my price range is 3-500

almost got scammed, and doing more research it looks like all the good deals are scam sites.

do I really have to go with PB Tech, JB HiFi, etc.? (Dick Smith has the cheapest option I can see...but they've always been the kind of company to pawn off disreputable defective product under their own brand name, so I'd prefer not to support them)

is there a renowned best deal in town with techies?

should I just be patient and go with Amazon?

Huawei Nova 5T

Was down to $388 at Black Friday but still a pretty good price.

I'm one of those 'say no to Huawei' people.

What kind of phone are you looking for?

What matters the most? Speed? Battery? UI? Camera? Quality?

Lot's of variables so it would be best to nail it down a bit more.

Ramblings from a mysterious lady who's into tech. Warning I may often create zingers.

a Samsung galaxy in the $3-500 range.

reasonable RAM and storage.

camera upgrades are the only reason I'm willing to spend the extra $50 for the M31.

I'm more interested in who's the best retailer.
