    I’m finish chatting with optus and confirm with s9plus $74 a month 20GB With a total of $1776 over 24 months, which the phone will cost me $1008 in 24 months, very good deal

        • auna on 17/03/2018 - 19:41

          @pyro love bird: there’s actually no reason not to go on 36 month. You can pay it off at 24 month point and recontract.

        • pyro love bird on 18/03/2018 - 12:44

          @auna: You'd have to recontract with Voda though, I'm trying to get off of them

        • jerjergege on 24/03/2018 - 23:51

          @RogueWolf: No lock in contract, when you cancel you only pay off the phone, essentially a interest free loan for the phone.

        • RogueWolf on 24/03/2018 - 23:55

          @jerjergege: that’s when you realise that barely any of your payments have been coming off the handset

        • jerjergege on 25/03/2018 - 12:58

          @RogueWolf: Still better than paying it off in one go,.

          I upgrade phones every year, but i can see a benefit to the people who may use a phone over 2+, meaning they won't need to pay the huge lump sum.

          Not for all, but still pretty good.

    • tight-ass on 17/03/2018 - 13:31
      +3

      Finally Samsung are starting to give consumers in Australia the full range of options when it comes to colours and specifications.

      For example the Coral Blue colour wasn't offered in Australia for the S7, the S8 you could get it only at Samsung outlets and now it's available everywhere for the S9. Although now that the front of the phones are black regardless of what colour you pick it doesn't matter so much - especially if you put your phone in a case.

      Just need Samsung to sell dual sims phones in Oz now

      • BargainKen on 17/03/2018 - 14:29

        Yup until then its grey imports for me. Dont like the gimped local models.

      If you like a lot of features / slow updates - S9 - If you like a really good camera / really fast updates - Pixel 2 XL -

    • ce5himm on 17/03/2018 - 14:29
      +6

      Also make sure you check those blue tint screen on the pixel and other bugs on the internet. If you care about that go s9. Do not get me wrong, I am typing on pixel right now. It is a great phone, but not you'd expect from a rrp 13xx phone.

      • plentifoo on 17/03/2018 - 15:04
        +5

        honestly though once you use a phone with an infinity screen and curved edges…a phone with a rectangular screen and massive bezels just seems so….primitive. true story, my friend showed me his pixel 2 and i was actually physically repulsed by it lol, i mean it's 2018! Probably gonna cop some flak but I just had to make a point lol.

        • ce5himm on 17/03/2018 - 15:44

          Pixel 2 xl is not that bad. Agree that 2 look is not so 2018. Also still a lot of people out there do not like those curved edge include myself. That's why I choose s7 instead of edge before. However they are both amazing phones out there you can buy.

        • Icecold5000 on 17/03/2018 - 15:59

          @Icecold5000:

          If it's a blast from the past, sure, but not for a 2018 mode. I see a rectangular screened phone in action now I giggle to myself a little, similar to when I see someone use a phone with actual buttons on them.

    • Hoangkar on 17/03/2018 - 15:34

      i got the pixel 2 xl yesterday bang for buck i reckon, up to you there pro and cons for both phone. pixel stock android fast update,come with google home mini, only 59 a month and your with Telstra cant go wrong. while the s9 has heap more like f1.5, headphone jack 256gb option 20gb data a month,

    • Quotationz on 17/03/2018 - 16:02

      I've got the pixel 2 xl also. Great phone. Converted from iPhone everything transferred in 5 minutes all apps photos. Is a great phone

        How did u transfer everything in 5 mins?

        • Quotationz on 23/03/2018 - 20:40

          With the lightning cable plugged into iPhone and the USB plugged into pixel 2xl during set up copies everything

    • HappyPooPants on 17/03/2018 - 16:06

      Go physically check out both phones. I actually prefer the look and feel of the he pixel 2 xl. Yes I'm probably the majority. The pixel just feels more premium.
      Yeah the blue tint is there if don't know how to actually hold a phone.

    • scuderiarmani on 17/03/2018 - 16:48

      Personally from a Note 8 user, I had my mum purchase the Pixel 2 XL abd I reckon its a better phone than what I'm using. Already on 8.1 too.

  • dealdude on 17/03/2018 - 13:41

    Damn, I wish I knew Optus were doing the $59 before I preordered. I would have signed up at Harvey Norman for sure to get the $100 eftpos card too! I preordered on a higher plan with no gift card from an optus shop. Do you think I can go back to an optus shop and get it switched over?

    • Buff on 17/03/2018 - 14:25

    if they fix the shitty battery issue on the s8, i'll defo pay for the upgrade.

    • Higibbo on 17/03/2018 - 15:32

      I just spoke to optus chat - my plan ends in September though. they said would take the remaining handset repayments out of the next 3 payments, so selling my s7 on ,say, mobile monster would almost cover the payout fee in my case. Disclaimer - chat to Optus chat to confirm

    Will there be a cheaper similar plan out in 3-4 months time?

    Battery on my s5 has expanded and also caused my screen to split out. My phone still works though. Not really urgent for me to replace it, but I could still if I wanted

  • benandfaith on 17/03/2018 - 19:22

    How does the free plan cancellation with phone payout work? I can't find on the CIS how much the phone is worth.

    If the monthly handset repayment is only $10, is it just $10 x remaining months of contract? That can't be right… does anyone know?

    • MaxPower1982 on 17/03/2018 - 19:39

      Check your contract, it will have actual cost of phone in there. Divide by 24 and multiply by remaining months. I recently did that.

      • benandfaith on 17/03/2018 - 23:38

        I'm not on contact. Haven't purchased this yet. Just checking what the costs might be if I break contact.

    • crazym0nkey on 18/03/2018 - 01:37

      Those handset payments are discounted by the carrier.
      When you cancel, you pay the remaining months, but at the non-discounted price.
      Which is RRP divide by 24months.
      Usually how it works.

    • baz3189 on 18/03/2018 - 13:46

      The S9+ is $56 a month if you cancel your contract, I assume the S9 would be around $50

  • GerrardLFC on 17/03/2018 - 19:24

    Optus really do not like their current customers.

    No Trade Up allowed - ok same deal as previous S8 $59 deal.

    I accept to pay out current plan and get new plan but they will not allow bundle discount from current plan to this plan even though the CIS clearly says if you have other Optus services you will get discount. Why bother including it in the CIS if no discount allowed
