      Obviously not. It is just hard to sell. In CHINA we call Oppo: IQ Tester. This company sell low spec phones at ridiculous prices and they are not that optimised as low spec iPhones.

        If a phone doesn't have the following features, then it is a deal breaker for me:
        - Headphone jack
        - Removable Battery
        - Expandable Memory

        This is why iPhones are overpriced crud.

        • Trishool on 14/02/2019 - 13:01
          +3

          Removable Battery

          Which high end phones still have this?

        • freakatronic on 14/02/2019 - 16:36
          +3

          Removable batteries sure were great. But they kept phones going longer than manufacturers wanted. My galaxy S3 ran three years for me, then I passed it to my mum who's run it for another two so far. You think Samsung likes the fact that their phone from 2012 is still running around in someone's pocket, holding them off from buying an S10+ next month? Phone manufacturers are impatient for users to replace their phones. They'd prefer we replaced every month. Notice that I avoid using the word "upgrade" - that's a psychological marketing weapon used to make people feel inadequate while using last year's model.

          • Jec on 15/02/2019 - 09:19

            @freakatronic: I don't disagree with your model or morals, but the last comment about the word upgrade is a bit off.
            Upgrade's definition: "Raise (something) to a higher standard, in particular improve (equipment or machinery) by adding or replacing components." By definition, replacing an older phone with a newer phone is improving the individual components, and can thereby be called an upgrade.

      This only has a snapdragon 710 and a lower res screen. This is nowhere near as good a deal as the recent V30+ deal.

    • giventofly on 14/02/2019 - 10:09
      +5

      The V30 is such a good phone. Never had a phone with this battery life. Loving it

      +10

      Seriously?

      LG V30+ is much better phone.

      SD 835
      Headphone Jack
      Micro SD
      Higher resolution screen
      Quad DAC
      Military Grade toughness (I thought was a gimmick but have dropped my phone few times while waiting for a Spigen case which was on pre-order but not a scratch yet)

          whatever it is the phone is handling falls well.

        • freakatronic on 14/02/2019 - 16:38

          The military gets whatever the government tenders out for the lowest price. It is not a standard of quality to which anyone should aspire.

          • dealhunter52 on 16/02/2019 - 15:28

            @freakatronic: Whatever govt chooses still has to meet the minimum military specified specs and they have pretty strict standards too. Thats the reason that most advanced technology takes years or sometime decades to make it to civilians. For example, ARGUS-IS camera on Predator drones, a 1.8-gigapixel video surveillance platform that can resolve details as small as six inches from an altitude of 20,000 feet (6km).

    I have an r11s and you have to "lock" apps in the multi Tasker to stop them going to sleep otherwise I don't get notifications. Can anyone comment if the R17 pro behaves like this?

    • majbour on 14/02/2019 - 09:48

      Can confirm, had both phones and the r11s was very aggressive. The R17 is not but you dont have the same battery life

    This is a crazy good price. I've been following this phone and ended up buying it 2months ago for $750 so this stings. But it's a great phone for the charging alone. I don't even charge at home anymore, only during my drives in the car since just 10mins charges 40%

    • stockastics on 14/02/2019 - 09:54

      Any review from personal experience?

      • scyth3r on 14/02/2019 - 16:50

        Yeh I'm loving it. Camera is decent and whilst it's not the latest Snapdragon it does everything pretty snappy and I see no lag. My only issue with it is the oppo launcher so I use nova launcher.

      • Cluelessly on 14/02/2019 - 10:23

        Weird, the current catalogue lists that (non-pro) for $599, but links to the Pro.

    • AssociatedShekster @ JB Hi-Fi on 14/02/2019 - 17:10

      Yeah I have to admit that's a big reason why. Absolutely massive difference in stock levels between this and the purple.

    • stockastics on 14/02/2019 - 09:55

      Chinese phones are cheaper as well..so not sure how you are calculating value drop? Percentage wise or dollar wise? You might not get many buyers for a resale for a Chinese phone.

    • dogboy on 14/02/2019 - 12:53

      To be fair the only reason iPhones keep their value better than Android is because of the lack of choice and the mindless fanbois.

    This is the same phone as the OnePlus 6t which is arguably better with stock android and a more powerful SOC.

    • hippo2s on 14/02/2019 - 17:23

      So different soc and OS = not the same phone. But they are very similar and share parts.
