My concern is about the battery life of these second-hand devices than anything else, some secondhand phones nowadays are basically unusable if the battery has so much wear and tear that it only lasts 2-3 hours of use.

can get it replaced for $50, totally worth a few hundred dollar discount.

Gotta check the battery info from a respectable seller.

Mine had a guarantee of 90% of the battery function...was it compared to a new, unused phone of itself (can't remember). I don't remember how good my previous phone's battery was in the beginning, or any before that, but this current phone had an awesome battery life! (I try to keep the battery between 20-80% to give the battery more life)
