This has been an ongoing trend for at-least 2 years from you. Instead of window shopping perhaps you should just buy one?

This was discussed in other thread. The New Zealand models distributed by the telcos have NFC. If you buy a parallel imported model and don't get NFC... Don't complain later.

Thanks mate, thats what I was presuming. So ask first questions later ;-p

Good to know though.

I think the prices are a bit high in NZ stock but thats just comparison to chinese phones. Xiaomi 9se is my other option I guess.
