The heat from iPhone 17 and iPhone Air after its launch has created a strong spillover effect in the Vietnamese technology market. Not only in the new device segment, the number of transactions of the iPhone Like New (used device) also increased significantly when users took the opportunity to sell or exchange old devices to upgrade. The abundant supply has led to deep dips in prices, creating a old iPhone fever in October.
The excitement of the used iPhone market shows a more reasonable consumption trend of Vietnamese people: prioritizing practical performance, stability and long-term experience instead of just following the new generation.
With the current price level, owning an old iPhone can both save millions of dong and be a smart choice in the context of the technology market entering its peak.
Many systems have taken advantage of this trend, to bring the opportunity to own an old iPhone at the best price. A representative of Di Dong Viet said: Customers tend to look for old flagship lines because of their strong performance and high-end design, while costs are significantly more economical. This is also the most attractive period of the year when the price of old iPhones is adjusted.
This system has a "old device festival" program, from October 25 to 30, used flagship iPhone models will be adjusted in price at a deep discount.
For example, the old iPhone 13 Pro Max will cost from 13 million VND, down 7.9 million VND compared to the listed price; the old iPhone 14 Pro Max will also cost from 16.79 million VND. Both of these models are suitable for customers who prefer to experience on large screens and powerful configurations.
In addition, other Pro Max and Pro versions also come at attractive prices such as: old iPhone 16 Pro Max priced from 26.39 million VND; old iPhone 15 Pro Max priced from 22.79 million VND or old iPhone 14 Pro priced from 16.19 million VND. In particular, the old iPhone 12 Pro Max is currently only available from 11.39 million VND.
Other systems such as CellphoneS, FPT Shop also have deep discounts on older iPhone models, with models discounted up to 73%. "A cheap used iPhone is now a good suggestion for consumers looking for a quality iPhone at a low cost.
Even though it is an used device, many iPhone models still maintain stable performance and are supported with long-term iOS updates. In addition, the market is also diverse in form, capacity and price, meeting different needs of consumers, shared the CellphoneS homepage.
In addition to competitive prices, the after-sales policy is also a key factor that makes users feel secure when choosing old devices. For example, at a system in Ho Chi Minh City, customers are guaranteed 1 exchange for 1 for 33 days, a 7-day free trial, and can exchange - return - refund even if they no longer need to use it.
In addition, with the " old collection - Innovation" program, users in this system receive an additional subsidy of up to 3 million VND, while the customer's device inspection process is only assessed as external, not unlocking the device, ensuring integrity and transparency. In addition, with the "30 installment payment" program with 0% interest, 0 hidden fees and 0 VND in advance payment, customers will be financially flexible, upgrading equipment becomes easier.
In fact, the iPhone Like New is still a reasonable choice in the context of increasingly high new flagship prices. However, users should pay attention to choosing to buy at reputable systems with strict inspection procedures, clear and transparent product warranty policies.
The biggest risk when buying an old device often lies not in the quality of the hardware, but in the fact that the device is not carefully inspected or there is no guaranteed after-sales mode. Therefore, customers should prioritize places that publicly disclose charging times, battery status, warranty directly at the store and have refund support during the first period of use.
