Sorry but I threw the phone in the bin...Kogan had the chance to impress me twice...firstly with the product, secondly with the quality of the repair...you failed on both accounts..I bought a more reputable brand

Phone is of very poor quality. Avoid it completely

published

I purchased the Phone, The screen Protector and the shock cover from Kogan. I had the phone on my knee and forgot when standing. This little 40cm drop in the "shock protection case" failed to protect the phone. I contacted Kogan and they are saying it is my fault yet there shock absorbsion cover failed to protect the phone from a 40 cm drop. The screen detached from the phone. This demonstarates the poor protection of the absorbsion cover and the poor quality of the phone.

I have previously owned an Agora 6+ and it was great value and worked well. The Agora XS, though, is easily the worst phone I have ever owned.

The OS is so buggy I have to reboot about six times a day. It wont even log in anymore.

It is delicate and cracked on the third day.

The camera is a joke. Kogan have really let themselves down with this useless waste of money.

Good phone but Hotspot does not share internet

published

The phone has a lot to offer with facial recognition, fingerprint scanner, great resolution, above average cameras and plenty of memory space. It looks nice and is easy to use. The BIG problem is it does not share the internet in the hotspot connection. That means the other devices like a tablet or laptop can not connect. This is a basic function of even cheap phones. The tech help could not fix it (and could not find the problem. This is the reason my recommendation is do not buy!

Phone does everything... fast and reliable

published

Phone operates on all Australian frequencies for Vodafone, Telstra and optus problem free. The phone is fast, easy to read and responsive. Fingerprint reader works first time, every time and the wireless charging very effective. Highly recommend this phone

Great value for moneu

published

I'm happy with the Agora XS.
Large screen, good quality build, robust and full featured.
I was surprised expecting it to be another budget cheapie.
Great camera resolution.
Some folks say that Kogan's support is a pain to deal with, but that's not what I've found in previous
dealing so I'm pretty relaxed about that.

The phone looks good, but we found it NOT to be user friendly, especially the dual sim card setup, it's so easy to damage the sim card when you insert or remove it, and when you do, contacting Kogan is no fun, you'll need plenty of patience. There doesn't appear to be any space for a memory card in this phone. The camera is quite good though, BUT the sim card problem lets it down, and as it's a mobile phone first, this is a setback. Alright, we're not really computer savvy, but it should be designed with people like us in mind, that is, easy to use and setup.

Forget it, Kogan are useless. My phone was in a protective cover on my knee. When i stood up it fell the small distance to the floor. The screen detached from the body of the phone and Kogan doesnt want to know you. Best to avoid using Kogan in the future.

I have a friend that will go into the phone on developer mode and might be able to fix the lack of internet sharing while hotspotting. Kogan is unable to help and claim no problem can be found.
