On the look out for a new mobile and this deal is on front page of next weeks JB Hi-Fi catalogue for the LG V30+ at 40% off their current price.
From a quick search it appears to be the cheapest price for local Australian stock, maybe even cheaper than grey import…

      No, the phone comes with unbranded generic earbuds I have never opened or used, USB-c charging cable, fast 16W charger, black cleaning cloth and some small black envelope containing stuff I have never opened.

    If you are looking for better earbuds than the ones included with the v30, I have found the Xiaomi HD earbuds to be very good (especially with the tweak to enable high impedance mode (included in the xda anxious module, requires root), they have been available for $25 before

    Note I am not an audiophile though and the sky is the limit with other options if you are, just the above ones for me have been enjoyable.

    FWIW, I went to Elizabeth St store in Melbourne, they didn't have any, but they have some coming in. I paid up front, and they'll contact me when it arrives. Would have liked one today, but I want the phone in general, so it's still worth it for me to do this. I'm sure it will be offered at other stores.

    Question. Anyone using this with Amazon Prime Video. Says it is only SD????

    Streaming Video Quality: UHD/HDR/HD on Sony Xperia XZ Premium mobile devices; HDR /HD on Samsung Galaxy Note 7/8/9, Galaxy 8/8+/9/9+, Galaxy Tab S3, Sony Xperia XZ1; SD on all other Android devices

    Weird. Supports HDR on Netflix!

    • Major Mess on 11/02/2019 - 00:56

      Prime is like that. They do not officially support Android except for the nvidia Shield. One of my TV boxes only gets SD, but my Samsung Tab S3 gets HD. You might be able to get around it by using a web browser instead of the app. I used the web browser trick to get Stan going when it complained my Android STB was rooted.

      • boxall on 11/02/2019 - 11:41

        S8 is HD as are most Samsungs and some Sonys.

          They were back in stock. Had one in my cart. By the time I filled out payment info it was gone. Annoying. Wish it held the item in your cart for a set period so other people couldn't swoop in!

  • [Deactivated] on 31/01/2019 - 12:58

    I am now interested in this.

    I have an LG G6 H870DS back in 2017 for about $500 odd which has been a great phone for me overall. I purchased it grey import specifically so I could get this model as it's a dual sim. Wasn't available in Australian retailers.
    When I first saw this deal I assumed this model was single sim which is often the case for Australian models but I just checked the specific H930DS model and it's dual so I'm interested.

    Does anyone have any thoughts on the upgrade from the G6 to V30? Worth it?

    • jackwilk on 31/01/2019 - 13:04

      Yeah same here, upgrade from G6 to V30 now or wait for G7….

      • [Deactivated] on 31/01/2019 - 13:26

        Compared to the G6, v30 looks and feels more premium with the polished aluminium, curved front and rear glass, AMOLED screen, slightly lighter, and thinner body. v30 has glass optics and a f1.6 main camera.
        The G6 screen glass is planar.
        To me the v30 felt faster in operation than the G6, 835 vs 821 CPU.
        G7 is narrower so may be better if you prefer narrower handsets, but the v30 feels better in the hand (I have had both).

            @jackwilk: Yeah it is still a great phone with a nice display. Hang onto it.
            I havent had a G7 (although they are narrower than v30), my above comment meant for G6 vs v30

            • [Deactivated] on 31/01/2019 - 14:13

      Just buy a couple so you have a backup when you break the first one. But seriously, I am wondering the same thing (my Moto Z Play screen died on the weekend hence my urgency to get this deal).

        I went naked with my last phone because on the phone before that i just got cheapo ebay glass ones. They made the screen quality not as nice and phone looked a bit uglier. Don't mind paying for something a bit better this time which keeps for a while.

    • [Deactivated] on 31/01/2019 - 16:16

      I am using this one at the moment. LOCA bonded screen protector, match the screen curve and has no airgap because of the LOCA. Comes with LOCA, uv lamp and screen (but no instructions)

      • ClintonL on 31/01/2019 - 17:16

        How easy is that to install?

        • [Deactivated] on 31/01/2019 - 17:40

          It is not as easy as the traditional glass protectors, LOCA gets out while you line it up and press it down to work out the bubbles.
          Probably wear latex/nitrile protective gloves and some kind of UV safe eyewear just to be sure.
          Best to mask off the speakers, microphpones, usb port, sim tray, buttons, (rear camera glass just in case) etc before applying the LOCA, trim masking so it wont get under the protector.
          use isopropyl alcohol or metho afterwards to clean up residue that is still on the screen or edges afterwards.

          5 min UV cure with the supplied lamp resting about 150-200mm above the phone (you need a micro USB cable and USB power supply)
          took about 15 min or so - ends up looking like this

    They also offered a $200 JB voucher if you port to Telstra prepaid ($45/m for 12 mths I believe), which you could take ff the phone cost. I didn't bite, but worth noting if you're keen on Telstra's coverage etc.

    The biggest issue with LG and Samsung is their lathargic and short winded Android update policies. After burning through many LG & Samsung Android phones over the past 10 years, I got sick of the 9-12 month late rollouts and 1-2 years of major upgrades and moved to Oneplus - never looked back.

    • conservative on 31/01/2019 - 21:12

      who cares about updates?

      Phone still works.

      Your phone isn't going to get hacked just because Samsung or Optus haven't released the new Android update quickly. Calm down, petal.

        Great logic. Yeh, I love having all my personal data, banking information, passwords etc available on a device which is exposed to major and easily exploited security holes (KRACK etc) and my phone hasn't had a security update in over 18 months - it's a really comforting feeling. Also, running Android versions which are 2 years behind the current major release when your phone is 2.5-3 years old is awesome too.

    The power of Ozbargain got me! I had zero intention of buying a mobile phone yesterday but today thought I might start investigating what phone to get for my daughter to take to school. Then I see this deal had gone gangbusters so I couldn't miss this. And I'm someone who takes ages to decide on anything.

    The first JB I tried was out of stock. Was told they would be getting 7 in soon and I could buy one now to make sure I would get it. Then was told that the closest JB to this one (6 min drive away) had 2 in stock. So I quickly headed over to the other store and to the surprise of the sales guy and me, he managed to find the last phone out the back.

    Hope I won't regret the purchase.
