Updated the price from Lease option to Own a phone.. Lease option has $10 lower price.

Own A phone Price : S9 64GB/256GB $69/$84 or S9+ 64GB/256GB $74/ $79pm
Lease A phone Price : S9 64GB/256GB $59/$74 or S9+ 64GB/256GB $64/ $69pm

Similar to previous deal & Seems like good plan on S9+ 256GB for $79pm
Difference is 150 mins Int calls are not included in these plans but it has got 25 GB (15GB+10GB Bonus Online only) + Standard International SMS/MMS - UNLIMITED & less price on S9+ 256GB :)

Lease option :

On My Plan Flex, you have the freedom to upgrade to a new device after 12 months, for $99, when you return the current phone in good working order and sign up to a new eligible 24-month plan.

And, while you don't own the phone, you could pay up to $10 less on your monthly bill on some My Plan Flex and handset combinations, compared to similar My Plan Plus options. What is leasing?

    "Seems like good plan"

    plan is NEVER good. buy outright and get postpaid non contract sim card.
    the value of freedom is priceless.

    • nubzy on 24/05/2018 - 16:21

      Agree. Still on $15 p/m non contract with 1.5GB data, plenty for me and I use my phone for emails and browsing all the time. Hoping for a good deal on an outright S9+ under $900, then I might be tempted to sell my phone and upgrade.

      Get a hex debt, get a puppy, marry, have kids get a 30 year mortgage, refuse to get 24 month phone contract to remain 'free'.

    • Make it so on 24/05/2018 - 18:00

      I used to believe that, but in recent years there have been good deals on plans with phones. It's mostly because plans without phones have gone up in price. You used to be able to get by on less than $20/month, but nowadays any half-decent plan is $30/month. I used to only buy grey-import phones, but with some Ozbargain specials of late, it's because worthwhile buying phones on plans.

      • TightAssDude on 24/05/2018 - 21:27

        Agree. To make this plan of equal value to going sim only, the phone must be bought at $700 or less.

  • jasswolf on 24/05/2018 - 15:51

    So this is a $5/month drop in price for the S9+ compared to the last deal.

  • YellowKnight on 24/05/2018 - 15:55

    Same as last deal? Seems like just an extension of the last deal.

      Have updated description. both options are available

      Own A phone Price : S9 64GB/256GB $69/$84 or S9+ 64GB/256GB $74/ $79pm
      Lease A phone Price : S9 64GB/256GB $59/$74 or S9+ 64GB/256GB $64/ $69pm

  • bisaya on 24/05/2018 - 16:02

    good deal.

    crazy that for $10 extra a month you own the phone. Lease would only really be worth it if you can tax deduct?

    Good deal I believe. My only turn off is no overseas minutes. One of the many cons of being an expat :(

      There's a $5 extra for 150 mins in 40 countries. But my country is not included. Maybe yours is. :(

      Edit: I think you have to add $10 by calling Optus, maybe they're removing international calls after 21 May 2018. Found more info in here

  • FabMan on 24/05/2018 - 18:11

    International (Australian) S9s apparently not as good as American version, just a heads up. Reason why I got the S8 on a deal recently instead of S9.

    • sam91 on 24/05/2018 - 19:01

      That's not true. Infact the international version is better cause it can be rooted and loaded with a custom rom. If you did your research you would know this.

        "If you did your research you would know this."

        Hey Sam91, why is it people can't stop being arseholes to other people?

        The Exynos 9810 supplied in the Samsung S9 International version is being recorded as not just being slower than the Qualcomm 845 in the American version, but slower many times than the S8s E8895 in multitasking:

        https://www.anandtech.com/show/12478/exynos-9810-handson-awk…
        https://www.anandtech.com/show/12520/the-galaxy-s9-review/6
        https://www.anandtech.com/show/12615/improving-exynos-9810-g…
        https://www.anandtech.com/show/12620/improving-the-exynos-98…

        There is my research, it is faster in single threaded synthetic benchmarks, but in real case uses, multitasking and gaming it falls behind the Qualcomm 845, and many other chips including sometimes the S8 chip. I was trying to bring awareness before people spent a lot of money on a premium phone.

        • TightAssDude on 24/05/2018 - 21:29

          That's the spirit.

          Nice reply my man!

          Seeing as you seem to be a bit of an expert or at least at researching. Do you have any info of the power consumption difference between the 845 and 9810? I am not too concerned about performance but more battery life.

        • FabMan on 25/05/2018 - 20:50

          @knobbs:

          According to the articles, the Exynos 9810 consumes a lot more power at load and generates more heat than the Qualcomm 845 and the S8s Exynos 8895, that is why Samsung have introduced the down clocking of the 9810 during many operations so that it runs more energy efficiently. Regardless it still consumes more power than the 845. Though in the article it mentions an options in the settings to run 'CPU Limited Mode', reduces speeds of CPU and almost halves the energy consumption if that is any help.

          Definitely not an expert, I do enjoy researching some subjects, such as phone CPUs. I wouldn't do this for the phones cameras or audio.

        • knobbs on 25/05/2018 - 21:35

          @FabMan: Ohhhh yes I will have to check in on that. In developer options I am guessing?

  • ytneni on 24/05/2018 - 18:39

    I know it's in the other deal but it might be good to mention that this isn't available for Trade Up or Flex Upgrade Customers :)

  • YellowKnight on 24/05/2018 - 21:58

    How long till these hit the $59 mark with international calls.

  • ChickenAdobo on 26/05/2018 - 00:38

    The international calls offering is now a donkey on the new plans compared to the old plans, excluding unlimited calls to the Philippines to a 10 buck pack with only 300 minutes.

    • YellowKnight on 26/05/2018 - 08:42

      Username checks out, but your comment does not make sense.

      • ChickenAdobo on 26/05/2018 - 13:27

        If you remember the old plan you would have noticed that Philippines was on the included unlimited international calls countries.

        On the new plans Philippines is now off the list of unlimited call countries. To call someone in the Philippines on the new plans you need to purchase an additional 10 dollar international call and text package from Optus again otherwise you will pay Optus their expensive flagfall rate by the minute/s.

        This new additional call and text pack only has 300 minutes to Philippines with unlimited sms per month.

        • YellowKnight on 26/05/2018 - 13:37

          I never recalled unlimited calls to Philippines

  • Jaybrissy92 on 26/05/2018 - 16:57
