Have been eyeing this one and seems like a good deal (for a limited time)…

Says it comes with CN plug. Also need to load google app store apk separately.

Deal says out of stock on my mobile, but in stock on PC - go figure.

As per following website, china version seems to support Band 28 as well:

    has band 28 and because it shipped with oreo on release is also treble compliment which not all android one phones are ( mostly ones released with nougat like xiaomi A1 aren’t)

    so what is the difference between this and and australian models, does china have its own software version or you just factory reset , localise and pick australia ?

    because nfc, band 28 , android one and treble compliance it was one of the phones on my shopping list ….

    • SDF05 on 07/06/2018 - 03:45

      I think it comes with Android One regardless, but you might have to load the app store apk via usb (because China has banned Google). Other than that i don't see anything different.

      Also this is a good price. I really hope Nokia unlocks the bootloader for this sometime soon, such a great phone that has a lot of potential (and supports Treble!) and can be done a lot with Bootloader unlocked.

  • excite on 07/06/2018 - 07:38

    This is not expired, still available, bought the 6GB version which is only available in mainland China.
    I don't see any difference in hardware between this and and Australian models, except someone mentioned that the Australian models only support single sim?
    For some reason, the price for Nokia 7 plus is cheaper in mainland China than in Hongkong and Taiwan

    • piejustice on 07/06/2018 - 07:58

      thanks - updated posting. i based the expiry timer on the original flash deal timer they had.

      also am not sure what the hardware differences are - on paper it looks the same. I guess i'll find out when it comes.

      Is it worth upgrading to the 6GB version?

      • albert0pia on 07/06/2018 - 08:11

        For the sake of future-proofing, you can't go wrong with 6GB of RAM.

        • Jamesx on 07/06/2018 - 09:52

          how often do you buy new phones? future proof? what if battery dies?

        • Cits on 07/06/2018 - 10:05

          @Jamesx: My current phone is 4 years old (One plus One). None removable battery mostly just means it takes 10minutes not 30 seconds to replace.

        • taoz on 07/06/2018 - 20:32

          Can’t see any phone is future proof
          Why people think things are future proof?

      • excite on 07/06/2018 - 08:18

        4GB is probably fine since it comes with Android One, Android system usually slow down over time, but it may be different for Android One?

        • garage sale on 07/06/2018 - 09:48

          it’s like windows PC , slows down not so much because of OS upgrades but old apps that didn’t uninstall completely ( always seem to leave a trail,incase you decide to reinstall) or apps you forgot about …

          always good to do a backup and just reinstall what you want app wise ….

          with treble, supposedly support might be more than 2 years , as it’s will be the abstraction layer gooogle use moving forward to allow new hardware to use android one.

          not all android one phones were released with treble compliance, only ones that were released with oreo and few manufactuers have retrofitted treble code …. my xiaomi A1 missed out …. typical xiaomi obsolescence.

  • excite on 07/06/2018 - 07:44

    also I don't think it is necessary to root and flash to global version as OP suggested, all you need is to download the Google Play apk and install.

    • liquornoodlescabbage on 07/06/2018 - 07:56

      I don't think rooting is possible regardless. Unless anything has changed recently Nokia or HMD Global doesn't allow bootloader unlocking.

      • piejustice on 07/06/2018 - 08:00

        thanks updated post - for some reason it's highlighted on the joybuy website under the "specification" section to root and flash to global version.

      • garage sale on 07/06/2018 - 09:51

        idea of android one is to tighten security and google to patch …. allowing phones to be easily rooted would defeat the purpose of android one and that is for google to look after software ensure a secure handset, and hardware vendors to focus on hardware …..

        • mr626 on 07/06/2018 - 11:24

          And yet, other Android One devices can easily be rooted (the A1, for example).

  • ozrex on 07/06/2018 - 08:26

    Beware, I have seen different versions on eBay and there are some that are missing band 28, including some 6gb variants. I can't see the exact model number on their website.

    • piejustice on 07/06/2018 - 08:34

      From the Q&A section, model number is TA-1062

    • excite on 07/06/2018 - 08:40

      the model no is TA-1062, and it has B28

      • ozrex on 07/06/2018 - 08:43

        Awesome, thanks!

  • ozrex on 07/06/2018 - 09:22

    FYI, when browsing on mobile it says no stock for either, but on a desktop I was able to place an order!

  • garage sale on 07/06/2018 - 09:53

    cheapest AU stock seems to be $480 ….. so trade offs would be delivery times and AU charger and warranty or $100 saving.

    • excite on 07/06/2018 - 10:30

      $480 still imported (from HK), the cheapest AU stock was probably $550 from the JB sale

      • Bigboomboom on 07/06/2018 - 12:26

        There are imported (HK) on eBay for $450 with stock in Australia so delivery within a week or less. This is with pull5 code.

        Or even cheaper at $435 from TW, or $440 from HK with bonus 64Gb Kingston SD card.

        • 33725 on 07/06/2018 - 20:46

          Can you share the link with the bonus 64Gb?

    • mathew42 on 07/06/2018 - 11:02

      The AU stock is single SIM which is a deal breaker for many.

  • jacharya on 07/06/2018 - 10:04

    Thanks Op bought 6gb version.
    For first time buyers (like me) there is an additional US$5 off the price

  • ozrex on 07/06/2018 - 10:10

    I ordered then cancelled (hopefully they refund my PayPal quickly). Not 100% sure this can be flashed to non-china firmware without jumping through lots of hoops. There is a post on XDA about converting it but not going to take the risk.

  • Jamesx on 07/06/2018 - 10:12

    The prices in China from JD is ~$400, if anyone bought enough 20% Catch gift cards with Woollie GCs, could have the phone from Catch for $361 ish. or less if you can get your GCs at 7.5% or less…

    • tlai on 07/06/2018 - 10:15

      The jb one is single sim. This is dual sim as well.

  • m0tyrider on 08/06/2018 - 20:31

    For the money this seems like not a bad phone… I have a LG G4 and I hate it. Wonder if this is worth the upgrade.

  • m0tyrider on 11/06/2018 - 23:08

    Has anybody ever bought from that website before?

    • ESEMCE on 18/06/2018 - 07:56

      Yes, excellent.
      It's the English version of a massive Chinese "Amazon" equivalent, JD.com
      They even ship stuff in ludicrously big boxes with lots of packing just like Amazon!

  • excite on 18/06/2018 - 09:39

    lower price (US$ 273) today

    • jacharya on 23/06/2018 - 11:19

      I just searched for it in my browser on the phone and was presented with an install link.

  • realsniper09 on 25/06/2018 - 20:25

    For delivery times, we bought this phone on OP post date (07/06/18).
    It arrived in metro Melbourne on 22/06/18.
    Works well, nil issues so far. Very happy with it for the price! Thanks OP!!

    • tlai on 26/06/2018 - 19:41

      4GB/6GB?

  • antman on 02/07/2018 - 15:31

    Back in stock and cheaper? No fast shipping kills it for me though.
