Twelve factors decide what a used phone sells for, and condition is only one of them. What buyers actually pay for, ranked by how much it moves the price.
Phone values drop in steps, not curves. Where the cliffs are, why iPhones hold value longer than most Androids, and how the gap has narrowed since 2024.
Condition grades aren't standardised, which is why the same phone is Grade A on one site and Grade B on another. How to read them and grade yours fairly.
Exact menu paths for iPhone, Pixel, and Samsung, what the percentages mean, and why a used phone reading 100% is sometimes the biggest warning sign of all.
