The Note 5 and S7E value quite close to market value for devices over warranty. Good for those who don't wanna deal with low ballers.

How much one (S8+) can sell with screen cracked phone? My friend's S8+ cracked not because of dropped. So the body is still good with no crack/scratch. Still can touch just cracked. So because of this, the phone is out of warranty automatically even there is a problem internally. I asked him to sell, don't bother to repair as the phone cost will be much higher while 2nd hand unit is getting cheaper.

How does it crack without dropping? Curious..

Unlucky for my friend, he put it inside the bag. The bag put it on his bike's cage. Put another bag with more than 15KG up top. The bag's steel-button was on top of the phone. Hence the crack. If there is no steel button then it won't crack even put 20KG pressure.

Ouch, Ok, that is painful.

Anyways, I think a fair value for your friend's unit would be the current second hand price minus estimated repair cost of the phone. Anything lower than that then surely can sell, he he...

Is this the lowest price currently?

If you manage to download one of the Tech Hacks voucher from Qoo10 for 500 then you can get one for about 25xx.

maybe

1. rich guy, buy to play, then sell it.

2. fail person, buy something not afford, then suddenly need money, sell it.

3. buy using CC installment, end up unable to pay installment, sell it for cash.

4. unable to sell, so sell cheaper.

5. etc
*
That's not really the case. The problem is online websites like Qoo10 are selling new S8/S8+ for massive discounts so people selling second hand are massively affected.

Thats the thing. I really regret I preordered my S8+ at full price now. My friend got it at slightly less than Rm3k not long after launch. Makes me think twice if I would still preorder the Note 8. sweat.gif
*
Ya, I got my S8 for 2785 on Qoo10 two or three weeks after the pre-order. Madness.

Pre-orders are usually the fans. They don't really care about price, just want to be amongst the first to own the device.

Hmm.... it seems also many people selling their s8/s8+
Wondering the reason behind...

There's really no reason so don't need to think too much bro. The S8 and S8+ are good phones no doubt, but some people buy phones, try, then sell. Mad fellas. Like me.

Sold my S8 and went back to iPhone. Guess I'll return to Samsung with Note 8!

I'm waiting for the Note 8 too though I doubt I would pre-order unless there was some sort of discount!

Trust me bro, I have been a Samsung fag long enough. TW is really optimised right now compared to last time. But it's fluidity is still not close to pure vanilla android yet. Period.
*
I had the HTC U11 for a bit after the S8. It was far smoother. Not sure if it was the 6GB RAM or the UI. But yes, TW has come a long way.

Yeah, the worst kept secret is out. I bought my S8 from Qoo10 too. At this point it's really hard to consider pre-ordering a Note 8, tempted as I may be...
