Are REFURBISHED PHONES worth it?

Wanakijiji help me here, I lost my Samsung S20. Inauma mbaya, am not into buying this Tecno, Infinix chieths. There’s a friend who was recommending I go for a refurbished one, he got an iPhone 7 kilimall n it was worth every penny. He even got it at a bargain throwaway price, however from the reviews section nmeona too many red flags. Should I try my luck with fingers crossed because honestly am on a tight budget and I want a quality phone.

work hard bro, usitamani vitu za kitajiri ilhali bei hufiki.

I bought the s20 brand new bro back then December 2020, sometimes you just need to make some small situational adjustments. I just needed a quality phone for the moment before I budget for a new one.

Kwani budget yako ni ngapi

@Roysambuh 15k

Kama umeona too many red flags…why bother?

Refurbished electronics are always a risk, spend money you’re prepared to lose

MBOMB some have positive reviews, am torn in between.

15k unaweza pata a new medium range Samsung A series ama Xiaomi.

Thanks man

@Condor I have a problem with their average cameras

Unakuanga model ama photographer?

wadau ni vitu gani hizi munaangalia kwa simu. Mimi na A series yangu nikipiga simu, whatsapp, niingie telegram and some good photos that is it. Wale watu wa processor sijui mediatek chieth kwani mko na programu gani izo complex kwa simu zenu. Ni hayo tuu

I only buy refurbished phones. And so far not a single issue. Do your due diligence though before handing over your money

@Kodiaga tukianza talking about AMOLED display is where you’ll get lost. Your kind ni wale wa kuwekelea mkono above the phone while in sun ndo uone vizuri on your Neon

@Exodus from who/where any leads?

Sawa nunua Refab upate iko na double yellow lines kwa screen.

Unakaa omwami wa show off meffi

Iphone 7 wachia watu kama @Tom Bayeye wakufloss na vitu za zamani. Juzi pale IG niliona madem wakinunua hiyo iPhone 7 plus juu ya peer pressure

The most I could try is importing a used phone off swappa.com

@Dennis212 Thanks will look into it
