Posting this because the Nokia made the "Front Page" deals & for only $10 more you can get this which has better specs.

I did a comparison on GSM Arena.

Optus X Pro 5G, also known as ZTE Blade A73 5G.

  • Includes a free $35 Optus Prepaid SIM
  • Not dual sim
  • Optus Locked but you can usually unlock for free if you're with Optus or Amaysim
  • 5000mAh Battery
  • NFC

Also on special for $149 at Big W.

    Give it a few months, it will be $1 like their other phones on amaysim.

      That was during the 3G shutdown to try & keep their customers happy. And there were no 5G phones for $1.

        $1 for 4G e-waste and $149 for 5g, I would save $148. If someone is burying this as a burner, 4G or 5G won't make a difference.

        A strong competitor at this price would be Moto G54 which ticks every box.

          I bought the Optus X Pro 4G for $1 & it's surprisingly usable. I wasn't the only one who liked it either.

          One of my best Ozbargain buys in a long time. Got me out a jam with my Xiaomi when Optus decided to block me.

            @WatchNerd: I second this, I got a few for free and picked up more when they were $1… I'm also surprised how usable they are, not just functionality but build quality is decent too

            I've gifted to friends and family in need, they've said the same thing

  • shxhshzhz on 02/02/2025 - 14:44

    Amazing how OzBargainers let ewaste reach the front page

      Yeah I was surprised too. Must be people looking for a phone around this price point hence decided to post this which has 5G, better processor, 128GB storage & NFC.

      Also was released released Sept 2023 & the Nokia is July 2022.

      Mobile muster do a good job of recycling

    • AreYouAWiiizard on 02/02/2025 - 17:01

      And what would your solution be for a $150 phone to prevent e-waste?

        He's not talking about this post, noticed he upvoted & this hasn't reached the front page.

          Oh right, so he meant the Nokia.

      • cornucopia on 03/02/2025 - 08:59

        Oppo A60 5G NFC is a good all rounder ..although a bit slow. Comes on at Colesworth occasionally for as low as $149. Locked to Voda though .. but can be used cheaply on felix .. 🤙!

  • Seaman Jones on 02/02/2025 - 16:36

    Am I reading it right that there is also $145 cashback on handsets via Cashrewards?

    • bobokingdom on 02/02/2025 - 17:44

      No, $145 is for postpaid. This is prepaid.

  • HarleyQuinn888 on 02/02/2025 - 19:14

    How many free Android upgrades do these phones get?

      You'll be lucky to get security updates 🤣

    • ozilicious on 03/02/2025 - 03:00

      Mine shipped with 13, got 14 OTA

  • HarleyQuinn888 on 02/02/2025 - 19:46

    Says
    4GB + Up to 4GB Extended RAM 

    With 4GB + Up to 4GB extended RAM, you can run your phone fast and smoothly.

    What type of RAM and where can you buy it from?

    • Huntakillaz on 03/02/2025 - 11:35

      Basically uses 4GB of storage as swap space

  • kent08 on 07/02/2025 - 23:06

    Is this better or the poco c75?
