Apple iPhone 8 Plus 64GB (PRODUCT) RED $999 (Was $1149) @ JB Hi-Fi

930

I have been looking for an iPhone 8 Plus and come across this deal for the 64GB. Also with 5% discount on JB Vouchers I can get with Entertainment Card it seems like a good price!

    Is the Red one faster ?

    • +19

      Only if it is moving away from you

      • +1

        Relatively speaking…

    • -3

      Same as other colour.

  • +3

    I had no idea Entertainment Card gave 5% off JB gift cards. Thanks OP for the tip!

    • +1

      Can also get 5% off JBHI egift cards through the suncorp app.

      Your initiation was long overdue, but welcome to the true ozbargain fold

  • +7

    The red on this phone looks sooo good, glad they made the front black instead of the white too.

    • +4

      Why they haven't been making them in this colour from day one is beyond me.

      • +2

        Gotta keep up that product revenue.

        • +3

          Like any business……

    • +1

      once you use a casing on it, your red ont be looking as good as original

      The red on this phone looks sooo good, glad they made the front black instead of the white too.

      It's called the XR.

  • +2

    Cool, have a recent $1,000 GC from an insurance claim for JB.

    Perfect way to convert the GC to Cash

    • +7

      When did Xiaomi became interested in iPhone? 🤣

      • Perfect way to convert the GC to Cash

        Tis but a simple business transaction ;)

      • If you can't beat em join em

      • Xiaomi design 101: You buy an iPhone and copy it.

      • They gotta steal decent ideas from somewhere.

  • Anyone know when cost co are getting the new xr in? I've been told they will sell the 128gb model for $1250

    • +4

      Saw them being sold at Costco Auburn - $1248 for XR in black 128GB - stock may vary

      • Thank u very much :)

      • Good price.. $1175 with proper10 code at mobileciti

    • -4

      just be aware that XR screen isn't Full HD 1080p

  • Camera wise how good or bad is this phone compared to Note 9? Sorry if it sounds a dumb question.

    • +5

      Note 9 has a better camera, noticeable for low light shots or portrait mode.

      • Thanks

  • +3

    Would it be better to pay the $150 more and get a XR?

    • +1

      I think so. X or XR seem within a few hundred of this price.

    • I'm debating the same at present..I think I'm leaning towards the XR for the benefits of chip (faster,efficient) and more current look (present for my wife).

    • +1

      I would (albeit I upgraded from 6 Plus) - XR in a damn good looking phone.

    • -3

      performance wise i think theyre the same. its just the world is shifting toward the gesture based navigation and the notch so i guess $150 is worth it to be Trendy Dendi

      camera better on 8 plus dual lens

        camera better on 8 plus dual lens

        Yes, the 8 Plus has a second telephone lens. But, the primary camera on the XR is a fairly significant upgrade on the 8 Plus. The sensor is 30% larger and post processing, particularly Smart HDR, is a lot better on the XR. Software seems to handle portrait mode very well on the XR, so really the only advantage the 8 Plus camera has over the XR is 2x optical zoom. That’s not worth the trade off of the XR’s advantages in my opinion.

    • +1

      8plus has more pixels

    • +1

      Get the XR! Phone is between the Normal X and Max.. perfect phone size! Paid $1175 128gb version with proper10.

      PS. screen is just fine!

      • +1

        I vouch for it. I just got XR from proper10 deal. The screen is great, what’s the fuss about pixel counts?

      • Does the XR support 3D photos in facebook?

  • -4

    Should be $499.

    • +1

      very optimistic wish

    • fair enough

    • $799 would be a reasonable price for an Apple product

  • -6

    Seriously, why would you buy this over an iPhone XR.

    But really.. really, why would you buy an iPhone over a Galaxy S8

    • -2

      Maybe if you want a 1080p screen?

      • I upgraded from a 6 Plus, don’t think anyone would notice the difference other than it’s not as wide.

    • +3

      If you want iOS? Duh

    • +7

      I guess if you buy an S8 you have to post about it everywhere to justify your decision.

    • S8 has only 1 year is update and 2 year security, iPhone 8 has 34 years of is and security updates. It's faster, battery is better, os is subjective.

  • +6

    This price should be for the 256gb version…

  • -6

    iPhone xr has no hd screen so this over a xr any day. No idea why the comments above would prefer a xr over this. Again a x is better than xr and close in price.

    • +1

      People will barely notice.

    • +1

      Dual sim?

    • +1

      Use it before you judge. I had the XS Max.. sure the screen is a little better but you really can’t tell the difference. I also had the note 9, and Mate 20pro.. ended up with the XR due to the perfect size! XR with HD screen will be so good!

  • +1

    bought one in JB hifi, thanks.

  • +2

    Got the iPhone XR 128gb for $1175 with Proper10 code on mobileciti.. way better. This phone is really good. Screen is just fine.. I returned the mate 20 pro for this.. no regrets :)

    • +1

      I returned the mate 20 pro for this

      You just triggered a whole heapa dudes, LOL

    Thanks, just picked one up.
    AGL Rewards gives 6.5% discount on JB vouchers. I ordered hoping they would send them through a bit quicker than the 3 days they say to allow and was surprised they were emailed within an hour of paying.

  • Bought one and asked for a free case. Now let’s see what will happen in 30 days before owning it permanently.
    Jb’s return deadline is 30 days right?

    • Pretty sure not if it’s used. Could be wrong though.

      • Yeah not gonna open it.

  • +2

    Picked up a gold one for $832.77 tonight at the Big W 10% off and paying with e-gift vouchers at 5% off. Red would have been great but I couldn't justify the extra $117.

    • I cannot find it in big w? What’s the 10% off?

    • Your phone is a non plus mate. $974 at big w with your 0.9 * 0.95 off.

      • Ah, sorry, didn't realise this was a plus.

    • $150 for a bigger screen, better battery life and optical zoom while being red, it's worth it for sure.

    YOU CAN BUY A NEAR NEW IPHONE X FOR THIS MUCH

    • +4

      Near new isn't new.
