I've noticed a tricky growing trend in parts of Africa, pre-owned Samsung smartphones are a popular and affordable option — offering flagship features without the flagship price. But not all used devices are equal.

✅ Pros:
- It is value for money, you can get a flagship for the price of a midrange🤑
- Most pre-owned devices are graded in South Africa(Always go for A+ or B worst case scenario👂)
- You are able to get a device with slightly more storage.
⚠️ Cons:
- Some functions might not be working.
- Some sellers do not offer warranty (Do not buy from these ones)
- Some devices might have worn batteries or non manufacture displays that might not work well.
- Risk of buying a clone (Device that looks like the original but isn't)
If you're in South Africa and would like a pre-owned devices let me know and I'll refer you to reputable pre-owned sellers💯
🔍 Tip: Always check IMEI, inspect for damage, and buy from trusted sellers.

Sure thing, you can check the imei using https://www.imei.info/ to see if it's genuine and not counterfeit... simply type in the imei and press check and it will show you device model and other specs of your particular device
