There are many of us who are unwilling to spend a fortune on a new phone. While the market for the selling and buying of used phones is expanding, there are few points that you need to keep in mind to ensure you make a fair deal.
These are the 5 points you must consider while buying a used phone:
1: Physical Examination:
Apart from checking the phone for scratched screen or a loose back cover, check the phone for liquid damage. Besides checking all ports, it is advisable to check the battery sticker for signs of discoloration, which is an indication of water damage. Ensure the phone is switched on when checking for cracks. In case the phone has dents and cracks, there is a good chance that the phone may have internal damage.
2: Technical specifications:
When buying a used phone, be sure of what technical specifications you want. The manufacturer's website will give you a lowdown on the technical specifications of the phone. Sometimes, the phone may look new but could suffer from functional issues. Check the touch screen and other applications of the phone to ensure they are working normally.
3: Android or iPhone?
You must buy an iPhone if you are looking for security and ease of use. For those wanting device personalisation and versatility, Android phone is an option.
4: Is the phone unlocked?
When choosing a cellular carrier, an unlocked phone offers greater flexibility. Used unlocked phones are usually more expensive. However, whether locked or unlocked, the price of the phone will eventually determine whether the purchase is worth it.
5: Buying online
Buying a second-hand phone over the Internet is not a good idea since you will not be able to examine the phone physically. Getting in touch with the seller personally is safer. Another important point is to check the price of the phone at various platforms to avoid getting dodged.
