Bonus Sonos One Smartspeaker available via redemption which has been on sale recently for $250+.

Phones are Dual Sim variants - Confirmed on JB Hi-Fi's website

In store only. You would be able to claim TRS with the Invoice as well

Screenshot of the offer

Plan inclusions: Unlimited National talk and text + 80 GB data (Initial offer was 60GB which has since been updated to 80GB)

P30 seems to be a really good price for the value considering the $199 upfront cost can be negated with the Sonos One Smartspeaker!

  • P30 RRP $1099

  • P30 Pro RRP $1599

Comparison… keeping in mind, these phones just got announced today.

P30 : $65 x 24 months = $1560 + $199 (Handset upfront fees) = $1759 - $230 (Generous Sonos One
value) = $1529 over 24 months = $63.70 with 80GB data and unlimited calls on Telstra network.

Optus charge $95 for their S10 with 50GB of data (plus unlimited international calls to 35 countries)

P30 Pro : $65 x 24 months = $1560 + $699 (Handset upfront fees) = $2259 - $230 = $2029 over 24 months = $84.50 with with 80GB data and unlimited calls on Telstra network.

Optus charge $105 for their S10+ with 50GB of data (plus unlimited international calls to 35 countries)

Claiming TRS will make the overall cost still cheaper.

And Optus are yet to announce their prices for the Huawei phones.

    So let me get this straight, you pay $699 upfront and then switch to the $65 plan essentially making your plan $94 p/month. Is that what they're asking for?

        Here is a comparison… keeping in mind, these phones just got announced today

        P30 : $65 x 24 months = $1560 + $199 (Handset upfront fees) = $1759 - $230 (Generous Sonos One

        Optus charge $95 for their S10 with 50GB of data (plus unlimited international calls to 35 countries)

        P30 Pro : $65 x 24 months = $1560 + $699 (Handset upfront fees) = $2259 - $230 = $2029 over 24 months = $84.50 with with 60GB data and unlimited calls on Telstra network.

        Optus charge $105 for their S10+ with 50GB of data (plus unlimited international calls to 35 countries)

        Even a HN 10% discount doesnt bring the prices closer.

        I have already highlighted that the P30 is good value for this price!

          Thanks for posting the deal.

          Huawei's phones on Optus network is usually cheaper though.

          When Mate 20 / Mate 20 Pro was launched, you only need to pay $85/month for 50GB of data. RRP of Mate 20 Pro was $1,599.

          For people who don't mind Optus, it might be worth waiting for Optus' plan.

          Not many people mention this, but it's often really good value to trade in an old phone to samsung for the S10, then go on a cheap 12 month sim only deal. Example, I can get $280 for my S8, brings the S10+ down to 1200, which over 24 months is $50 per month, then jump on the optus 12 month sim only plan for $41.30, you are spending <$91 a month over 2 years without taking into account TRS which you can claim on the phone which can bring it down to $75ish a month over 2 years. Also consider S10 pre orders came with galaxy buds worth $250.

          At these prices it is sometimes better to buy the phone outright and go on sim only plans.

            +1

            @onlinepred: Of course…. thinking like a true Ozbargainer :)

            You can still claim TRS on these phones too. From past posts, I have read that the Tax invoice shows the original value with GST!

            So the prices I have highlighted will go down further.

            • onlinepred on 27/03/2019 - 10:08

              @aspirepranesh: Yes true but it will be on the reduced value so not as big as of savings. You would be looking at maybe $6.25 a month in reduction, so around $78 a month, while S10+ pre order value would have been closer to $65 if you sold the headphones for $75 keeping headphones.

              • aspirepranesh on 27/03/2019 - 10:14
                +2

                @onlinepred: Going off your calculations:

                S10+ : $1200/24 months = $50 per month + $41.30 Plan = $91.30

                TRS = $150 /24 = $6.25 discount

                Making the plan $85/Month for the S10+ without considering value of the galaxy buds.

                P30 Pro : $65 x 24 months = $1560 + $699 (Handset upfront fees) = $2259 - $150 (TRS) = $87.8.Month without considering the value of Sonos One!

                You're paying $3 more per month for the P30 Pro. Also, Sonos One value is higher than Galaxy Buds, we can agree :)

                Correct me if I am wrong

                  @aspirepranesh: Yep spot on, the only benefits between each is the 12 month optus sim only plan is only 12 months which leaves you open to better deals in the future, the telstra plan has 10gb more data (50gb vs 60gb), that's about it really. Can't go wrong either way.

        • geminiseven on 15/04/2019 - 06:58

          Do you think that JB Hifi will continue this deal with other phones over the rest of the year?

          I don't particularly want the P30… and don't particularly need a new phone at the moment but I am interested in a new phone plan, and it would be a pretty good deal if I were to sell the phone and the Sonos One speaker, and then I can just put the $1100 towards whatever phone I buy next.

          I haven't seen JB Hifi do a deal this good since the Black Friday deals last year where they were selling the Samsung S9+ and the Google Pixel 3 for $300 when you port across and sign up for the $65 plan.

          It's very hard to predict what will be ahead for the year.. trying to decide whether I should go for this deal for the sheer good value, or wait until later in the year.

          Going off the deals they've done so far… it's possible they may do a similar deal when Samsung releases the new Note 10 later in the year… they may have some promotion on the S10 and S10+ over Black Friday and at the start of next year before Samsung releases it's next Galaxy S phone.

    • aspirepranesh on 27/03/2019 - 09:57

      take into account atleast $240 value for the Sonos One, which is about a $10 discount. making it roughly $84 per month.

  • optusprime on 27/03/2019 - 09:28

    • aspirepranesh on 27/03/2019 - 10:04

      I had the exact same thought. They arent giving a $500 credit as they normally do with their 12M sim only plan, more of a $900 credit for the P30 pro (maybe coz its a 24M contract), which is great!

      • scuderiarmani on 27/03/2019 - 10:05

        Yeah I'm thinking that too, seems very good on face value. Haven't really looked at the phone before, but seems a good deal.

    P30 is a very impressive phone and that $1,099 RRP will hold for about 30 seconds until it drops to closer to $700.

    Looks like a good competitor to the S10e but shame it doesn't have wireless charging and uses proprietary memory cards (I thought we all learned not to do that after Sony's repeated attempts to force Memory Sticks, and later PSVita memory cards on everyone?)

    • aspirepranesh on 27/03/2019 - 11:31

      Mate 20 is still selling for around $900/P20 Pro is still holding value over $700.

      Good luck expecting P30 to drop to $700 in 30 seconds or 2 months.

      Maybe on Gumtree you can lowball your way to $700 later this year.

      But I will agree with you on the Memory card factor!

        I have seen plenty of Mate 20 Pros up for sale on Gumtree for $800 and it uses the same CPU as the P30 and P30 Pro. What does the P30 and P30 Pro really offer over the Mate 20 Pro?

          Last December I got the P20 Pro for $0 on a $55 plan ($65 plan with $10 port-in credit). I got a receipt for the phone, showing $999, paid with gift cards. I claimed TRS without issues. But if it is above $1,000, it MUST have the name of the claimant on it.

          Side note, though: Telstra's network is quite good (brilliant bandwidth, coverage similar to Optus for me), but their customer service is unbelievably bad. When overseas, I get charged a few cents per day for data roaming even though data is off. Their suggestion: turn off roaming altogether. And they are unable to disable my voicemail; each time they try, they enable "international day pass" instead. They are useless.

                PS: The total score for both front and back camera, Samsung is better than Huawei, How could u miss this from DXO review?

                  @scratchback: I didn't vote you down but seems like I'm not the only one who disagrees.

                  Any source on P30 pro using BOE or any recent Mate 20 pro having green tint issue? All I know was Huawei Australia finally acknowledged the issue and were replacing phones.

                  Your statement saying Huawei sent the non green issue for review implies that they know how to make a non defective screen?

                  Samsung does have much better selfie camera according to DxO so I guess go with Samsung if selfie is more important to you

                    @noone: P30 pro is using BOE, which is officially confirmed by Huawei.
                    Replacing phones only means not all the phones have the green issue otherwise why need replacement? If you search YouTube, there’re videos in Jan/feb about the green tint issue with 2019 Huawei mate20 pro batches, which are using BOE(info from the setting).
                    The green issue is detectable easily by a normal user in a short time, of course Huawei could detect it much easier and quicker. But it does not mean they can fix it. A lot of disease can be diagnosed but can’t be healed, this applies to Huawei 2. Seems you have a very poor common sense and made a very ridiculous point.
                    I am talking about the total score of a camera from your trustable resource. No need to distort it. Samgsung has a better total score than Huawei, period.
                    Ps: Vote me down? I won’t be surprised about that. Huawei hires most bots in the world. How much do they pay u?

                      @scratchback: I've been asking for sources on that but all I see is your rambling.

                      I guess there's no credible source on your claim?

                      Regarding the scores, they are different facing cameras, why would you total them up? lol

                        @noone: It’s not released yet so there’s no review. It’s common sense as it’s a known issue and huawei never fixed it.
                        R u buying a phone or a camera? Lol.

          p30 pro night mode blows s10 out of the water, it even gets to the level of some popular digital cameras, e.g. sony rx100. plus much better battery life.

            @angilinwago: Battery life?Huawei dares not to say that, how dare u? BOE has very serious battery consuming issue when phone is not being used.
            Also s10 has better overall camera score, do u understand overall?
            Also the processor I s same as mate 20 pro, which is slower than a lot of phones.

              @scratchback: lol dont get personal mate its just a phone and it's not your sole purpose of life here on earth. Huawei makes good phone with nice cameras, Samsung is not bad either. Go with the one you like and you dont have to flame other brands.

              • scratchback on 01/04/2019 - 20:41

                @arctan: I am mocking up what Huawei is doing for fun. Did u c Samsung or apple diss the others?

  • couger on 27/03/2019 - 17:00

    Wish The p30 pro will be $55 per month for 24 month around christmas like the p20 pro.

    who's waiting for mate 20 pro to be on $55 plan with no upfront cost?

    • [Deactivated] on 01/04/2019 - 22:07

      You should have tried talking to optus chat. They had 3 Xl and Mate 20 Pro for $59 pm and 30gb.

  • FW190 on 29/03/2019 - 22:47

    P30 RRP $1099
    P30 Pro RRP $1599

    bloody hell……… maybe I haven't been keeping up, but I thought the whole reason for buying Chinese brand phones is that they are substantially cheaper than the iPhones and Samsungs, but with similar spec.

    Or is Huawei consider to be on-par with the big boys now?

      Used Samsung/Iphone before, and now I'm on Huawei P20 Pro. Will never switch back again. That's the second phone I had in 20 years which I dont want to switch after 1 year - the first is Nokia 8310.

      After 1 yr of use, the battery is still as new and no lag at all.

      On par? No, much better

  • Xeonelite on 30/03/2019 - 17:54

    You can bring this down to $55 a month as well by talking to Telstra live chat. Say you've ported in from another carrier and they will apply a $10 discount. Just did this for my partner. :)

    • sirspiff on 31/03/2019 - 01:15

      Did u do this after signing up at jb?

      • Xeonelite on 31/03/2019 - 16:33

        Yes I did.

        • db2k on 31/03/2019 - 19:27

          How is this possible? You have signed up for $65 per month at JBHIFI for 24 months and then chat with Telstra for and advise of "XXXX offer which wasn't applied at JBHIFI"?

          I went to a JBHIFI store and they brought up a list of eligible vs ineligible offers (from their intranet sharepoint site), and the $10 was showing up as ineligible in that list …

          Any advice appreciated.

          • yummypinacolada on 01/04/2019 - 22:34

            @db2k: From my experienced with Telstra, I believe that it is possible to have discount even after you sign up if you get to talk to the right rep. I was on the $69 plan, and I can haggle to get 2 times $10 discount which brings my plan to $49 p/m. I did this after talking to 5 chat rep who all said that they can't do it because the system won't allow them to or their supervisor doesn't allow it, except the last one who was kind enough to give the discount to me.

            As long as you have the right reason and you think that your offered price make sense everything is possible.

            • db2k on 01/04/2019 - 23:16

              @yummypinacolada: Your experience is the exception/minority, and not the common case for everyone/majority …

              IMO i believe it's not accurate to place a blanket claim that a cost can be $10, $20, $X lower (implied for everyone) based on an individual's experience.

              Will take it all back if the next 100+ people claim it's possible based on their own experiences, to decrease the cost of a contract after signing and executing that contract. LOL.

              • yummypinacolada on 01/04/2019 - 23:46

                @db2k: You might be right, my statement is based on my experience and some other people I know.
