Not a bad price before the S25 introduces some competition.
Not sure if Officeworks will beat or JB match it

If Officeworks honour it, it's down to $1881 for arguably the top model on the market. The ram nerfed 256GB s25 ultra would be $300-400 more RRP before coupons/trade in deals etc
before coupons/trade in deals etc
Yep. Inb4 someone posts here about how the effective price of an S25 Ultra is $700.
Wasn't a pro max, but they matched the 16 pro 256gb for me on Friday - came down to $1748 and woman on the phone was lovely with no pushback whatsoever. Wasn't in stock in my local but arrived for instore collection yesterday, really happy with the deal.
S23 Ultra preorder was ~$1670 with 512GB, pro S-pen, superior features & the best phone AI (not yet in AU iPhones).On top of the great discount I got ~$250 coupon for accessories & >$200 value in Care+ (2y insurance). The batt is still >99.3% (AccuBattery Pro: 4977 out of 5000mAh with super fast2 45W charger)
Pat yourself on the back
Apple price matches up to 10% their own price only. Not relative to a competitor
Not a bad price before the S25 introduces some competition
So, Bad price after S25 Ultra (with better AI CPU) Unpacked on 22 Jan (superior to iPhones ;)
Android will always be superior to iOS lol. The sheer insanity of the things you're limited by the latter is just…
i was at apple store yesterday (perth) the salesman said no just coz costco use membership. but they will match place like officework.
How would this work? Price match officworks with cosco first, then apple?
Asking as i have an iphone x to trade in with apple.
Paid 1350 for a pro max 13 in 2022, can’t justify the upgrade yet
same here
But battery is only 80% healthy
They should honor it, as I had no issues getting my Apple Watch S10 price matched, plus an additional 5%, by simply showing them the price for the exact same model on the Costco website.
Officeworks will price beat. I managed to do this last week.
Officeworks will price beat, Jb wouldn’t price match.
Not sure about appleJB depends on staff. But they weak indeed.
Called Apple, they don’t match Costco.
Officeworks will price beat…I have done on 10th Jan 2025. Just call 1300 633 423 https://ibb.co/MDmyBGR
Can bring it down further 10 percent after price beat at OW :
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/886999
OW pricebeats Costco.
Can U pay with Officeworks gift card if U price match?
I think you can only do that in store
Waiting for the iPhone 18
Waiting for the iPhone 18 Pro Max Ultra Plus SE 100th Anniversary Supercharged Turbo Boost Limited Edition
Next generation will need to decide between an iPhone Pro Ultra Max Apple Tax and rent / food.
And we already know what they are gonna go for, unfortunately so does Apple.
People spend 10 hours+ a day on their phones so it's one of the most important decisions.
This is more for people who are literal fan boys, I get people spend hrs on their phones but some people make it their whole personality. What phone in 2025 doesn't do anything and everything.
By the neg it seems like you're one of them lol
iphone lasting 10 hours + a day….. on a call. Oh My Dayz.
some people are still arguing about smartphones
Just went through the entire post, who here is arguing about anything?
Why make up stuff
I just bought it from officeworks by price beat with costco
The lady asked if i can show her costco membership card and i was like its online price anyone can buy thisI think i paid $1881
Fwiw I price matched OW online yesterday as no stores near me had stock of the white - was a seamless process. OW online offered free shipping or store pick up in 24hrs. Since had message saying order is delayed not sure when it will arrive for pick up :/
but are you able to use gc to pay it off
Don’t think you can with gc over the phone. If you price match in store then you can I believe. The stores near me didn’t have stock of the colour I wanted so assume they wouldn’t price match if I tried in store (who knows maybe they would order it in)
They still will I had them price match an iPad despite not having it in stock they ordered it for me and told me to collect when ready
I price matched mine over the phone and unfortunately you can't pay via GC. Was trying to get an extra 2% haha.
Has anyone had a price match through JB?
Any deals on the iPhone 14?
Thanks, I’ve seen them at $967. I was wondering if maybe Costco could have had them for less.
Consider buying the 14 pro atleast, noticeable difference in battery and performance.
I was able to find one for just over $1000.@bluedufflecoat: I understand, if you don’t use your phone much then yeah, sure a 13 or 14 would suffice.
@Gervais fanboy: I do use it quite a bit, but I’ve come to a point where the additional features don’t really mean much to me anymore.
@bluedufflecoat: Same
I don’t really care for the camera either but the battery difference is noticeable, also my 14 used to heat up sometimes, 14 pro not so much.
Is it good for taking photos at the Australian Open?
Need fast shutter speed and large sensor with decent zoom, so, no phone camera would cut it
iPhones are a scam
This or an RTX 5090?
It’s like asking whether getting a pair of new runners or a tennis racquet is better.
If you already have a good mobile phone, then 5090. If you already have a good graphics card but need the latest iPhone, this.
I think you mean half a 5090.
GTX 2545?
2007 - 2009 = fresh ‘expensive’ Apple iPhone
2010 - 2016 = delicious innovative & ‘cheaper’ Apple iPhone
2020 - 2024 = stale iterative & ‘expensive’ Apple iPhone
2025 - 202x = rotten incremental ‘unaffordable & undesired by many’ Apple iPhone
202x = dead and buried Apple iPhone. A new company come in, innovates and replaces iPhones.
I don't have a Costco membership nor is one close to me. Can confirm price beat by OW over the phone was easy. Free delivery.
Not bad for the current model (not bad in terms of iPhone prices anyway). We usually don't see actual discounts to those until later in the annual cycle or have to do it with gift cards etc.
Wonder if Apple would price match this and then you could use some Apple GCs bought at 10% off too?
