Trade-In FAQ
How Gadget Trade-In Works with ReDevice
Trading in applies your old device's buyback value toward a pre-owned device from ReDevice, instead of receiving cash. Here's how it works.
Get WhatsApp QuotationSell vs trade-in
Selling gives you cash for your device. Trade-in applies that same buyback value toward a pre-owned device you're buying from ReDevice — the process of quoting and inspecting your old device is the same either way.
Upgrading
Trade your current device in and top up the difference toward a higher-spec pre-owned device.
Downgrading
If your trade-in value is higher than the device you're getting, ask us about receiving the difference — confirm this on WhatsApp as it depends on the specific devices involved.
Device-to-device trade
Trading one device type for another (e.g. phone toward a tablet) is possible where stock allows — check current availability on WhatsApp.
How buyback value is calculated
Same as a straight sale: model, storage, condition, battery health and lock status all factor in, confirmed after physical inspection.
Damaged or locked devices
A damaged or locked device can still be traded in — see our broken iPhone, damaged Samsung and locked phone pages for specifics.
Courier trade-in
Outside Sungai Petani, courier your device to us — see our courier buyback policy.
Data preparation
Back up and sign out of your device before trade-in — see our data wipe & privacy page.
Payment/top-up handling
Any balance (top-up owed by you, or difference owed to you) is settled using the payment methods currently available from ReDevice.
No obligation
Your estimated quote carries no obligation to proceed — you can walk away after inspection if you're not happy with the final offer.
Common questions
Yes — a damaged device can still be traded in. See our broken iPhone or damaged Samsung pages for specifics.
If your trade-in value exceeds the device you want, ask us on WhatsApp about receiving the difference.
