Sorry we couldn't find a price

Unfortunately, we do not have any prices for the options that you have selected. However, we do have some advice on what to do with your old device.

Although none of our recyclers are currently offering a price for your device, it is still of the utmost importance that you find a way to keep it in circulation. If you throw away your device, it is likely to end up on a landfill site where it will become e-waste, which is highly detrimental to the environment. Find out more about e-waste here.

Things you could do with your old device

  • If your device is damaged you might want to consider repairing your device rather than selling it, as you might still be able to get some use out of it. There are many websites and YouTube tutorials available that will be able to instruct you on how to fix your device yourself.
  • As well as these resources, you can also get involved with The Restart Project. The Restart Project are a non-profit organisation that connects people so that they can learn how to fix their devices themselves.
  • Have you thought about upcycling your device? This is where parts of your device are reused to create a new higher quality or value product. There are plenty of ways that you can transform your old device into something new, and you can find ideas simply by looking this up online.
  • If you take a look at Recycle-More or Recycle Your Electronics, you will be able to find your nearest recycling bank, which is a guaranteed way to ensure that your old device will be responsibly recycled.
  • If you are unable to find a recycling company that will accept your device, why not donate it to a charity? Many charities will accept old electronics, such as Oxfam, Water Aid and National Trust.

When Is the Best Time to Sell Your Fairphone 3?

The value of mobile phones drops over time, so our number one piece of advice is to always sell the phone as soon as you have no more use for it. It’s worth more now than it will be in the future so as soon as you have put the order for a new phone in, providing it is expected to come fairly soon, you can lock your offer price in for your old device. It’s all too easy to get distracted by the new phone when it turns up, so best get that out of the way before it does.

What Will Happen After I Recycle My Fairphone 3?

The merchant will make any repairs the device needs to make it suitable once again for resale, or if it was already in a really good condition, they will make sure it doesn’t have any personal data still on the phone, give it a little clean and anti-bacterial and viral wash, and then put the device back on the market, where someone else will likely enjoy the remaining years of support and upgrades fairphone tend to offer their customers.

Can I Sell My Broken Fairphone 3?

The thing about Fairphone is that a broken one is usually very easily repairable, due to the availability and interchangeability of the device components. This means merchants aren’t put off by a broken one. It does mean you’ll receive less for it, but it’s better than finding its way into a landfill. Simply choose broken in the selectors above and go through the same process as if it were new.
