thehulk1969 on 17/02/2018 - 20:45

    Where does it refer to 'Plus free repair for accidental screen damage for the first 2 years'…I can't see it on Officeworks website or is it exclusive to ZTE.

  • adr8 on 17/02/2018 - 21:27

    Is the mic problem wide spread or is it just a few cases and has ZTE provided a fix?

    • simonizmaster on 19/02/2018 - 09:21

      Yes, I had some mic issues, time to time when receiving calls. I think it's the software issue. Any fix for this?

  • NotAnAudiophile on 17/02/2018 - 22:00

    i ordered 1 online for pickup in store yesterday afternoon and have a confirmed order, as I was looking out for stock to come back. The specs it has blows all Chinadroids based on 625 out of the water, the Antutu scores are like double that of the 625. And its even competitive (slightly faster) than the new Xiaomi Note 5 pro (SD636) that was announced for India this week. The Note 5 pro doesnt even have NFC or Quick Charge 3, nor USB-C with the Axon 7 has, not to mention Dolby Atmos speakers, a AKM9940 audio DAC.

    With Oreo in April you can't lose. For me its a secondary phone, 2k screen and Daydream support is a bonus.

  • Gomo on 18/02/2018 - 09:53

    So with no local stock is it safe to say $355 is the price you'll have to pay for a gold etc?

    Went ahead with it regardless of $355 still a good price, :) Will hopefully get confirmation to collect early next week !

    Thank you,
    Your order *********is confirmed
    Oxley Officeworks will contact you when your order is ready for collection.

    We have emailed you an order summary and confirmation. If you have any questions, please call customer service on 1300 OFFICE or 1300 633 423 between 8 AM and 8 PM (AEST), Monday to Friday or 9 AM and 5 PM (AEST) Saturday to Sunday.

    • NotAnAudiophile on 18/02/2018 - 12:06

      The super deal is the grey one at 299 which is the one i bought but sadly out of stock now. With TRS its $275 which is crazy for a phone with this kind of specs.

      My daily driver is a LG v30 and the axon is even starting to get competitive with that…except for SD835 vs SD820.

      • Gomo on 18/02/2018 - 13:55

        Fair enough all good I did receive the confirmation email from Officeworks so it looks like the order is actually going ahead we'll find out on Monday when they're scheduled pick up notification should come through!

        The phone will be replacing a OnePlus X !

        My wife wanted to upgrade as she said battery life wasn't lasting as long anymore will be a handy spare phone either way.. the OnePlus X also has AMOLED screen that's why I picked this particular handset 😉

      • dqtl74 on 18/02/2018 - 14:40

        Doesn't TRS have a $300 minimum? Better add something $1 to make it count.

  • freemoneyhunter on 18/02/2018 - 12:15

    I bought mine secondhand off ebay for $500 which came with daydream. Bastard kept the quick charger and microphone headset, I was going to leave neg feedback but it said what you see is what you get, so just didn't leave any feedback. Still happy with the phone thou, it is great but I upgraded from a smashed screen iPhone 4.

      With oreo in april, if you dont need flagship specs i daresay it will be nice to use for the next year if not 2. I have a cheap daydream headset picked up from telstra ebay at $25 to play with.

      • freemoneyhunter on 18/02/2018 - 13:28

        I'll probably use it for the next 7 years like I did with my iPhone4 unless I break the screen before then. I don't use the phone for apps or games much, in fact I was browsing the play store last night and didn't find anything interesting. Whenever I download a game I play it for 1 minute and turn it off. Stuff I do use a lot is Maps, Browser to download podcasts and check banking accounts (you do not need a banking app) and listening to podcasts. I may watch the occasional movie on the daydream or play ocean rift, most applications/games on daydream are useless but it's still nice to have.

        • PainToad on 18/02/2018 - 18:43

          You were doing online banking on a phone that hadn't had a security update in nearly 4 years…someone likes to live dangerously. The bank should of been blocking you.

          @PainToad: No I understand that, I usually use my PC for banking, I may have used it a few times but it was to double check my pay went through before I filled up at a gas station if I didn't have cash on me.

      I always assume unless they picture peripherals or say "comes with everything in the box" then what you see is what you get. Sometimes there's a nice bonus.

      One time, I bought a pair of headphones with detachable cable. Auction says there's no cable. Turns out they were hidden in the box packaging he'd never fully opened. Score!

  • NotAnAudiophile on 20/02/2018 - 13:37
