Interesting - the G57 seems to downgrade some areas (base storage, SD card, e-sim etc):…

Yep - I got one at $219. But if I hadn't and was in the market for one this price is still very good - and probably better for local…

The only thing that puts me off refurbished options is that often you pay for it with a reduced battery capacity depending on the age and…

Just covering off one un-answered question from the last post: "Bindiver on 08/12/2025 - 10:15 Hi, thanks for your answers, still waiting…

Yep - agree with everything sroby mentions. The only relatively minor downside for me is the LCD screen coming from an OLED panel from my…

Does it sound better with the door open or closed? =P (Look at the Priceme link...)

Yep - appears that price has jumped back up to $400+, but it would not surprise me if it dips back down to a similar deal price again.

Hi there, I have this phone. From what I can see it accommodates one physical sim card and one physical SD card. In addition it has an…

Tempting price - but as others point out - somewhat questionable support from D-Link. If you keep an eye on the Tapo store they sometimes…

Fair comment. Or perhaps look to change to network that does allow it?

Being a 'cheapie' I am of course on Kogan, which is a running on One. I would be surprised if it did not work on 2D. (I could be wrong but…

That is like a 50% price increase from a few weeks back! Inflation out of control! =P

Yes - i tried a ChromeOS device a few years ago. There were just too many limitations / quirks that I ran into. If you look on trade me you…

Good to hear it works for you. It is funny how my wanting a headphone jack and SD card support is pushing me down into budget phone…

Not voting either way on this - but these devices are fairly old and limited (even with chromeos).

Yep - apparently they can run on rechargeable batts as well (no doubt with reduced run time).

Thanks - bought a pack to supplement some other (wired) cameras. Figure I can attach to some nearby trees - at this price I am willing to…

I did try to see if the various AU ebay deals were better, but after tax, conversion and shipping I think this deal was better - and…

I did look into this - as far as I am aware it should be fine (network, VolTE etc). I believe Moto only make one model of this phone - and…

Maybe if you need a rugged phone. But to the best of my knowledge it is already out of OS support - released in 2021. 6GB of ram is bare…

I agree, oled would be best. although based on the reviews apparently the lcd screen in this unit is quite good. I will soon find out.

Not sure - give it a go! But with shipping and GST adjustments it may just wash out.

I don't know what is going with Kogan - I don't usually look there much (i think I saw the recent Ozbargain posts which led me to the NZ…

Not sure what is going on with the Kogan website, I ordered this phone a few days ago, then went to post here but the listing disappeared,…

Yep - totally agree, 8gb is really the limit these days for anything usable (especially in light of the AI processes that will be…

Yeah - i agree, thinking the same thing. Unfortunately, 'if' Kogan do decide to do another BF deal it may not be until late Nov (after this…

I am also interested in doing this as well. I am a fairly low user of internet (mostly email, web and a little YouTube). Thinking about…

I used a One NZ Sim in a Spark 4g modem a few years back - worked fine. But I assume they could tighten up on this?

Not sure if the USA have some preorder specials as well - but if their RRP list price is 449 USD then that works out to be around $761 NZD…

Yes - and for some reason the prices maybe showing as AU instead of $NZ (even though I have selected show in $NZ on the website?) So the…
