[PreOrder] Google Pixel 9 Pro XL 256GB $299 Upfront (after $1697 off) on Optus $69/M 24M Plan (in-Store Only) @ Harvey Norman

250

*****Customers who cancel this plan within 120 days of activation will need to pay back the base value of the Harvey Norman gift card or the value of the device discount they received. Plus, if you cancel your plan, you’ll also have to pay any remaining payments for your device in full if you have chosen a repayment option, plus all charges incurred up until the date of cancellation.****

Looks like they are forcing us to use the plan for 4 months, which kinda reduces the appeal of the deal as it was last time. looks like:

$69x4 =$276
upfront=$299
canx =$690($69*20/2)

Total: $1265 for the 256GB or $1116 for 128GB.

Is it still a great deal?
i still think it is a good deal.

    seems like a good deal even if you go full term?

  • +2

    Whats $828 ? 69 x 24/2 ?

    Shouldnt it be 69 x 20/2 as 4 months would have passed ?

    • +2

      yes!
      got late for the coffee.

  • I can only find 128gb in the terms, it has Pixel 9 XL 128gb rebate for both $69 and $99 plans followed by Fold 256gb $69

    • you can pay the difference for higher storage.

  • +1

    How are you getting $299 upfront, isn't the cost of the 256GB $1996.
    So $1996 less $1550 = $446

      upfront for 128gb is $149(not $300), so just added another $150 to upgrade to 256GB. i did the same last year.

      • +3

        128GB upfront would be $1846-$1550=$296.

  • Any chance we can stack trade-in bonuses with this?

  • Can I sign up and pay a early termination fee to have it in a low cost

    • Sorry didn’t read the post haha

    • Let me know!

  • How does this compare to the JB HI FI offer for $1700 gift card. I know with that one you can cancel straight away but there is debate on what the cancellation fee will be as they changed the terms and conditions recently.

    • if the canx for that is what is said in that deal, or someone actually confirms, then that is a better deal by around $100. i am waiting for that confirmation too.

  • Any minimum period we need to be away from optus?

    On p8p deal from last year, but can easily swap to another provider for a few days. Obviously can't do 30 days like JB deals.

    And yeah saw the change to minimum period on optus, clearly not an issue for me since I'm on last year's plan still.

    • i believe as long as your credit is good with them, there should not be any issue, just porting out and porting in straight away.

      • Cheers, credit should be fine so I'll grab a random Sim today to port out to temporarily.

    You might still able to get 50% off monthly plan by calling optus cust care like last year. This year they chaging the terms hoping to avoid the bulk cancellation. Great deal if you planning to keep the service.

    It would make more sense if I can trade-in my pixel8 pro ,pay off the contract with Optus with trade-in $$ and sign up for a new plan with pixel 9 pro XL.

  • Does anyone know if this will be able to be applied to the 9 Pro? That page mentions the 9, 9XL & Fold but not the Pro which is what I want. I'd 100% be doing this on the weekend if I can do it with the Pro.

    • +1

      Isn't the 9pro being released slightly later anyway?

      • +1

        Ohhhh you're right. Well shit. Of course the one model I want before I go on holidays in November is delayed. Great.

  • That plan has data also, or just phone itself ?

    • 100GB per month

  • +1

    Man I did this for the p8pro and the in store sign up process was slow and painful, like being back in the early 2000s.

    • +1

      Same, took about an hour inc a HN phone call to Optus.

      • +1

        Yep. Sat there while they jump from phone call to call took over an hour

  • Assuming that this would exclude the $350 gift card?

  • how much for 512G?

  • +1

    How are you getting $299?
    Pixel 9 Pro XL 128gb $1846
    Storage upgrade ~$150?
    $69 Optus plan -$1550
    = $446
    Unless there is something I've missed.

  • Now this is a good deal

  • Maths not mathing for $299 upfront.
    It would be $446 for 256gb upfront…..

  • I see the professionals have made Gerry change the T&Cs lol

  • So do you also get two gift cards for signing up assuming you were planning to use the phone to full term?

    The ad on the phone page advises a $350 HN gift card with purchase, but the T&C's on the Optus plan page advise another different gift card value for signing up to the service? Would be pretty immense to get both

    • You only get the $350 bonus gift card if you buy the phone outright with the Latitude 36 month interest free offer.

      • ahh right. god that website is a mess haha

  • I'm curious if anyone else is experiencing rapid battery drain with the Pixel 6/7/8, where the battery can't even last a full day for me. Now, I'm losing hope for the Pixel 9.

    • FWIW.. Watched alot of reviews. They are saying the issue has been fixed on these 3 models.

      • Yes and no - it has been improved, but not completely fixed. The design itself is flawed, so while there have been some adjustments, the core issue remains due to weak design.

  • Would be also great to see if the 100$ pre-registration bonus can be applied.

    Very tempted, trust this one more than the JB Telstra deal. The $69 plan isnt too bad, I will probably actually use this plan, so in my head I am calculating with anyway having to pay $20-30 month, so not really $69 for my budgeting.

    I also received an email from HN with the subject "Your Exclusive $100 Gift Card* with new Google Pixel pre-order." I assume anyone else who got the same email can combine it with this offer.
