How good is it for the environment / e-waste? If you buy a used phone every year from someone buying a new phone every year, it means that you both use one phone every two years, right? It's a lot worse than buying a new phone and keeping it for 8 years.
If I said "I buy new phones regularly, but I sell them in second hand, for the environment". Would you consider I actually make an effort for the environment?
Why?
For the environment? To reduce e-waste? And you'll almost certainly save substantial money too.
