JB have this nostalgic folding screen mobile for the cheapest price I've seen.
Also, you can redeem the code from the box for Motorola VerveBuds earbuds until October 31. Redeem Link
There are probably higher spec mobiles for the money as is only 4G, 128GB memory, Snapdragon 710, 2510mAh battery, and only two cameras (also nostalgic). The price is mostly due to the 6.2" 2142x876px foldable pOLED screen, small size, and the satisfaction of snapping the thing shut.
Officeworks has this for $1997 but are out of stock. They also won't officially match prices with codes so price beat probably isn't worth the wait.

Edit: this is the 4G version. A 5G version exists with better specs too
Like you suggest, it’s a lot of money to pay for a nice screen and nostalgia.
