Nicely done, much appreciated!

I'd like to share my experience on the "STATUS SYMBOL" part STATUS SYMBOL in a good way, not to brag that you have the latest and greatest tech. People tend to judge you in a materialistic manner. When I went to inquire in a Mercedes Benz & BMW Dealership because I'm looking to buy a Brand New Car because I'm doing good in life, I was looking to buy a new car. The sales agent didn't take me seriously and same goes on my experience when I went in a LV store. The Sales person was grumpy and looked me as if I'm a hindrance. I own a Poco F4, a mid range phone I bought a few years ago when I was struggling in my career a few years ago during the pandemic. I just use it for Facebook / Email / Messenger. Just for daily use. But it gets frustrating that people treat you horribly because they think you're just wasting their time because you look broke because you own a Chinese and Budget Phone. Specially when you go to a high end stuff

Better features like no headphone jack, no micro sd, no removable battery

Great video!!!

I got my Fold 5 b/c it's the best phone for me. It's not the best phone out there ; but it is for me. I am never looking back.

it is crazy that these phone cameras are measuring up to actually really good cameras

I recently got my parents a used Pixel 6 in a good shape for less than 120 €. Insane value with 2 more years of security updates ❤

I hate phones.

I just bought an iPhone 12 mini for £129. It’s never had a single component changed and the screen is immaculate. It does everything I’ll ever need it to.

If you keep a watch for 4 years and then buy a new one = your costs are 266 (example from your video) / 4 years. In the same system if you buy a 2 year old watch every year your costs are 136 / 1 year. If you consider this point, your conclusion didn't do the math till the end.

ill stay with 00:00

I think I'll upgrade from my $220 Huawei Nova 11i to Something like a Pura 70 or Nova 14 next year too

Great info thanks, new subscriber from Australia 👍🇦🇺

I was using cheap phones for years .P9 lite,P20 lite,P40 lite. I recently just got the Pixel 9 pro XL and its a way more satisfying experience. Sometimes i just open apps and close them for the smooth haptic feedback

This is a high quality channel. I appreciate your videos.

Deleted Farcebook over 6 months ago. Its a relief. Dont have deal with people whom I thought were good till I read their post. It feels great to get off people's radars. Stop telling people about yourself what you do ect.. Keep things private to yourself. You deserve that your a human. Ditch all that toxic garbage. Ditch the attention hounds. Ditch the fake people. If someone really wanted to get in touch they'd text or call. Free yourself and take a load off your mind. Like I said above, its a relief. You will not miss out on anything. Stay strong you can delete Farcebook. I did, you can.

Bought a used Pixel 7. Takes great pictures, texting thanks to RCS, Pandora music its free, and google maps.

if they follow you where the hell sick minded ppl go...😅 to whom they would show their illicit nature

It's only a phone cheap or costly does the same

You look like Ed Sheeran ❤

I once owned a cheap Samsung phone coming from an iPhone, and I can confidently say the experience was frustrating after a couple of weeks. Cheap Android phones with low specs and memory will ground down in performance quite quickly. I hated it.

Apple gives more care for the pro years later… for example ,iPhone 15 pro gets ai an 15 dosnt !!! My old M1 Pro iPad gets AI!!! Hhh it’s like 3 years old … always go for the pro!! 20% difference is nothing

I think it’s about size, I use iph 15 pro, it’s expensive but no one really knows it unless you look closely. An ultra or promax model costs more and draws attention to u in public

This is true. Modern day phones are actually a bargain. I haven't realized that until I saw this video. No longer people have to get multiple items separately like years ago. Good job 👍.

My next phone will be bought used, I'm not going to upgrade for a few years

+the workflow on a Phone camera is SOOO much better! I have a decent camera but I shoot all my YT videos with a Phone, not even an expensive Iphone but a Poverty £100 Pixel 6a lol. Don't really care that the ''real'' camera looks 10-20% better if in the same Time I can produce 2x more videos with a phone :D

I wonder what the cost of ownership would be for Buy 3year old iPhone and keep for 3 years

Reselling their "old" phone is how I often hear people justifying buying a new phone every year. But overall they are still spending much more compared to just buying an okay phone instead of buying an overpriced device. Most people only use their phone for some light browsing, social media and some unprofessional photos and they get tricked into buying a phone that is as expensive as a motorcycle or old car

Bought a used Oneplus Nord 4 for 272 dollars. Crazy value

It might depend on the time and what sales might be going on. I have bought most my phones refurbished. I think I bought my Note 20 Ultra three years ago for $550. I live in the US so sales might be different but my Note 20 Ultra was going to lose security updates next year so I was thinking about upgrading. Samsung offers great preorder deals. I was able to get $600 for trading in my Note 20 Ultra to get a s24 Ultra for $599. With taxes, free buds pro 2, a case, and screen protector the total was $730. I think in this situation it makes sense to buy new but I think it might all depend on time and circumstance. Apple doesn't offer that great of a trade in deal for their devices. It might be worth it to just sell an old device and buy another used or refurbished device.

iPhone 6s is going on 10 years old, and guess what, it feels exactly like a current day SE minus the battery life or more powerful chip, it’s the exact same performance, it does anything you’d need a phone to do, and it’s reliable given you don’t push it too hard to where it’s battery will drain (as any phone does and laptops too) it’s seriously something that if apple cared of the environment they wouldn’t of made new se models, they would just take iPhone 6s boards and add some more ram to them, it’d be that simple to keep old hardware up to date, it’s proven by old macs, they run Ventura just fine

Currently using Samsung F14, got it under 120 usd, great battery, takes decent photos, good display quality, does most of the day to day tasks flawlessly, going great❤

Thank you for the video. Just upgraded from 11 Pro Max to a 15 Pro Max used one with 99% battery capability. 800€ was a good deal!

According to the curve 1 year old Samsungs are great. Falling of fast and still getting 6 years of support is fantastic

one thing that i appreciate about reusing „good condition“ items is that we actually try to preserve anything that we have for last. my iphone 13 still in good condition after buying it new back in the late 2021. i don’t think i need a new one because the battery still good until now. even IF I had to. I‘ll buy prolly 13 pro max. i just need their mobility for their insanely good camera (yes i pick iphone instead because my ecosystem is apple) 😅

Christ this video was a nothingburger that was extremely padded. You could trim the video to 2 minute while cutting off the entire first 5 minutes of the video as its not relevant to the title/ should have been way shorter.

Btw, your moustache is great. Good to see young people with a moustache or beard 👍

The biggest issue with buying used is the battery. If you're buying a 2+ year old Phone it will need a new battery. So you can add €100+ onto the price you'll pay all in all. To a lesser extent, import duties and shipping costs will also detract from the bargain. For example I want an iPhone. I've been looking at used iPhone 13's on eBay UK as well as refurb companies. The price is on average around £350 which is €420. I live in Cyprus so to import this, I'm looking at about €30-40 shipping costs. Plus I'll have to pay import duties of 19%. 420 + 19% = €499.80 €499.80 + €30 shipping= €529.80. Then replace the battery = €529.80 + €100 = €629.80 for a used iPhone 13. I can still buy it here brand new for €599..... So in special cases like this, buying used is not always the best option.

Yo change your channel image with u in black and white and background with yellow or a shocking or a eye catching colour

When you say 1 year old iphone, do you mean a used iphone or a new iphone from last year?

Great channel!!! 😊Keep up that good work. Cheers

Niceeeeee, I've been buying used phones for the past few years, both for flipping and using. Your tips'd definitely help beginners a lot!!

Next video on how to sell a phone pls

Why the f doesn't he have more subscribers 😢😢

Not everything you say in the video is true. "Google pixel -> very long software support". Xiaomi 13T and Xiaomi 13T Pro have 4 years of major updates and 5 years of security updates. Same with OnePlus and even OnePlus Nord 4 (not a flagship) have 6 years of security updates. And yep, same for Samsung. In fact, Google is the opposite of the software updates with only 3 years of major updates and 5 years of security updates

Very useful Information.

In Australia the price of an iPhone 15 Pro Max is really no different to buying refurbished ($1500 for 256GB in Oct 24) and I've had a great experience getting a refurbished phone replaced for free under warranty so I know what I'd rather do

nice!
