The G Flex is one of the most intriguing products available from LG at the moment, with a 6″, flexible, curved display it’s got that ‘certain something’ that people around you will instantly want to check out when you pull your phone out. Previously only available outright through Harvey Norman, it’s now available exclusively from Optus.
The plans for the LG G Flex start at $35, with a $24.75 handset repayment (minimum Total Cost is $1,434.00 over 24 months), which includes 500MB of data and 200 minutes of talk time, as well as unlimited SMS and MMS in Australia. Or if handset repayments aren’t your thing you can get it with no handset repayments on their $100 per month plan, which includes 3GB of data as well as Unlimited Talk time and SMS/MMS.
The G Flex is a great handset, with the only downer we found when reviewing the phone, was the price of the handset. Now with the handset available on a subsidised plan, that issue is now not a problem. Check out our review of the LG G Flex.

To this day I still regret not getting a Nokia 8110 in 1996. I wonder if I’ll have the same regret about not getting this in a few years time?
Well, $590 on Kogan aint so bad.
Give it a few months to drop a bit more.
time to keep a look on gumtree for outright purchase
