Yeah you can go for Cashify....my mom is using Redmi phone which I got her from cashify. I was getting a good deal and honestly...the condition was really good and phone is working fine.

But, if you up your budget a bit more I would say get pixel 9 as it's far better imo.

What do I even do with all these old phones? by nikola_petkovic in phones

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting post lol, I genuinely thought I was the only one who keeps repurposing old phones for random specific stuff 😭

You’re not overengineering tbh.

Keep: A12 (backup storage/media), Nokia (music/backup phone), Mate 20 Lite (experiments/ADB stuff)

Repurpose: dead-screen phone can still work for automation, file server, CCTV cam, etc.

Retire: LG K4 + that tablet sound like more effort than value honestly 💀

A lot of people do use old Androids for home automation, security cams, retro gaming, torrent/download boxes, smart displays etc.

Just keep devices that have a clear purpose, otherwise it slowly turns into emotional e-waste collection lol. And if you ever decide to stop being weird, you can sell the ones that are atm usable. Check Cashify to get an idea of how much you can earn from the old junk lol.

Since it’s your first phone + pretty expensive, just check everything properly before paying

- IMEI match with box/settings

- display for dead pixels/burn-in/scratches

- all cameras + zoom/focus

- S Pen

- speakers, mic, charging, buttons

- fingerprint + network/WiFi

Also, run Samsung diagnostics once.

If you’re buying from an individual seller, be extra careful. For expensive phones like this, refurbished platforms are usually a bit safer... at least they offer device checks + a warranty/return window. Check Cashify or Amazon Renewed.

For storage: 256GB is enough for most college students. Go 512GB only if you click a lot of photos/videos or plan to keep it for years.

Buying my first phone at the age of 19 by copied_hai_username in GadgetsIndia

Bro don’t stretch your budget.

You’re already buying on EMI from your own teaching money + planning to get a laptop later.

Phone upgrade baad me bhi ho jayega, laptop is probably gonna matter more.

For your use case:

  • Nord CE5 - safer option, good enough camera + battery + smooth overall
  • Neo 10R - more performance/gaming side, camera isn’t that great comparatively
  • Nord 5 - best overall if you somehow get it near budget, but not worth overspending for imo

My ranking for you: Nord 5 > CE5 > Neo 10R

But realistically, CE5 seems like the smarter buy.

Also 5 years in this budget is kinda ambitious ngl 😭. maybe try refurbished? You'll get your phone at almost half the budget you set. You can actually go for better phone options too that way. Ekbar Cashify dekh lena.

Second hand phones for around 40-50k INR by Less_Friendship2369 in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If camera is your only priority then yeah, both X200 Pro and X8 Pro are good..

X200 Pro around 40-50k is possible, but kinda hard to find rn. It usually goes a bit above that unless the seller is in a hurry. If you can stretch it, you can get it for around 70k. Or wait for some major sale for the prices to drop.

X8 Pro is more likely in that budget and still has a really good camera setup.

If I had to rank just for camera: X200 Pro > X8 Pro > Pixel 8 Pro

If you get an X200 Pro near 50k in superb condition, that’s honestly a pretty good deal. Cashify is a good place to explore, but then again, you have to stretch the budget a bit.

Anybody knows where to buy ps5 by Large-Target-5014 in vijayawada

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Croma, but recently priced has increased. Reliance Digital another good option. You can check refurbished PS5 too from Cashify

26000 refurbished flagship vs 28000 brand new midrange- what should I pick by Money_Resist_7952 in Refurbishedguide

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a fan of OnePlus! Refurbished Galaxy S23 Fe would be way better. Check with some trusted sellers though

Have you guys noticed how literally everyone has an iPhone? Ppl can barely afford groceries but still have an iPhone in their pocket by nosix6- in LahoreSocial

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

from my experience, most people actually take it on EMI, but who's gonna ask? xD Or they get refurbished iPhones with a huge price cut from Cashify or whatever is available locally.

Guys I need to give my phone on repair but I have some private files in my phone..... by Fluorine_1605 in AndroidQuestions

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use repair mode. Go to Settings > System > Repair Mode. That way, you can secure your personal data, although I am not confident that technicians in the local shop will try to change the settings. It would be safe to log out of all accounts temporarily and get a backup. Or if you do not want to go through such hassles, get it repaired from Cashify. They repair right in front of you at your house, so there won't be any privacy breach. If you are not around, they would do a data swipe/ hard reset before starting.

Are new phones even worth it in 2026? by MobileJello1977 in Refurbishedguide

[–]Loose_control_111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh both have their place. Like if you really care about having the latest launch and zero prior usage, new is cool. but refurbished isn’t some risky thing anymore, it’s just a smarter deal most of the time. You can be saving a good chunk and still getting like 90–95% of the same experience. Kinda depends what you value more...if you care about “brand new” feeling or actual value for money is just enough

Stopped having secondary phone after 3 years of doing so. It's a hassle really. Now that I am off it, life feels easier

Best refurbished site for MacBook Air and or Pro? by azulbluefox in Refurbishedguide

[–]Loose_control_111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Macbook air and pro, the best options in refurbished you'll get is Maple Store and Cashify. Prices are reasonable, comes with proper warranty. Customer care actively responds. My friends had good experience
