Hey individual,
If you're looking for a cheap dual sim phone;
The Leagoo M9 or M9 Pro aren't too bad, but lack in memory with only 2gb RAM.
I owned the M9 (Android 7) for about a year or so and it's a great phone with excellent battery life but it's only 3G;
Where the M9 Pro was 4G (and Android 8).

I purchased my M9 from http://www.banggood.com/ for AU$84 delivered.
I was great value for money.

- But you'll find them here for US$46 and US$59 respectively with free shipping.
http://leagooglobal.aliexpress.com/store/500192

I've now upgraded to a newer phone, which I purchased directly from China from http://www.aliexpress.com/ but I found that as phones improve (or with newer versions of Android, one or the other) and come with higher resolutions, that they make the top icons smaller and it becomes more difficult to easily read, compared to the earlier phone.

* Also FYI, this is important.
If you buy directly from a Chinese site like Aliexpress, MAKE CERTAIN that you confirm the phone is a 'Global Version' and NOT a 'Chinese Version'.
- I think however that the Aliexpress link above already goes to the 'Leagoo Global Store', as opposed to the Aliexpress 'Leagoo Official Store'.

Disregard my last comment;
It's of no use if all you've got is Testra.

Armchair Critic,
I find it just so utterly disillusioning that Australians have got themselves into a situation where they have to scour for cheap products/services from overseas. Telstra's use of people in other countries to run an Australian service is an extremely & particularly sad indictment of the mentality of it's investors. It is these investors' hunger for the Dollar that makes Telstra the probably most expensive internet provider in the World. Sad, sad, sad !

We pay too much for everything in Australia, including wages. Australia is a very expensive country to live in, and that's that, I'm afraid. Globalisation hasn't helped. Politicians are more interested in big noting themselves on the world stage than they are in working for the people they are supposed to represent. Nothing will change as long as we keep voting for the same riff raff.

We need to take stock. Politicians and governments have lost sight of whose interests they represent. President Trump is clearly one of the few exceptions. Whether he is renegotiating trade deals, or trying to secure US borders and reform immigration laws, or rolling back onerous environmental regulations, his goal, as he says, is to put America and Americans first. Hungary’s prime minister Viktor Orban is another in the Trump mould. There aren’t many in the West who have not forgotten that their job is govern in the interests of their citizens; all of them, and no one else.

ttbn,
What worries me so much about Telstra is that they don't appear to worry about exposing our details to I.t. people in other countries thereby gradually jeopardising our security.
