All time low for the Motorola G54:
I learnt from Richard ;)
Don't be giving away my secrets 😛.
Not a secret anymore. Lol
How quick were your fingers? Was about to submit this and saw your post
I’m actually quicker than him but I let him post instead 🤭
@I Smell Pennies: Lol I've yet to learn the art of quick posts
@I Smell Pennies: For the life of me I can't understand why there's a fight for who can get in first.
I have been here for 12 years and still don't understand.
@maverickjohn: Anything I say about BG is an internal joke between us, but yes some people do really fight to be the first poster lollll.
There’s a reason why I don’t bother, just look at my post history 😂
@I Smell Pennies: Nahhhh I get to you and BG have a long history , wasn't having a dig.. but I actually don't understand, anyway the community wins. I'll only post the obscure ones something no one wants to fight for lol
@maverickjohn: its all in good fun.
Unless you are dealbot.
That guy actually cried if you posted his deal first, like you could bloody call dibs on deals.
@dbmitch: I was wondering where is Dealbot and realised he is now "Taegukgi"
Just read this. Don't know Lysander as I wasn't active on this site then
@trixieb: Well, I guess to replace Lysander one has to have Lysander-esqe qualities to show eventually.
The bot got out with just a name change, unlike Lysander who is straight up banned.
@maverickjohn: in case it has referrals ?
@garage sale: Nahhhh referrals are forbidden here. So wouldn't be that.. anyway I won't understand but as long as it's civil
@shxhshzhz I was expecting you to post this deal lol
me too but I'm not crazy enough about posting deals to post in seconds 😂
@shxhshzhz: I've just learnt the trick is to post a few words only, not lengthy posts. I wasted time on details lol
@trixieb: yeah I always make my specs list for phone posts takes some time
@trixieb: Dw at least we're not a jobless as BG ;)
@I Smell Pennies: Ehh did you mean yourself 😏
I’m employed and OzBargain is my second job xx
@BargainsGrabber: I have a job now sir
We need a 50%-OFF for Moto-G84.
Currently $449 @JB
Under $300 several times last month
Thanks & noticed it…for me to buy, I need it to be around $200 ish.
Tomorrow
JB PERKS After Hours Sale Is On Now
Thanks
You beat me to this!
Great deal for the G54. And I thought $179 from Big W was cheap already.
Mines still unopened, wonder if could return
90 day returns https://www.bigw.com.au/help/returns
Can’t find 179 in bigw
Believe that was probably a deal posted a few months back.
This.
The Big W deal expired already.
ooh boy that is quite a bargain. Only prob with the phone is the camera; in particular, the selfie cam pics look like they're from the 90s lol.
$149.
Plus GCam.
GCam did not help much on mine : /
I'm not sure why you're talking like a valley girl?
Anyway, i don't think the phone being cheap should excuse that, every Redmi i've owned has had a much, much better camera for similar pricing; i am merely pointing out a notable weakness of the phone for peoples' info.
Yeah, the camera didn't impress me… but it's a cheap phone with esim… grab a travel esim and this is good to use as a hotspot when traveling..
For this price with 2 years warranty. I think you can put up with a crap camera. Even I want to buy it as a spare or backup phone
Camera has no wide angle just in case
Cheapest 120hz phone on the planet right now?
I bought one, I am not sure why.
I don't need this phone but suffering FOMO at this price
I installed Instagram on my secondary phone, a Galaxy A32 (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/716798), today. It felt laggy, I suppose this would be better for late night doom scrolling.
Laggy phone discourages phone usage (bad habit), brilliant.
It's the Ozbargain effect. Once you are in you can't get out.
I missed out. Would you consider gifting your? Actually gifting is the best merit for you :)
Make me want to buy another one (already own one).
Do you think this is good for 70+ people (i.e. mom & dad) ?
I actually gave my 85 year old Dad one on the weekend! He seems to be able to use it all fine so i dont see why not?
15 years of difference can mean a lot
Gave my dad one for Xmas he hasn't had an issue with it. Turn off 5G to save battery and it's a great 2-3 day phone for his usage.
Via network settings?
70 or more people could technically use it but the rostering alone would be a nightmare, even if nobody fought over who's turn it is
Negged for spelling mum incorrectly
just what I was waiting for!
Love it when things line up. Thanks OP!
Do these come with a case in the box?
Yeah, it's a clear square one.
I need a phone with Android 13. I can't see where it specifies which version this has. Does anyone know?
Hmm, I wonder what 'planned upgrade to Android 14' means.
it means there is a planned upgrade to 14
Apparently just got Android 14 and expected to get 15 too https://www.androidupdatetracker.com/p/motorola-moto-g54
@MiscOzB: Oh, that's disappointing. I need it for an app that controls my insulin pump and the app is only stable up to Android 13.
@CatBiscuit: dont update your phone
@abs898: That's the plan. I'm just trying to be sure of the version it ships with.
@CatBiscuit: You can always manually downgrade it by flashing.
@abs898: I didn't think of that. I bought one and it will arrive today. Fingers crossed for 13.
@CatBiscuit: Mine came with Android 13
@abs898: That's great. Thanks for that.
Can this emulate ps2 games?
Only personally have tested one single GameCube game just to see, so it's far from a definitive answer, but it can play Simpsons Road Rage full speed on default settings for GC.
Going off that, you should at the very least find a good deal of playable games.
Yeah, but not necessarily at anything higher than their native resolution.
Thanks OP. Got one and paid extra for Uber delivery, I didn't know they do parcel delivery now other than food! 😁
Why does it say $299 for me? What am I missing?
logging in? You need to be a Perks member also.
Thanks. Figured it out
Price is $299? How to get it for 149?
Login as a Perks member.
Yeah disregard my comment. Thanks
Great value, I got it for 189 few month ago
serious? i bought the TCL 30+ $99 this morning!!!
You just need to buy another one to make things even
Where you bought it from?
:-( total crap phone and operating system, its has brutal power management and even closes messaging apps… you will feel no one loves you… then 200 messages 8 hours later.. return it if you can and get this phone
Can anyone give feedback on the camera quality? I bought a Motorola fusion 20 on a similar deal 2 years ago and the main camera is really poor. Even though the specs state it's good, it's super blurry and doesn't stabilise well at all.. thanks for any feedback and opinions on this model
It's not great. It is 100% the weakest part of the phone, i made a comment above on this point.
generally, the Edge series phones are better than the cheap G series models. However, your phone might have problems as no modern phone should be blurry unless it's a supermarket phone.
Does it support gcam? Can you find a supported package?
Yeah i installed a gcam version on mine. It didn't help much at all, though.
@Iggemo: Hi which one is compatible? Well of course this is physical limit….
@neonlight: I went to this site:
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/
and BSG mod. But maybe another one will work better? Not sure. You could try a few and see what's best i guess but wouldnt expect miracles.
@Iggemo: Cool thanks will check that out. I wonder how you guys know which is compatible.
@neonlight: pure trial and error buddy
I would rate it as a $149 camera
it’s unusable unless its bright light, with new software update the cam clicks like ‘beauty mode’. In short it’s garbage camera.
Cant checkout! OOS?
I was doing the ten words, and you are copy the title. You are smart.
