At least the seller is not promising a warranty. (A warranty by a Chinese seller is as worthless as a burp on Titan.)
Equally, at least the seller is not claiming that the item is in Australia.

I would say that this is a cheaply-made phone, produced in a Chinese factory of the cheapest possible raw materials, which means that the components are unlikely to be fit for purpose and the stated capacity etc is likely to be grossly overstated.
It will have no warranty.
Because of its cheapest possible components, it won't meet Australian safety standards. From a previous answer that I'd made in the Answer Centre:
❝You are taking an enormous risk in buying electronic parts and gear from Hong Kong / China. The goods are highly unlikely to be made to Australian safety standards. Do the items that you're buying have EESS Conformity Certification (CCS)? I suspect not. It's one thing to buy grey goods / parallel imports to save some money (at the risk of possibly having no enforceable warranty), but it's far worse when one buys electric/electronic goods made in the cheapest possible way in factories in China where there isn't any standard comparable to the Australian safety standards, and neither is there any responsibility for the safety of the persons who end up using those goods.
If something goes wrong, you could damage or destroy other (more expensive) goods, damage/destroy your house, injure/kill other people in the vicinity, and suffer injury or loss of life yourself.
If the cause of a fire or other catastrophic event is determined to be electric/electronic goods that you've bought from China, and those goods are shown in the investigation not to meet Australian safety standards, there won't be any insurance cover, either.
Of course, it's your decision whether or not you wish to continue buying computer parts and adapters and cables and the Lord only knows what else from China / Hong Kong. Perhaps it's being "penny wise pound foolish", though; it's certainly an actual risk. I would not put the lives of the people I love in such danger, for the sake of a few dollars.
“There are regulations that apply to the supply of electrical equipment and appliances. The requirements set out in the regulations must be followed. A failure to do so is a criminal offence.”
“Regulations and Standards apply to all electrical equipment sold or offered for supply in Australia. Certain types of equipment are classified as prescribed. These pieces of equipment must go through a certification process which ensures the equipment is compliant to the relevant safety standards before being offered for supply in Australia.”
“Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM)
Prescribed electrical products must have an RCM on the appliance or an Australian approval number to show that the product has been certified.
This mark is currently recognised by all States and Territories of Australia.”
