Vodafone plans
Vodafone's $5 a day roaming charge makes it a very enticing choice for frequent international travellers. You'll also get unlimited talk and text across all plans.
Pricing for the Galaxy S7 start at $75 for 500MB a month. That would be a crazy decision though, as the next plan up offers 3GB for $80 a month. But even crazier is that the next plan up from that, which includes 6GB of data, only costs $77 a month.
$88 a month will deliver 8GB of data (6GB plus 2GB bonus), $105 brings 12GB (10GB plus 2GB bonus) while the top of the line plan has 20GB for $130.
As with the other carriers, the S7 Edge has a slight price premium on the handset repayments, so 500MB costs $83, and 3GB jumps to $95. Just like the S7 plans though, the 6GB option is cheaper than 3GB at $90 a month, or you can get 8GB for $95.
12GB will set you back $111 each month, while the curved screen phone with 20GB a month will set you back $133 each month.
Plus, you can claim some bonus Qantas frequent flyer points on the 8GB, 12GB and 20GB plans.
Virgin Mobile plans
The budget Optus telco also has a full suite of plans for the Galaxy S7 family, with the cheapest plans on offer (although also with the lowest data inclusions on the low price tier).
For $60 a month for the Galaxy S7 or $65 for the S7 Edge, you get 300MB of data and $300 worth of talk and text.
$65 (or $70 for an Edge) will bump up bundled talk and text to Unlimited, while included data jumps to 1.1GB (500MB plus 600MB bonus).
$70 ($75 for the Edge) pushes the data allowance up to 1GB, though you'll get a bonus 1GB for the first 3 months.
The next level sees the Galaxy S7 cost $75 a month ($80 for the Edge) with 3GB of data (plus a bonus 1GB and an extra 3GB for the first 3 months).
You'll get 6GB (plus 2GB and a bonus 6GB for three months) on the $85 plan for the Galaxy S7 (or $91 for the Edge), while the $100 plan for the S7 gives 10GB (plus 3GB bonus and an extra 10GB for the first 3 months) of data (and the Edge plan costs $104 a month).
For $130 a month, you can get either phone thrown in the plan, and have a whopping 15GB plus 6GB bonus included and an extra 15GB for the first three months.
For all those plans, you will need to either get a new number or upgrade or switch to the Optus network to get the bonus data figures, though.
