Hi I assume everyone knows what an iPhone XR is … if anyone has any Concierge credit it might be worth trying on it, seems to occasionally work on Apple Clearance items.

64GB Black $699.00:

128GB Black $777.00:

128GB White $777.00:
https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/apple-iphone-xr-128gb-white-m…

Details from Good Guys website:
iPhone XR features a 6.1-inch Liquid Retina display(1). Six stunning colours. Advanced Face ID lets you securely unlock your iPhone and log in to apps with just a glance. The A12 Bionic chip uses real-time machine learning to transform the way you experience photos, gaming, augmented reality (AR) and more. A 12-megapixel camera system with Portrait mode, Portrait Lighting, enhanced bokeh and Depth Control for studio-quality portraits. And a water-resistant design(2). (1) The display has rounded corners. When measured as a rectangle, the iPhone XR screen is 6.06 inches diagonally. Actual viewable area is less. (2) iPhone XR is splash-, water- and dust-resistant, and was tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP67 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 1 metre for up to 30 minutes). Splash, water and dust resistance are not permanent conditions, and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone

    I don't think it's on clearance, quite the opposite.

    Apple is still making them and dropped the price a couple months back. Around October-November I tried buying one of these, but only apple was selling it at the new discounted price (and had it in stock).

    Now they seem to be appearing at a lot more retailers, e.g. JB HI FI who are selling it at the same price

      Latest version: No longer ships with EarPods and power adapter

      You are right, stated on jb page

      • NeverMissABargain on 09/01/2021 - 14:24

        The one I bought recently from jb hifi did arrive with earpods and an adapter.

        • hopper on 09/01/2021 - 14:25

          Means you got old stock?

  • 4892 on 09/01/2021 - 03:48

    $849 for 64GB is the cheapest from apples website. Could be a similar situation as the HomePod last year.

  • LittleTicket on 09/01/2021 - 07:34

    F$&k! $2 cheaper than JB. Gotta crack our the price protection now.

    • Fabio08 on 09/01/2021 - 07:50

      JB sold out all of their old stock, including the crap colours, then somehow found more stock.

  • julz15 on 09/01/2021 - 07:54

    Is this the new stock without earpods and charger?

    Edit - from tech specs looks like new stock…

    • Fabio08 on 09/01/2021 - 07:56

      What’s the actual difference other than what is in the box?

      • julz15 on 09/01/2021 - 08:06
        +1

        Nothing. Just having a charger might be handy if you don't have one already

    • Jabba the Hutt on 09/01/2021 - 10:43
      +3

      JB one received a couple of weeks ago came with earpods and charger, although they've since added a notice that says "Latest version: No longer ships with EarPods and power adapter". Maybe it'd be luck of the draw though.

      • julz15 on 09/01/2021 - 11:13

        Yeh i think JB were clearing their old stock. All colours back in stock at JB with the no earpods and adapter message.

  • CheapandUsed on 09/01/2021 - 08:32

    Looks to be still $849 at Officeworks still. Possible price beat could bring the 64GB to $664.

    Edit: hardly any stock in officeworks though so unlikely.

    • netsurfer on 09/01/2021 - 11:37

      Looks like OW matched the price to avoid price match.

  • sillyhead on 09/01/2021 - 10:00

    This seems like the cheapest way to get an apple device that performs comparable though slightly below an iPhone 11. Pretty good really.

    Yes I know what an Iphone XR is - another overpriced piece of junk from an evil company.

    • buddysayshi on 09/01/2021 - 11:17

      If it’s junk then why are people buying iPhones in millions all over the world? No body is forcing them to buy iPhones. There are various alternatives to iPhones.

      • CheapOjoe on 09/01/2021 - 11:21
        +2

        It's not junk. But it's overrated that's for sure. Millions of people buy things they shouldn't all the time it does not make it a better product.

        • buddysayshi on 09/01/2021 - 13:05
          +1

          A better product is subjective to people’s thought and what they see as value. iPhones last much longer compared to Androids support wise and hence it pays off in the long run if hold for a few years.

      Apple devices have high quality components that last but iOS is lagging behind Android

      • Lets Make Sandwiches on 10/01/2021 - 16:22

        Yep high quality components. Is that why they throttled the cpu without our authorisation on the iPhone 6, lied about it, then offered a free battery - only to discover that when you took your iPhone 6 with high quality compenents to the store to get replaced, they tell you it is bent (lol) and that they can't replace it - even if you offered to waive your right to warranty. Of course they were quite happy to send it away for $99 so that their "tech", who was just going to take your money and say he couldn't fix it, could say it was bent and there's nothing they could do.

        Absolute crooks these people are. What about my mac air that has a broken up button…… Of course it can't be replaced like any other brand could. You have the buy a whole new keyboard for like 600 bucks.

    • Buy2Much on 09/01/2021 - 12:00

      @lemmstar Can you name one company making these types of products that's not evil by your standard?

      • 4agte on 09/01/2021 - 12:05

        Google 'Don't Be Evil' 🤣

        • sfac on 09/01/2021 - 12:24

          Google is a company that makes hardware junks.

      • squidz on 10/01/2021 - 01:14

        tesla.. their product is not evil as it helps to reduce carbon foot print n they arent made in china…
        however, their shares are overpriced piece of junk cause it's overpriced n its a piece of paper :D :D

        • some_one_some_where on 16/01/2021 - 09:53

          Tesla has a factory in China. So how are their parts not made in China?

  • Krazyy on 09/01/2021 - 12:45

    Please correct me if I am wrong.. but an iphone X is still far superior?

    • yummycoot on 09/01/2021 - 23:43

      yeah, think of the XR as lite version of the X

      • Butt Scratcher on 10/01/2021 - 14:48
        +1

        Not quite, the XR came out the following year. The XR has a better processor, better camera, larger screen. About the only thing the X has better is an OLED screen as opposed to the ips on the XR

  • gviddy on 09/01/2021 - 13:00

    Macgregor Store has some in stock, however I am in Brisbane lock down. :(

  • Ozb101 on 09/01/2021 - 13:59

    How does the XR compare to the iPhone7 Plus.

    Main usage will be the basics like FB, taking photos/video, calls, messaging etc

    Or should I wait for iPhone 11 prices to drop

    • Freestyle on 09/01/2021 - 14:05

      better to wait for iPhone 11 prices to drop imo, XR are the budget models, has weaker camera, screen and battery

      • julz15 on 09/01/2021 - 14:09

        I believe screen on 11 and XR is the same.

        • Freestyle on 09/01/2021 - 14:24

          i see i thought it was different guess thats on pro

      • Butt Scratcher on 09/01/2021 - 14:11
        +1

        If you consider the XR a budget model, then the iPhone 11 would be next gen's budget model. They've just decided to change the naming scheme the gen after, but they are the equivalent.

        They even use same display

        • Fabio08 on 09/01/2021 - 14:21
          +4

          I have an 11 and my wife has an XR. We both use our phones fairly heavily, and there is next to no noticeable difference between the two. My wife is due for an upgrade in the next month and is going to skip it, the XR still holds it own completely. If you wait for the 11 to drop to this price, you’ll then be asking whether you should wait until the 12 drops, etc. This is a great price and I’ve bought two for my parents.

          • Butt Scratcher on 09/01/2021 - 15:07
            +2

            @Fabio08: I'm not saying you shouldn't buy the XR or the 11. Just pointing out that you can't really differentiate those two by labelling one as a budget model, and saying the other isn't. Since they are direct iterations of one and the other.

            I probably would've gotten my parents an XR as well at this price. But when I was looking for an XR, only apple had it in stock and it was 850. Whilst JB HI FI was selling the 11 for 890. The $40 difference seemed justified for me at the time

            • Fabio08 on 09/01/2021 - 15:43
              +2

              @Butt Scratcher: Yeah for $40 it’s a no brainer. I do think the step up from an iPhone 7 to an XR will feel just as big as a step to an 11. The XR at this price is quality, even as an 11 owner I can’t endorse it enough.

  • fez on 09/01/2021 - 15:16

    I’m still using iPhone X
    It’s been great

  • daven1985 on 09/01/2021 - 16:03

    Still a great phone if you need one. I brought a second hand one last week and only issue is I may have to replace the battery since it is at 88% health. But still goes strong.

  • [Deactivated] on 09/01/2021 - 17:13

    Better than the SE second gen.?

    • Fabio08 on 09/01/2021 - 17:38

      I am sure someone will come in and start getting technical RE processor speeds, etc however for the average user, they will be almost identical to each other in real life performance except the XR will have a bigger screen and battery.

      • [Deactivated] on 09/01/2021 - 17:57
        +1

        Thanks mate, that’s all I needed.
        Will be for someone who’s definitely not going to notice specs difference so XR would be better because of battery & screen.

  • Champ888 on 09/01/2021 - 20:20

    I’ve got an iPad like most and used to have the original SE but, usually being an android phone person, never been a true Apple believer. However with my fascination with tinkering/troubleshooting well behind, this time I wanted something that would JUST WORK! I bought JB’s 128gig XR deal and am very happy with it.

    not a gamer phone, pass.

  • cbrbargain on 13/01/2021 - 12:35

    I tried to price match with Officeworks, but they are telling me the model numbers are different and refused. Both are iphone XR 128 GB in black. Good guys is MH7L3X/A (specs say dual sim, nano and e-sim) and Officeworks is MRY92X/A (specs say single sim, 2GB RAM, I think current XR has 3GB RAM). Is the Officeworks one the old model that comes with earpods and charger? If so it might be worth going with that one even without a price match.

    • ZeeFlyingMonkey on 13/01/2021 - 12:39

      Depends they may just have the old details in the system and if they order it in you end up with one without the charger and headphones …

  • lovepub on 15/01/2021 - 19:32

    If I manage to get 5% off goodguys gift card to buy these, would it be the best price that can be achieved?
    Should be cheaper than officeworks even if they beat it by 5%.

    Plus someone said OW wont beat it due to diff model number …

    Wondering if anyone bought this cheaper than the price tag plus extra 5% off by paying with discounted gift card
