Mobile phones

Get a brand new smartphone in your pocket, your way.

You have the choice to buy a phone on My Plan Plus, or lease selected handsets on My Plan Flex. When you lease, while you don't own the phone, you could pay up to $10 less on your monthly bill on some My Plan Flex plan and phone combinations, compared to similar My Plan Plus options. And you have the freedom to upgrade after 12 months for just $99 when you return the current phone in good working order and sign up to a new 24-month plan.

Both options come with inclusions you'll love - data you can pool and share, and unlimited standard national talk and text to Australian numbers.

iPhone 8. Our best price ever. Get excited.

Handy Links

Choose from a wide range of the latest devices from Optus, including Samsung, Sony, Nokia, Oppo and more.

Whatever phone you choose you'll get generous data, unlimited standard national talk and text, plus you can keep in touch with friends and family in 32 popular countries when you're out and about in Australia.

Enjoy superfast downloads, web browsing and streaming on our 4G Plus network with a compatible device and plan. Our 4G Plus network is now available in all capital cities and hundreds of regional towns with the latest devices. Check at optus.com.au/coverage.

Mobile phone plans often include monthly phone repayments, usually spread out over 24 months. Remember that cancellation fees may apply.

Perhaps you've instead decided to BYO (bring your own) phone. If so, you can get a SIM card on one of our SIM-only plan options, and use your phone on the Optus mobile network in Australia - as long as it's compatible and unlocked from any other network provider, you're good to go. Remember coverage varies by device, so pick one that's compatible with our entire network to get the best experience.

Buying a mobile phone that's right for you will depend on many factors, some of which include: your budget, the kinds of features most useful to you, and what your likely usage will be.Perhaps you prefer to have a phone with a large HD screen; or something that's a little more compact, that will easily fit in your pocket or purse. We have everything from phones with small screens to large-screened smartphones or "phablets".

Mobile phone cameras have come a long way and now rival the resolution and performance of many compact digital cameras on the market; so, if taking photos with your phone is important to you, high-end smartphones give you good image quality in most conditions.

If you live or work in our 4G Plus network coverage areas and use mobile internet a lot for downloading music or files, streaming HD video, or playing games, then one of the latest 4G phones might be right up your alley.

However, if having access to quicker 4G* data speeds isn't a deal breaker for you, then one of our 3G phones might fit your budget, and still provide you with mobile internet access in Optus coverage areas.

Whatever you're searching for, we're here to help match you up with the best mobile phone and best mobile plans to suit you.

THE DETAILS

OPTUS MY PLAN FLEX/PROMO FLEX PLANS

My Plan Flex/Promo Flex plans allow you to lease an eligible device on a 24 month plan and use it to access the Optus network. You do not own the device and you must return the device to Optus in good working order at the end of your contract. If it is not in good working order, you'll pay a damage fee of up to $499. If the phone gets damaged during your lease and you'd like to have it fixed, you need to pay to have it repaired by Optus or the manufacturer (excludes warranty/consumer guarantee claims).

You can offer to purchase the device at the end of your 24 month lease contract for fair market value (which we’ll advise at the time).

If you don’t return the device at the end of your contract term, you’ll continue to pay monthly device charges for up to 2 months (as well as your plan fees). At that point, if you still don't return the device, you will have to pay us a non- return fee (the fair market value of the device which we’ll advise at the time) and you will own the device.

After 12 months you can upgrade the device by paying a one-off fee of $99. To do this you need to return the current device in good working order to Optus and get a new device on a new 24-month plan. If the current device is damaged, you’ll pay a damage fee. If you don’t return the current device within 14 days of your new contract you’ll have to pay for the device at its fair market value.

MY PLAN FLEX/PROMO FLEX CANCELLATION

If you cancel at any time within the 24 month contract term you will be charged a plan cancellation fee, pro-rated monthly for your remaining contract term. Additionally, if you cancel in the first 18 months you'll have to keep the phone and pay all monthly device charges (which will be increased by any device credits lost as a result of early cancellation) for the remainder of the contract term. If you cancel in the last 6 months of your 24 month contract, you can either return the device to us or make an offer to purchase it at fair market value (which we'll advise at the time). If you choose to return the device, you'll pay $99 if it's in good working order or a damage fee of up to $499 if it's damaged.
