    How much for unlocking phone?

  • he88388 on 21/07/2021 - 16:02

    It would be great if we can pay to unlock using EBay

      I haven’t found a way to unlock without Optus.
      Note the locked phone supports Optus MVNO networks like Amaysim.

  • Store RepCellmate @ Cellmate on 21/07/2021 - 16:04

    Hello

    For any unlocking queries please contact Optus as we do not unlock handsets.

    Kind Regards

    Reg UNLOCKING …

    Took this from the Optus site:

    "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"

    Most (maybe all) optus prepaid phones aren't locked, just try their unlock site with the phones serial and if it says not locked then chat to them to get the free code.

    • ilovefullprice on 21/07/2021 - 17:16

      This is a good tip to know!

    • Lysander on 21/07/2021 - 18:52

      Do you know the link for the unlock site?

    • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 08:54

      "OzTechGuy" Not my experience as well as many others on here.

      Maybe you got lucky with a few of yours.

      How old were the phones you got unlocked for free?

      • OZTechGuy on 22/07/2021 - 10:49

        As recent as early this year

        • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 10:51

          Just on one phone? If so what model as often age dependent ?

          • OZTechGuy on 22/07/2021 - 10:53
            +1

            @ozhunter68: As recent as early this year for an Oppo A72 and did one roughly every year for last few years (for family/ friends). If the unlock page says its unlocked then Optus has to share the code, you have proof of purchase its yours anyway.

            • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 11:01

              @OZTechGuy: Thanks. My last attempt was a while ago now.

              I thought if phone is comming up as unlocked you don't need to enter code or anything else?

              Oppo A72 not old, so did well there. Maybe a change of policy with more expensive prepaid models?

              • OZTechGuy on 22/07/2021 - 11:59
                +1

                @ozhunter68: No worries.

                Place a non-optus sim and check if it asks for unlock code.

                Possibly. Ive even did it on cheap optus specific branded ones too.

                • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 12:04

                  @OZTechGuy: Cheers. Have many years experience with prepaid phones with mixed results getting unlocked and

                  having the bands 3G/4G needed for other AU carriers. Pretty much over buying prepaid for a few years now,

                  but this C3 is great value phone if easy cheap unlock is possible.

  • bgazer on 22/07/2021 - 01:44

    What's the expiry date on the included sim?

  • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 09:10

    Did this phone get the Android 11 update ? Is it still geting security updates ? If so what month is it updated to ?

    • thsydney on 22/07/2021 - 10:55

      at the moment realme C3, RMX2020 has Andriod 10 with security patch June 2021

      • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 10:57

        Thanks. Might not get 11 but then again does not have risk of getting slowed down with OS update like some other phones. Security update for June is great.

  • coolsteps on 22/07/2021 - 13:38

    great phone but pity it hasn't got android 11 update as of yet.

    • ilovefullprice on 22/07/2021 - 14:44

      If the phone doesn’t have Android 11 update, does that mean it will not be compatible with Android 11?

      • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 14:53
        +1

        No. Just means it's currently only running A10 and not updated yet, or often will not get the update model dependant.

        Phone and Apps will work fine for many more years yet.

        • ilovefullprice on 22/07/2021 - 14:58

          Do you know once a new Android phone is released, roughly how many years it will be able to get the latest Android OS update until it won’t be able to get the latest Android OS update anymore?

          • ozhunter68 on 22/07/2021 - 15:09
            +1

            @ilovefullprice: That is not a simple question. That depends on phone manufacturer, how cheap/expensive the model is,

            carrier if prepaid or has scin, as well as whether the phone a Google Pixel or is part of the Android One Program

            such as Nokia's who generally are garaunteed to get OS updates for around 24 months and 36 for security.

            It does also depend on the phones hardware if it can still run given OS, but mainly with aftermarket versions of

            OS few years down the track.

            With the entry level below $200 phones often you get zero major OS updates, one if your lucky.

            Midrange Phones maybe one OS update, and flagships used to be 1-2 but with LG now out most current flagship

            phones above RRP$1000 from major brands would get 2 OS and longer for security from release date usually.

              @ozhunter68: Ok great many thanks!

                @ilovefullprice: When you have your eye on a particular model, just do some searching on net to see if/when

                it's likely to get supported to. Same applies to Google Chromebooks, can look that up beforehand.

                • ilovefullprice on 22/07/2021 - 15:28

                  @ozhunter68: But when I look at the specs, most only say what the current Android OS version is on the phone. The specs doesn’t say what Android OS version the phone will be able to support to

                    @ilovefullprice: You need to spend time on google reading more than three articles/reviews if availale, and better still on forums and Android Update Sites. Also go on track record for the said brand and range such as Motorola these days is known for being slow and not updating their devices below +-$300.
