The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is now on sale, and Optus has some top deals on offer.

If you're happy to get in early and purchase your Note 8 before October 31 (and register it before November 14), you'll get one free screen repair that you can use within your first 12 months of ownership. Given that the phone's almost all glass, getting in on this offer is probably a good idea.

You can check out all of Optus' Note 8 plans below.

If you want to save around $10 per month and possibly get some extra data, you can lease your Note 8 on Optus instead. This does however mean handing your Note 8 back to Optus when you upgrade your phone or when your contract is over.

Our favourite Optus pick is the $130 plan, which is currently being discounted to $100 per month. With handset repayments, this means you're paying $110 a month for a brand new Note 8, 30GB of data, unlimited talk and text, 750 international minutes, an Optus Sport subscription, and data free music streaming through Google Play Music and Spotify. 

This plan also includes unlimited international calls when roaming, and 1GB of data to use each month you're overseas in a "zone one country" .
