buying second hand phones is like buying clothes with a hole in it. your going to have to replace the battery or the phone alot sooner than buying it new
Batteries are good now though. I buy almost all used tech where possible. No complaints. If you get a sufficiently new used phone, it's not physically possible for the battery to have undergone enough cycles to degrade noticably. Very good value early on I'd say.
ive boughten used phones and had opposite experiences. the batteries were severely degraded
