The prices of phone fluctuates a lot, he needs to be patient. As it is the prices of redmi 5 plus and note 5 dey crash daily, so to sell used ones sef dey hard if it's not priced aggressively.

I am also using d fone.. I bought mine wen price crashed a little wif chinese rom installed on it but if i wan sell am nw, i will never put a price tag close to a new one provided d listing is on nairaland...

There's nothing wrong about my analysis bro. How u perceive size in your hands is relative to individuals...
The redmi 5 plus is bigger relative to size... Redmi note 4(151 x 76 x 8.5 mm (5.94 x 2.99 x 0.33 in) vs redmi 5 plus(158.5 x 75.5 x 8.1 mm (6.24 x 2.97 x 0.32 in).. And also heavier.
The redmi 5 is almost as same size to the redmi note 4...redmi note 4(151 x 76 x 8.5 mm (5.94 x 2.99 x 0.33 in) vs redmi 5(151.8 x 72.8 x 7.7 mm (5.98 x 2.87 x 0.30 in).... So i don't see what is wrong about my analysis.

What you're doing is explaining your bias in clear terms grin

The perfect size of phone for me is a little smaller than the Redmi 5. If i could build a phone, the Nokia X6 and Samsung S8/S9 would be the perfect size for me(biased) just cause i don't fall into the popular crowd. I prefer the weight under 170g too.

As much as I love Xiaomi Redmi phones, I have to admit you're right. IPhones and even Samsung phones have high second-hand value compared to Xiaomi. Partly because Xiaomi is not as popular as they are. When average people on the streets ask me what phone do I use and I say Xiaomi phone, they look at me like I'm using a phone made by aliens. Only few people understand and appreciate the value of Xiaomi phones, hence relative difficulty in resale value. Another reason is that those who purchase Redmi phones are people who are looking for the best value for money, low price and high specs, so don't be surprised if they price your phone way below it's true value. On the other hand, iPhone and Samsung users and buyers are people not only appreciate quality but can afford quality at high prices.

Samsung and iPhone cannot be grouped together when it comes to second hand value. I still sold new-ish review unit J7 Prime for 45K 2 months ago. Samsung doesn't have resale value like iPhone. First of all the S8 is now 179K for a brand new one. If the new one is dropping anyhow, forget about selling at 50%+ from the price as at when you got it.

In comparison, the cheapest iPhone 7(32GB) i found on Jumia is 188K

Oga leave matter. I can get you an iPhone X for less than 50k in New Benin right now with receipt sef undecided

It all depends on your target market. If you take your phone to the streets, you'll get it priced at a 'street price'.
