I think should be OK to trade in, just that they may pay you lesser than what you expect. Anyways, no harm trying.

Also I pre order at the stores, walk in, free sd card 64gb.

Dunno got trade in or not, but salesgirl says got lah.

Yea, I still remember during S7Edge pre-order time, it sold out within 30 minutes. Then it come with another 2nd round of pre-order with less discount and lower capacity of memory card.
*
Yep, first 20% discount with 128GB Sd card and extra 1 year warranty sold out in 1 hour, first 1000 unit i think, flooded Samsung server.

Then comes 15% discount and 64gb sd card.

Accidental touch only applies until s7edge. Note7 until now its fine alrdy.

Android or Samsung software is messy. Instead of making live simpler, spend time playing phone like a nerd.

And what's the point of having so much storage if not to keep stuff ?

Aiyo, go back to use ur iPhone X la, if Android wasn't good for u.

It's all depend on the staff/branch who handle your trade in. The stingy one will check your phone thoroughly and try very hard to find the defects. While the easy going one will simply accept your phone without a glimpse. I personally traded in Samsung phones couple of times before.  At one time, the phone's screen got a minor scratch and the touch sensitivity is a bit cacat. Of course I didn't tell the staff about it in advance lah. I just let him check without telling him anything about the defects. Surprisingly the staff just took it without asking any questions. He didn't even care to test the phone. The trade in went very smooth. But that's 2 years ago lah. Now may be they have became stricter. If your phone condition is very good and near to perfect, just go ahead. But if your phone got defects, just keep quiet.  Let the staff find it by himself. May be the staff won't be able to notice it at all. You don't say, nobody know.

May be some people may say this is a bit unethical. But hey, business is business. After all, it's not your responsibility to inform them the issue. It's their job to check and test the phone. If it succeeded, then you are a happy man. If you failed, then you got nothing to lose. No harm to try right.

Anyway, based on my experience, before you go to trade-in, make sure you test drive your phone first, by entering the secret mode *#0*#. If all functions working, then you are good to go. As long as your phone has no dent, screen no broken, body no peeling, no screen burn-in, the staff will gladly accept your phone with maximum pay back value. Most of the time they won't mind the minor scratch since those scratches are very hard to notice.

Oh and one more thing, make sure you reset your phone before trade in. Just to ensure your phone is running at optimum status (without slowing down by any third party software interference), just in case the staff may use this as an excuse to reject you.

Hope my advices can help. biggrin.gif

Thanks, that helps a lot. biggrin.gif thumbup.gif

My home button paint is peeling and the frame got dent a little, screen, touch and glass is perfectly fine, got some tiny scratches which myself wont even notice.

From what I've seen at Samsung website,

QUOTE
Grade B

All parts of trade-in device are in good working conditions, SAVE AND EXCEPT the following conditions are allowed:
• Housing - Dent/Peeling

• Home Button - Scratches/Peeling,

Less 20% off Residual Value Trade In Price
I think my device might get 20% off the max value which is RM1080.

Just kinda afraid got some very lansi staff that straight away reject my phone without even checking. Then gg lo, need fork out more money to buy S9.

But I when I went there the salesgirl says my phone protect kinda good, then she called and ask her manager about the trade in program, and she personally says can trade in lah.

Also I pre-order s9 at the store.

Well, there is not only one Samsung store out there right? If you failed, then go another store and try again. Try few times, sure one of them will accept. But since your is pre-order unit, you only have one chance, then I guess you need some lucks on this. Anyway, since the salesgirls already approved, then you find her lah when you go to collect your phone. biggrin.gif

Yalo, just go and find her since she sells me, just kinda worry later her manager pattern a lot jer.

Only got 1 chance at that shop cuz pre-order at there.

U pre-order at the Samsung store itself? I went to the Samsung Store at my area, they told me that I need to do the process online and trade in program not eligible for pre order. It is either pre order or trade in cannot be both. That why I give up on pre order since I want to trade in my S7e to get S9+
*
Before i pre-order i ask can trade in or not first. Then she says yes can.

The salesgirl told me that when pre-order online, u only get speaker, if u pre-order here, u get the speaker + free 64gb sd card, so i say ok lo, good also.


When u pre-order online, u can tick the I'm interested to trade-in program.
