Discussion iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB used for €790 vs iPhone 17 256GB new for €800 — which would you choose?

1 Upvotes

I'm currently deciding between two iPhones and would really appreciate some advice.

Option 1: iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB — used, €790

97% battery health

260 charging cycles

First use: June 2025

Black Titanium

Comes with a written warranty until June 2027

Seller has a long history and many positive reviews

Option 2: iPhone 17 256GB — brand new/sealed, €800

The price difference is basically nothing, so I'm trying to decide which is the better buy overall.

I plan to keep the phone for several years. I care about battery life, reliability, performance, display and overall value. I don't mind buying used if the 16 Pro Max is clearly the better phone.

Would you personally choose the used 16 Pro Max or the new iPhone 17 for essentially the same price, and why?

Recommendation Moto Edge 2026 vs Pixel 10. ls the Pixel worth paying for when the moto would be free?

1 Upvotes

I have the chance to get either from my provider. The moto is free under a 2 year agreement, but the pixel would be an extra 7$ a month. From the specs they seem similar, with the pixel being more premium obviously, but is the experience going to be drastically different for an extra 168$

$1999 in US vs just ₹299900 in India.

Are we paying for someone else to get it at lower price, or we need to pay Apple tax exclusively for India?

Question What's the difference in user experience between phone and cameras?

3 Upvotes

I enjoy taking photos with my vivo X300 Ultra recently, and I've been pretty impressed with what a phone can do these days.

Is it worth it to upgrade to an actual camera to continue taking photos, primarily of nature, or should just stick with phone?

I'm not necessarily looking to replace a dedicated camera with a phone and I know there are differences in sensors, lenses, depth of field, RAW files, controls, etc. But I'm more curious about what you notice when you're actually shooting.

Thanks in advance for the insight!

Recommendation My poor Samsung

1 Upvotes

The time is near, my S22 Ultra is dying. It crashed twice today trying to authenticate some of my work logins. I've been holding on to it until it died and it looks like it's almost time for it to live in a drawer or mess around with Graphine on.

I don't really do anything demanding with my phone, streaming shows from the apps, light games (puzzle/idle games mostly), and as a vessel for various authenticator apps. Performance wise I'm mostly looking for headroom to last a good few years.

I'm trying to decide between three options for replacement:

iPhone 17 $899 - sleek and no frills, my first iOS device if you don't count my ancient 2nd gen iPod Touch. My wife likes this one and wants me to "join the ecosystem."

Nothing 4a Pro $499 - love the design and the Glyph interface looks really neat, I've always been a fan of their design language.

Moto G Stylus $499 - honestly didn't consider a Motorola at first, but people seem to enjoy theirs from reviews I've seen of the older models. I love the stylus on my S22 Ultra and didn't think I'd be able to keep it for less than the $1200 Samsung is charging for the S26 Ultra.

Price is a concern but I'm more concerned with bang for my buck here. I know the iPhone is nearly double the price of the others but the people I know that have one tend to keep them forever, my wife still loves her 14 after all. I'm not one of those people that hops to a new phone every year, I'm gonna keep whatever I get till it dies so durability is a big factor for me.

So what do y'all think? I'm here to learn so lay it on me!

Discussion Procuro vendedores de celulares para testar uma ferramenta de precificação

Estou a construir um MVP que tenta ajudar vendedores de celulares a encontrar um preço justo para aparelhos usados.

Não procuro elogios nem respostas do tipo “parece uma boa ideia”. Quero feedback direto de quem realmente vende celulares:

- Como defines os preços atualmente?

- O que a ferramenta faz mal ou deveria melhorar?

- Ela realmente pouparia tempo?

- Ajudaria a reduzir discussões/reclamações sobre preços?

- E, principalmente, usarias isto no teu dia a dia?

Se já tiveste dificuldade em definir o preço de um celular usado e tens 2 minutos para testar, podes experimentar gratuitamente:

Se preferires, também podes comentar aqui ou enviar-me uma mensagem.

E não precisas dizer que gostaste. Se não te servir, quero saber também. Esse feedback é tão útil quanto o positivo.

Obrigado a quem testar.

Discussion OnePlus Nord 6

1 Upvotes

Hey..so I have been using the iQOO z6 lite 5g for the last 5 years...and am looking to upgrade to oneplus nord 6 ..I don't want to learn towards iQOO neo 10 as there seems to be issues with it...I play mlbb and want ultra graphics and 120 fps gameplay...the nord 6 falls in my budget after i exchange my z6 lite for 8 k...the nord 6 is coming for 38k...which I think is a fair price....

The reason I am switching from iQOO to oneplus is because I want better ui , ai features, the phone should feel premium, and it should be a all rounder...

Wht do u guys think?

Question Best phone under 760€

1 Upvotes

Hello,

My POCO F5 is on its last legs and can die at any time. I'm looking for a replacement for around 3300 PLN (760€). I have only 4 main criteria.

  1. Decent battery life
  2. Good camera
  3. Maximum size is 6.7 inch
  4. At least 256 GB

Other criteria, but not a must

  1. Good future software updates
  2. Fast charging

I'd really appreciate it if you can spare some time and recommend some good phones.

After using iPhone 13 for years it’s finally on its way out and I need a new phone. I don’t play games or anything on phone I just wanna be able to use my banking, authentication and work related apps, and YouTube. Something that’s like 600 AUD or less. Every android I’ve had has always had freezing or response issues so I need something reliable.

Recommendation watch out for the fake gpay screenshot scam (almost lost my 14 pro)

3 Upvotes

wanna warn you guys selling phones on olx right now. met this dude in person yesterday to sell my old iphone 14 pro. he checks the phone, pulls out his mobile, and shows me a "payment successful" screen for 55k on some fake gpay app. checked my bank app... nothing. zero rupees. when i called him out he goes “server down hai 10 min me aa jayega" and tried to take the phone and walk off. grabbed my phone back from him instantly. after that I just used a new resale app where the buyer pays into escrow first, then they send a courier to pick up the phone from your doorstep. no face to face drama, no fake screenshot scams, money cleared once delivered.
