PICKUP15

I recently noticed the PICKUP15 promo code and decided to go on a little bit of a hunt just for fun. While I don't usually advocate buying phones in Australia considering what is available with a bit of digging, this seemed like some pretty good value if you want an Australian delivered phone!

The Oppo AX5S: (Specs are from a certain comparison site)
86352 Antutu
3GB ram
64GB storage
4230mah battery
6.2" HD screen (720 x 1520 px)
MediaTek Helio P35 MT6765 (4×Cortex A53 2.3GHz+4×Cortex A53 1.8GHz)
PowerVR GE8320 GPU
Android 8.1-ish…
OPTUS VERIFIED:
3G Network Band 1/2/4/8
4G Network FDD-LTE: Bands 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/18/19/20/26/28 TD-LTE: Bands 38/39/40/41

The price listed on the Woolworths site is $199 vs $249 from other retailers. I may be slightly off in how it's calculated but it SHOULD be in the region of $166 TOTAL.

  1. Go to shopback and buy your Woolworth's gift card at 5% off https://www.shopback.com.au/woolworths-gift-cards
  2. Wait…
  3. Go to the Woolworths site https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/870290, order the phone, enter the promo code PICKUP15 and pay using your gift card.
  4. Be eligible for a 4c off fuel voucher and approximately 550 woolworths reward points meaning you'll 'earn' about $3 worth of points by buying this phone.
  5. Enjoy your phone, while nothing truly special it should be pretty darn good for the price!

The phone SHOULD come out in the region of $172 all things considered.

(I'm fully expecting to have bricks thrown at my head, this deal was posted on a complete lack of sleep)

    Are you eligible for 2.5% Shopback considering you are paying by eGiftCard?

    • Associatedkronicmacstigator @ Woolworths on 21/11/2019 - 23:56

      Crap… you're right!

  • urahara on 21/11/2019 - 23:57

    Can this be unlocked ?

    • StevieRay on 21/11/2019 - 23:58

      Are there phones that cannot be unlocked (for a price)?

      • Associatedkronicmacstigator @ Woolworths on 21/11/2019 - 23:59

        Probably, but I doubt Optus would sell those

      Have you recharged your service to a minimum / accumulated amount of $80.00?

      Yes: There is no fee to network unlock your handset
      No: How long has your service been active?
      Less than 6 months: There is an $80 fee
      More than 6 months: There is a $25 fee

      Yes but it does not have the 3G 850 MHz band, so Telstra 3G calling won't work.

        Your point being?

        • twister292 on 22/11/2019 - 05:20

          Point being that potential buyers should be aware that it's not a good device if the intention is to unlock it and use it with Telstra

  • StevieRay on 22/11/2019 - 00:01

    Considering you are associated, what's the staff discount like these days? Ie on this item?

    :)

      I have NFI!

      I'm just a contractor who moves their s**t! I take an item they sell, put it in my van and transport it to another place where I then give it to their customer (and usually their addict). The only benefit I get is sometimes I can wander around the back storage area.

      I get paid pretty well for it though!

        Have a upvote for being so honest and upfront.

    Also, if you activate and recharge $30+ on the Epic Data prepaid plan (35GB, 28 days) you'll be eligible for a free fitness watch, plus two free recharges…

    Isn't the A20 comparable? Both released April 2019, but as low as $150.

    https://gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=9626&idPhone2=964…

    Samsung A20 has lower GHz (1.6 < 2.3 GHz), but more powerful (cortex A73 >> A53).

    • Associatedkronicmacstigator @ Woolworths on 22/11/2019 - 09:18

      Definitely, but I couldn't find it listed on the actual store website

      • [Deactivated] on 22/11/2019 - 10:19

        What's the best price on a S20 at the moment?

        • Associatedkronicmacstigator @ Woolworths on 22/11/2019 - 10:32

          No idea

        • [Deactivated] on 22/11/2019 - 10:51

          I meant a20.

          A20 is for Vodafone and Telstra.

          The Oppo is for Optus.

          Can't really compare prices can you? Apples Vs oranges.

          • JerryB on 22/11/2019 - 19:21

            @[Deactivated]: Let's not bring Apple into this too. And Orange Mobile hasn't been a thing here for years.

          • [Deactivated] on 22/11/2019 - 11:30

            @bargainparker: Thanks. I saw that, but I need an Optus phone. How much is it to unlock?

    • [Deactivated] on 22/11/2019 - 10:36

      @yow: the question was to you.

  • twister292 on 22/11/2019 - 05:20

    Oppo's UI is utter rubbish.

    • [Deactivated] on 22/11/2019 - 06:57

      No

  • Neoika on 22/11/2019 - 06:50

    It is at $199 in Coles, Big W somtimes.

  • b-radicool on 22/11/2019 - 10:01

    This or the Samsung A20?

  • SupeNintendoChalmers on 22/11/2019 - 11:51

    The Oppo phone has a better processor, more internal storage.

    The Samsung has a larger screen, NFC and (probably) better availability of accessories.
