We all want the most exotic phones but fingers are not equal. However, some of us want flagships so bad that we prefer to buy them used instead of going for new mid rangers. This usually comes with few shortcomings like poor battery performance, some little defects, etc. However, new mid range phones are getting better these days especially with new companies offering competitive prices, now I'm having a rethink. Are used flagships worth buying?

It's expected for used phones, to have one fault or the other........

Remember, the previous owner used it for between 18/24 months, upgraded and sold it off....

It's a buyers market....... Brand new mid ranger or used flagships....... Tear rubber or tokunbo.... Buyer decides.......

Exactly, I had to manage 32gb on my og pixel... 128gb is usually available tho, if you get d money

Very true. But how many people are tech inclined? The camera usually bailed me out then anyways. People won't understand what you have until you take a photo of them or they see your gallery.

Opt for a
Pixel 3xl
OnePlus 6t-7
Xiaomi Mi9 or mi9t Pro
There's a pixel 3xl for 120 on technology thread by Emmanuelugo
There's a OnePlus 6t for 115 by bobo65
And a Mi9 for 120 by me...
All at good prices

US or UK used flagship (if it has SD 855/855+) over current midrangers.

A UK used flagship like Samsung Galaxy s8 and s9 is better than all these new mid rangers. S8 is three years old but still a beast. 2K super amoled display, great primary and secondary cameras, retina scanner, 4GB RAM, 64 GB internal memory, MicroSD card slot. Great battery life. Exynos 8895 chipset, etc.

Don't waste your money in a new chinese mid ranger because none of them can beat s8 specs and performance wise.
