Don’t buy mobile direct from China. I bought a Chinese phone from Singapore seller online, turns out it does not have international ROM. It does not have Playstore. You have to reInstall Google installer for Chinese phones each time you reset your phone to factory. Better to buy from brick and mortar in Australia.There are Xiaomi’s sold in AU? OPPO and Huawei are quite pricey. Huawei has a cheaper range called Honor series in Singapore
