Older Samsung Galaxy phones retain significant resale value

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Older Samsung Galaxy phones can still be worth hundreds of dollars, though selling directly to consumers yields significantly more than trade-in or buyback services. For example, a Galaxy S23 Ultra might sell for around $481 privately, compared to a buyback offer of $291. Samsung has increased the price of its new flagship models, making used devices a more attractive option, especially considering the extended software update promises for newer series like the S24, which will receive support until early 2031.
