its choice bro, but aside some vital points above, i won't say their devices aren't good, depending on what you need and your budget... but generally this company has been reported and proved to be collecting user data anonymously and sending it to their servers in various location,this is to tell you that your privacy isn't assured but if you're the type that doesnt values privacy much and loves face values i don't see where you have issues... though your data are secured with base64 and obviously base64 is very weak.
That's not a reason, cos Huawei, Iphone, does that and they still sell their phones, so stop coming here speaking french

Why will a user sell of their device within weeks or even a few months of getting it?
upgrade? that's not tenable, because if it's that good, there's no reason for upgrade within a short period.
financial reason? well may be.
try out another brand within a short period? that's a negative score/ point.

Some users change phones once a new one comes out, irrespective of if new one they getting is an upgrade or not provided the device is a solid one.

There are people out there who try out phones from other brands before they decide to settle for one. I know this cos I got a friend who used to change phones every 1-2 months before he finally settled for an iPhone 8+.

Besides there are sometimes cheaper, solid offerings every year (this year is the iqoo neo 3, iqoo z1 and others not listed under 400 dollars). This is enough to encourage people to sell their current device so they can get it. If they happy, they'd settle for it. If not, they keep flipping brands till they find "the one".

still, no tenable reason to sell a "good phone" within short period of time, it's either just a hype or doesn't meet people's imagination. in other words, xiaomi note 7/8, is just another phone.

Some Xiaomi users are selling their phones? How's that a problem?

Go on jiji, the brands with highest number of sellers are IPhone and Samsung respectively, followed by Tecno and Infinix. How's that a pointer to the quality of phone? People sell their phones for several reasons ranging from financal constraint, upgrade to switching of brands.

Posit a better argument cos this one holds no water abeg. I use a xiaomi device and I can confidently tell you it's the best phone I've used.

.

Lol, I asked for reasons without mentioning any brand... tecno and infinix are wack, it's common knowledge, samsung are expensive to maintain/repair, plus their shitty battery, hence, most users, sell after spending so much on repairs and don't want to go through the same process again, as for iphone, most sellers are first timers, who realized iphone is not the toy they'd wanted (as users can't enjoy the ease of getting apps and tweak, unlike the android) otherwise most users sells 3-5 series downward, but xiaomi note 7/8? even a few weeks user sells too often, why if the phone is that good and get recommendation? or is it a case of Bebe, hype but no substance?

LoL. The phones are good. Why don't you just ask those selling their Redmi Note 7&8 why they want to sell it and save yourself this tepid display of ignorance?

Whether Xiaomi or Samsung or iPhone or Transsion, human wants are insatiable and people generally have a knack for owning or trying to own latest products...

Again, whenever you see a thread with someone wanting to sell his/her/it Xiaomi phone, politely ask the person directly why he/she/it is selling it. You'll get your answer from the source --- horse; horse's mouth!

MODIFIED: I just checked your profile and see you're doting on Xiaomi/Redmi. LOL. This serial-killer level stalking though.

You're missing your own point. Whether people or God himself gives you a million reasons, you'd still doubt that. If you need tenable reasons go to YouTube and watch review videos and comparison videos and not just going round-around on Nairaland.

I use a Xiaomi device (RN8) and so far, it's been good. Not perfect, but good. I'm already thinking of upgrading to another Xiaomi device not because this one is bad but because of course, there are tons of better offerings.

I don't have answers? What age is this again? You seriously need people to convince you to buy something? LOL! It's your money. It's your action. Buy the hype or look for another hype to buy. The fact remains that OEMs are churning out thousands of products monthly and it's overwhelming... You'll always want more even if you've enough with you.

If people give you reasons why Xiaomi is a good brand, you'd still call it "hype" so who has time for babysitting? Row with it, mate!

MODIFIED: Aye, this is an economics class and life is a philosophical society so wake up!

the fact is, xiaomi is just another brand, and 7a/8a/note 7/8, are just another phones.

What are tenable reasons to sell a good phone within a short period of time, aside financial reason?

See lets be guided please. I bought redmi note 7 November, redmi note 8 came out late November. Me wanting to now sell my note 7 to get note 8 pro doesn't mean the note 7 is bad but I wanted to upgrade.

Xiaomi releases phones frequently. They released redmi note 9 last 2 months. Someone who bought redmi note 8 January might want to upgrade to 9, hence the need to sell the phone. Very soon redmi note 10 will be out and the cycle begins again.

Before you speak, do a little bit of research. It's the same reasons iPhone users sell their phones to get the latest one. Obviously there are other reasons why this could happen but this is a very likely reason for the sale.

Lastly buying a Xiaomi phone isn't a must, you can get whatever phone brand you want.

It's not the same reasons most iphone users sell their phones, you don't see users coming here to hawk iphone x, like recent redmi, the ones you see often atm is iphone 6, and that's like 5th series downward.

See don't buy xiaomi, I have said it b4 and I will say it again. Nobody will kill you. Buy what you want let others buy what they want.

And ps I have several friends who have changed their iPhones just to get the latest one. And no they weren't using iPhone 6 or whatever.

LOL. As in!

What he wants to hear is that the phones aren't good enough and people sell them off to get other brands. It's obvious. The word "hype" is enough to see his intent.
