    Well, my 100-150€ phone has survived fine for over a year now.

    When you consider the rule (I’ve heard) that a phone is supposedly old and should be updated to a new one after two years of purchase, I consider my phone being on a long run already!

        True. I must say this is my first and only second-hand phone, so I’m very new on this stuff 😂

        I was told about the update problems as well. In my case, I still receive updates on my Samsung.

        I’d guess that putting some time on researching your options in second-hand phones reduces risks somewhat and adds to chances to end up with a decent find 😄
