Do you have a phone with a cracked screen and want to know whether it can be sold? If you want a one-word answer without any suspense. Then it is a yes.
People often think that a phone with a cracked screen can neither be sold nor repaired. So, such pieces are frequently found lying inside drawers alongside other scraps. But, only saying that the phone has a cracked screen is not enough. A phone with a broken screen can have multiple values when the condition of the other parts of the phone is evaluated.
Hence, other factors apart from the broken screen will be considered when determining the price of the phone. A cracked screen not only implies a crooked surface that takes away the aesthetic appearance of the phone but can very well lead to the malfunctioning or inactivity of some features and sluggish performance.
The other factors to be considered apart from the broken screen are as follows:
How Acute Is The Crack?
See whether there are a few marks of scratches on the screen or fish traps of cracks that have coated the surface of the display.
How Have The Cracks Affected The Internal System Of The Phone?
Check whether the crack has hampered your smooth daily phone usage or whether the device’s functioning is totally unaffected by the condition of the screen. Most importantly, check the touchscreen’s functioning and see whether there is any change in the speed or quality of responsiveness or screen flickering.
What Are The Other Issues Your Phone Is Suffering From?
For an accurate estimation of the price, you have to see the other issues in the phone apart from the cracked screen and anything that has hampered its performance. This can include battery efficiency, blurry camera, overheating, lagging issues, impaired audio, problems in switching on and off the phone, and many others.
The above-mentioned factors will, on their own, determine the price of the phone. But you can increase the value of your phone by making some small modifications.
Just Try This For Once
Enquire whether something could be done with the screen. Authorized repair centers and service providers using genuine replacement parts and adhering to industry-standard repair procedures can at least try to make some repairs to the screen so that its condition can be improved without any post-repair issues. You can also use a manufacturer or extended warranty to get the device screen replaced.
Outer Beauty (The Screen) Attracts, But Inner Beauty Captivates
It would be fine if nothing could be done with the screen. The next step is to make all the possible repairs related to any malfunctioning of the device. Replace the battery if its utility has degraded, or replace the faulty charging ports and try to troubleshoot every other issue with the device. This will fetch you more money for your device, even if the screen is cracked.
The Face Is Cracked. But What About The Rest Of The Body?
See whether there are any scratches, cuts, or breakages on the back glass or flip surface of the phone. If there are any, replace them. Glass backs allow for several performance improvements like wireless charging and give the phone a stylish appearance. Also, try to fix the broken camera lens. Sanitize the phone of any dust, fingerprint, or specks.
Remember: The More You Repair, The More You Earn!
Having said that, the price of your used phone can decrease if the screen of your phone is totally destroyed, which further hampered the internal functioning of the system because this makes it difficult for companies or second-hand mobile sellers to sell them to the customer. People do judge a book by its cover. You know this, right?
