Hi all, I'm a mobile enthusiast from Melbourne and nowadays into Foldable phones. I have used Samsung Fold5 and realised Fold6 may not be the best upgrades considering it didn't have many updates which I value.

I am trying to find out the best ways or suppliers to purchase phones like Honor V3 or Vivo X Fols3 pro or even Oppo Find N3/Oneplus Open. My key criteria is to have some level of backup in case of physical damage. I have opted for Samsung all these years for having Samsung Care+ in case something unexpected happens.

Need recommendations of site which also have options of adding Damage Protection/Insurance.

Thank you.

    Oppo Find N3

    What's the expected land cost of an imported oppo find n3 now these days?

    I was seriously considering jumping ship from iphone 14 pro to this deal for local stock oppo find n3 but decided fold tech just wasnt up to scratch yet. Now looks like its not even listed with any official au stockists anymore.

        Yeah and my iPad Pro m1, my AirPod pro gen 2, my air tags, my Apple xxxL g-string etc

        I was planning to get an ultra 2 when ultra 3 is announced and hopefully see some price reduction… but then when would I have time to wear my ssc813p?

          Sounds like the Willard has taken a step back from official service.

            @MS Paint: I usually do rotation roster on fridays for my collection, last Friday was pagani speedy. Tomorrow sd1970.

            Rest of the week it’s Apple Watch 7 or ssc813 depending on where I need to go.

      Yeah OPPO doesn't really supply Australia with much stock unfortunately. I am very happy I have mine – still running just as well as day 1. ColorOS is a million times better than One UI in terms of smoothness and speed.

      Oppo Find N3 Australian stock is not available anywhere since almost Dec.
      Obviously it doesnt help.

      Some Chinese stock is on sale for 1750 or so.

    You can just say you like shiny new things. It's not being an "enthusiast" if you just buy new phones every 6 months.

      You can say so but i do stick to my main phones for longer .. I do like trying new stuff if there are any deals out there but i make sure i sell them off ASAP before they lose their value

    If you buy it using an Amex Plat credit card you get phone screen protection cover for up to $500.
