Looking for a good second Hand Smartphone - which one to choose?

[Bakwan]

Hello Community

 

I am looking for a good second Hand Smartphone for around 2000 Baht.

 

I am using a Sony Xperia for the Moment, but I have several smaller technical Issues with it !

 

Which Brand - beside an Iphone - you would recommend and in which Shop in Pattaya

to look for?

I would never buy second hand here, too many variables and too many things that can go wrong.  Amazon in the UK, sure, my own phone was bought from that retailer, but in Thailand, always buy new would be my advice.

I'd pay a bit more and get a Redmi 8 ...... 2,940bht new.

I bought cheap phone from Lazada a month ago - packed up after 3 weeks

 

Sellers listing says 1 year warranty - tried to return it and he is refusing saying it is 7 days return - contacted Lazada CS and I am waiting for a outcome

Redmi/Asus/Huawei have service centres in Thailand,

1 year guarantee is nearly always from manufacturer, not the seller, I only buy phones I can get repaired easily.

(I'm a bit of a screen smasher, and also like to replace batteries)

 

Huawei are really easy as they have service counters in all the AIS stores, but a bit more expensive to buy.

Just buy a cheap new phone ....  never second hand.

it seem they come in 2/3/4 GB RAM, i would buy the 4 GB RAM if i didnt have economy for more,

but never any less RAM, been there at insufficient memory and never again
