Looking for quality second-hand Samsung and Apple devices? Look no further than CompAsia

This post is brought to you by CompAsia.

At the pace consumer electronics is advancing, there is always a new smartphone model released annually with upgraded specs, but Instagram and YouTube perform just about the same as they did on the previous model or the one before.

So say you’re faced with the decision of buying a flagship smartphone that’s a year or two old or getting a brand-new mid-range smartphone for around the same price. Which one would you choose?

Most older flagship phones not only offer great everyday performance for casual use like scrolling through social media, using food delivery apps, and text messaging, but many of them can still perform demanding tasks. Moreover, smartphone manufacturers are committing to more years of software support, with Samsung and Google announcing 7 years of updates on their flagship devices.

One of the challenges when buying second-hand mobile devices is ensuring that you’re getting a quality product that’s functional and in good condition. As such, CompAsia is offering second-hand mobile devices, gadgets and accessories that have undergone a 32-step quality check by qualified technicians and graded by them.

32-step Quality Check

Devices that come into CompAsia go through a 32-step quality check by qualified technicians following industry gold standard practices to assess functionality and condition. Hardware components like camera, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, speakers, charging port, microphone, and screen sensitivity are tested while the battery is evaluated to ensure more than 80% health remains.

During this process, the devices are given a cosmetic grading of As-new, Excellent, Good, or Fair depending on the amount of wear. Even though there are differences in cosmetic condition, devices in all four grading categories are fully functional.

In the case of As-new devices, they are in flawless condition and come in their original box, complete with accessories and a 12-month warranty, just like buying a brand-new device.

Sell or trade in your device

To trade in or sell your used devices, all you need to do is download the CompAsia app from the Apple App Store or Google PlayStore and start the hassle-free process. The app will help you set up everything, from the initial registration to device pick-up.

For devices that cannot download the app such as smartwatches, laptops, etc, you can either contact customer support or walk into their retail store for assistance.

Device Care

For greater peace of mind, CompAsia provides customers with a complimentary 1-month warranty with the option of extending it to 6 or 12 months when purchasing the device. During the warranty period, any manufacturer defects which are not caused by external factors will be sorted out at no additional cost.

Instead of the Extended Warranty, you also have the option of purchasing the Replace Plus service. Choose between a 6-month or 12-month plan, and if anything were to happen to your device within the stipulated period, you are entitled to a free replacement with a like-for-like device, no questions asked.

ReNew+ your next device with CompAsia

Financing your purchase with CompAsia is easy. You can choose either to use a Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) service such as PayLater by Grab or SPay Later, pay with credit cards or use CompAsia’s financing service called ReNew+ Instalment.
