Which things should I take care of while selling my phone online?

If it is a smartphone then you need to erase every data in it before selling because it may be misused if get caught on other hands, so you have to hard reset them from boot loader menu.And make sure you have no dirt on the mobile while taking pic of the mobile for listing so it will look like fresh and less likely used so chance to get more price.

Who you're dealing with, price negotiation and most importantly, your private data even after erasing your phone.

Don't be surprised, there are tools to recover those nudes if it falls into the wrong hands, just saying.

You must reformat first the Mobile before considering selling online.

Second you must not send the gadget first better if there is an escrow for safe transactions.

but the best way of selling mobile is meet up so the buyer can check the mobile thoroughly so there will be no issue ahead.

Cash on delivery (COD) is your best choice if the buyer won't pay online. But if he's up to pay the unit first then that's good for you as a seller.

And being a seller, just maintain the unit in good shape and whatever you have promised to the buyer or the ad that you have made, follow it. If the transaction is meet up, always bring a friend though we are in pandemic, so most likely transactions will happen online.

There are five important things that you need to do before selling your mobile phone.

• First remove the sim card
• Delete all data from your phone
• Reset it to the original factory settings
• Clean your phone
• Find the right buyer

That simple..

Just factory reset your phone so there is no previous data stored on the phone. I agree COD(Cash on Delivery) is a good choice, and be aware there are alot of bogus buyer online

You need to delete all your personal information on the phone from photos, videos, applications and contacts, do a factory reset of the phone, but do not forget to take a backup copy and transfer it to your laptop, This backup copy will be useful if you bought a new phone.

Things that you should take care before selling you mobile. 1st of all you should reset your mobile phone for erasing your personal data, social media accounts such as sanpchat, facebook, Instagram, twitter, and gmail. These type of app have so many and so much private data that is need to deleted before selling your mobile.

I think this small thing does not need to be complicated...
If you want to sell your smartphone online, you have to delete your data inside, then have good packing for shipping and use a third party to make transactions so you don't fall into fraud.

As far as I remember, restoring to factory settings deletes absolutely all personal information, so you can safely use this function and sell your phone.
