Good Deal: Get a Pixel 2 XL & 15GB for $49 per month from Telstra

If you're after a smartphone bargain, Telstra is running out the remainder of its Google Pixel 2 XL stock and it's hard to argue with the price. $49 per month gets you a 64GB Pixel 2 XL in the fetching panda-inspired black-and-white colourway and a robust 15GB of data.

You'll pay $1,176 over the course of your 24-month contract, which is pretty damn good value when you consider that JB Hi-Fi is still selling the Pixel 2 XL for $999 outright.

While the Pixel 2 XL is a late-2017 smartphone, Google continues to update its Pixel smartphones well after launch. At this stage, Google will provide major operating system updates for the Pixel 2 XL until at least October 2020. That will get you to Android R at a minimum. 

Since this deal is a run out, you'll want to get in quick: Telstra's Pixel 2 XL promo will only be available while stocks last.
