According to an analysis carried out by the second-hand goods trading platform, Milanuncios , the iPhone is the most sought-after and best-selling smartphone among individuals seeking to give their mobile phone a second life. In fact, the number of ads for this legendary Apple product is much higher than that of its direct competition. This is justified both by the great  existing demand and by the desire for  renewal of the users most related to the Cupertino brand.

More than 90,000 iPhone ads on this second-hand platform: The iPhone is the best-selling second-hand smartphone

Technology is one of the most successful categories within these platforms and, within it, smartphones attract the attention of both buyers and sellers. In 2019, this product included the inclusion of  300,000 ads , of which  90,000 ads were on iPhones. Almost a third of the smartphones offered on these websites belong to Apple . The second most offered brand is  Samsung (with 78,500 ads) and  Huawei  (with 33,500 ads). All three are a clear reflection of the current market.

In terms of prices, the average of a second-hand smartphone in Spain stands at  257 euros , a figure that far exceeds Apple smartphones, with an average price of  409 euros . As we said at the beginning of this article, the launch of the company’s new models has a lot to do with this large number of announcements. It is estimated that the supply of old models increases by 88% after the new annual presentation. The price of the second-hand device also does it, it becomes more expensive up to 24%.

This price increase has its logic since, after the new launches, owners who want to renew their iPhone take the opportunity to sell the previous model, which is still very well priced, and thus access the new devices.
