What To Do with Your Old iPhone
Do you like this story?
No
matter how great it is when we first buy it, all technology comes to an end.
Whether it ceases to be useful, gets replaced, becomes unusable or we simply
otherwise no longer want it, there are very few pieces of technology, if any at
all, that we keep for long.
This
is certainly true for mobile phones. Even your iPhone will inevitably reach a
point where you're looking to replace it. Of course, this in turn presents you
with financial, and other, considerations. This introduces some of the bigger
questions you need to ask yourself, such as “what to do with my old phone?” and
“where to sell my iphone?”
To
this end, here are some answers to hopefully show the best way to dispose of
your unwanted iPhone.
Sell Online
The
easiest and most convenient method of selling your iPhone is to simply head
online and see what your phone can get. Selling online is highly convenient. In
addition to the money offered for your device, being able to sell from the
comfort of your own home ensures that, no matter what time of day, you can get
it done.
This
means there's really no excuse; even the most busy and hectic of lifestyles can
find a few minutes to sit down and price up your old device. It’s a quick and
effective way to convert your old iPhone into cash; something that is always
appreciated and can be put to good use.
The
major benefit of selling online, beside from the sheer ease and convenience is
that it gives you access to those who would buy your phone for recycling. This
makes it easier to sell any phone, including earlier generation iPhones that
would otherwise be worth less as a second-hand device. This results in you
getting a better price for your phone than what you'll potentially get offered
on the high street, offering another reason to take a few minutes and have a
look online.
Why Recycling?
So
why is recycling such a big advantage? The main reason is in the perceived
value of your iPhone. Like a retailer, you likely don't want it because its
unusable or an outdated model. In this view, the value of the phone has greatly
diminished.
As
a recyclable resource, however, the iPhone still has all the valuable
materials, such as gold, copper, coltan and zinc, inside that make the phone
desirable in parts and resources. This value doesn't fluctuate or drop in
popularity, nor does it have to compete with more desirable, newer iPhones. The
constant churning of technology puts a steady demand on recycling. As such, you
always have somewhere to go with your old device.
Of
course, there are the environmental factors and benefits too. Combined with the
higher value, this presents the best way to get rid of your iPhone. You don't
want it, so selling it on for cash is always an advantage; doing so whilst
further helping the environment is an additional comfort and peace of mind.
