Are you stuck with a smartphone that has seen better days? We've all experienced it – the frustration of dealing with a cracked screen and a malfunctioning home button every time you pick up your phone.
Saying farewell to your reliable device can be a bit more satisfying when you know you can get the best value for trading it in with Mobiceller. In this post, we can assist you if you are looking to transform your old technology into some extra cash. We will explore the costs associated with common repairs, such as screen replacements, and address typical phone issues. We will also evaluate whether refurbishing your device before selling it is worth it and will obtain you some additional funds.
It's safe to say that almost everyone with a smartphone has encountered the dreaded crack at some point. While many devices can still function adequately with a minor crack, in certain cases, it can render them unusable and disrupt the calibration.
The unfortunate part is that repairing a cracked screen can be expensive, particularly if the damage is significant enough to impact the screen's functionality. For instance, if you're contemplating selling a Samsung Galaxy S22 and are thinking about repairing the screen to fetch a higher price for your device, the cost can be substantial, ranging around £180. Similarly, changing your iPhone 13 screen could be approximately £140. This represents a considerable expense for a phone you intend to sell and might not be a financially prudent decision in the context of selling your device.
Similar to screens, buttons can also deteriorate over time or become damaged due to mishandling. For example, the volume buttons on iPhones serve multiple functions beyond just adjusting the volume; they can also open the camera and be customised to launch specific apps on your phone. This makes them crucial for iPhone users, and having them in proper working order is essential. The cost of replacing a volume button varies depending on your device model. If you're planning to sell an iPhone, the expense of replacing a malfunctioning button could go up to £50.
Unlike the cost of screen replacement, addressing button issues could be a worthwhile investment to maximise the value of your device. While we offer a starting price of £145 for a faulty iPhone 13, selling your iPhone 13 in good condition could fetch you on average £380. However, it's crucial to always seek the assistance of a genuine iPhone repair expert. We cannot accept devices that lack genuine iPhone parts or have undergone unauthorised tampering.
To maximise the value of your unused phone, the most effective approach is to maintain it in optimal condition. Whether it's through stylish phone cases or robust screen protectors, making a small investment now can shield your device from accidents and the wear and tear of daily use. After all, who wouldn't prefer to avoid hefty repair expenses in the future?
As technology progresses, there are various methods to extend the longevity of your phone's software. When we assess your device, we take into account factors such as battery health. You can adopt several practices to care for your battery, such as opting for a wireless charging phone to mitigate damage to the charging port. The slower charging pace can also positively impact your phone's battery health. These small investments collectively contribute to ensuring you obtain the best value for your device when exchanging it for your next upgrade.
Damage to the camera can be disheartening, especially if your phone takes a tumble while capturing the perfect selfie or slips out of your pocket during a rocky hike. Since smartphones are essential to capture cherished moments and memories, it's important to ensure that the camera is in good condition if you aim to obtain the best value for your phone.
Addressing camera issues can often be more affordable than repairing the screen. Many contemporary smartphone cameras are conveniently located on the front of the phone rather than being intricately integrated into the device, making them not only easier but also more cost-effective to repair, especially compared to older models. If you're considering selling your Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, the cost of a camera replacement might be approximately £100. However, the potential difference in resale value could almost make up for this expense, going from £465 to £550. Therefore, opting to fix your camera could prove to be a worthwhile investment in the long term.
If your device requires some repairs to reach its optimal conditions and, after obtaining an online quote, you realise that choosing a reputable repair shop might be a bit pricey, it may be tempting to try to ask around and turn to someone cheaper that could take care of them. When shopping around for the best price, though, be aware of possible non-authentic phone repair professionals and of DIY tutorials.
While there is a wealth of valuable information online, the potential for mishaps is considerable, and what starts as a simple repair might result in the loss of your device. Therefore, if you're considering phone repairs, always ensure you choose a genuine repair shop, especially when dealing with iPhones.
So, there you have it! Safeguarding your smartphone, embracing the wireless charging trend, and extending your mobile's lifespan—these are all essential components for the ultimate tech-savvy lifestyle.
