In kenya there are these loan phones called m-kopa or d-light once someone sells you the phone its finito for you because you didn't know its a loan phone and there are no ways of differentiating between a normal and a loan phone
What about Amazon renewed? Waiting till s23 or s24 ultra to lower price
True
Nice tips

I'm surprised nobody talks about this but I tried buying a used Infinix note 30 vip on FB market place but most of them are fake, but in the about it will still show Dimensity 8050 and other things correctly, how I found out is because they have no JBL branding and it's side mounted fingerprint with a large bezels, please Will it still work like the original?

I would never buy second hand it's not worth the risk,buy new at least then you are covered by warranty and guarantee plus ALWAYS keep till receipt.

But second hand stores test the phone when buying it and test it with u when selling it to you. They also have a warranty. Makes more sense than buying an overpriced bad phone
I have s20+5G and want to sale it. Reply if interested, device have a slight Crack on the glass and screen guard can cover it
Just got a Samsung S21 256gb Uk Used at Computer Village, and against my fears, the phone looks as good as new with no issues whatsoever, for just 250k. I guess this is probably luck, considering a colleague got the 128gb of the same phone for 300k and the phone overheats badly

I think anybody would be foolish to argue with that, lol. New is always better, but new is also more more expensive... people looking to buy used phones do so to save cost and get a good phone for the price, not because they believe used phones are better than new ones😅

@CRAB.. they are, it takes years for mid range phones to catch up and the old flagship equivalent will always cost less than the almost comparable latest mid range. Current A ranges best offerings is around or worse than s20 performance with worse screens and none of the flagship features. Whilst costing way more than a second hand s20.

In other words, never buy used phones.
