Factors Affecting Mobile Resale Value
Not all devices have the same resale prices. Learn about the factors affecting the value of your device:
Brand And Model
High-end brands like Apple and Samsung usually come up with a higher resale price than other devices. The phones which are in-demand tend to retain more prices than basic ones.
Physical Appearance
- No scratches or dents = High value
- Screen cracks or broken back panel = Low value
- Good maintenance results in good prices
Functionality
Everything must be functioning:
- Touch screen
- Camera
- Health of battery
- Face ID/Finger print reader
Sometimes even minor problems could affect your phone price.
Storage Capacity & Variants
Phones with higher storage capacity such as 128GB, 256GB, etc., fetch better resale prices.
Box, Charger, and Bill
Carrying the original packaging, charger, and invoice may slightly raise the price of your phone.
