Does It Make Any Sense To Buy Brand New Gadgets These Days? by Nobody: 5:30pm On Jul 22, 2016
Let's face reality, things are hard these days. I just checked the price of infinix note 2 only to discover that the price on jumia is 39k, this was the same phone that sold for 27k on jumia last year November. It's not like I can't afford 39k for the phone but I know this 1gb ram phone is not worth it. By the way, I've never used a phone up to one year in my life whether brand new or not so what's the point? I ask myself, why suffer for the incompetence of policy makers with my hard earned money when I can get fairly used for cheaper? Please enlighten me

Yea it is better to buy a brand new one cause I don't know what has happened to the used one u want to purchase the problems there and how bad the phone is damaged u may even spend more than the amount that can buy a new one

Also consider the danger in buying a stolen used phone...

If u wanna get a fairly used phone, den buy it from a reliable source, that is from a store with guarantee and warranty or from someone u know. And also u have a point, since u don't use phones for long, its not worth it to get a new one, waste of resources.

thanks, I'm happy you really understand my point. With the way these people are churning out new models of phones every week, it's not easy for one to use a phone for a year and not feel out dated.
