What affects your Galaxy J7 (2017) trade in price?
Two of the same model can be worth very different amounts. These are the things that matter most.
Account lock
Google's Factory Reset Protection must be off. Remove your Google account (and Samsung account on Galaxy phones) before you post it.
The screen
Cracks, screen burn, lines or dead pixels lower the price.
The body
Small marks are normal. Dents, a bent frame or cracked back glass lower the offer.
Battery
A battery that drains fast or swells reduces the value.
Network lock
An unlocked phone is worth more.
Faults
Problems with the fingerprint sensor, cameras, speakers, buttons, charging port or S Pen (on models that have one) all change the price.
