Trade Advice

tooter1 · Feb 22, 2013

I haven't put my Note for sale on swappa but, I did list it for sale or trade locally and was offered a very good condition 16gb iPhone 4s + $300 for my Note.

I know I should be able to get $600 for the Note but, I think the 4s is only worth about $200.

Would you all make the trade?

kintwofan · Feb 22, 2013

I wouldn't just because I couldn't do the tiny iPhone screen. However if you're okay with it then that's actually a good deal.the iPhone runs 300 still. I would try for 350 though to make it a great deal.

Bad trade. At least get the 5 and not the 4s. W/ that said, going back and forth to the 5 from the N2 it's retarded tiny screen really bugs me lol.

That is a better trade, but it depends on his goal. If he wants cash then he will but get any or at least very little with a5

Wow, I couldn't see going to a 3.5 screen. Last time I had a screen that small was the touch pro 2...

I guess they didn't want it that bad, they wouldn't do the $350 + 4s.

Why do folks think their iPhones are gold?

The biggest phone I've ever had!

I guess if you really need to have an iPhone for work or something consider it but I have both my Galaxy Note 2 Titanium and my 64GB iPhone 5 in black sitting on the desk in front of me and I would never EVER consider trading my Note for an iPhone. The Note blows the iPhone away in every aspect except market content.

No contest.

+1 did the same the other day idk how people go thru the day with those tiny screens. I picked up my gnex yesterday though and typed on it and had a hard time and i had that for over a year and made it fine so i guess it all prefrence. But an iphone is much different then a gnex.....bottom line wouldnt consider trading my note for an iphone 5 straight up. NEVER!!!!

Its all perception. You would cringe at first, but a few weeks with an iPhone and you would get used to the screen size. Back before Android phones got giant (Think around the Droid Incredible/Droid X days) the phones like the Incredible (3.7in) felt normal and the phones like the droid X (4.3in) seemed gigantic. Now that you are used to the Note 2 it may be hard to go back to 4in but when you had a 4in phone I don't think you always cringed while looking at it.

lol, exactly.

I still have a mint condition TP2. I was playing with it the other day.

i can't believe I loved that phone so much. Now, it just seems so small/laggy etc....

Honestly, if I was to trade phones "AT THE MOMENT" the only phone I see worth of trade is the iPhone 5. Anything else would need cash on top. The iPhone has a better build of materials. And to be completely honest the software "Apps" on iOS is still dominating Android. Especially in the game department...

Any other phone trade would need cash on top.

I completely disagree with this. Although I agree that when the first 4.3" screens were coming out I thought they were huge, I feel that you can get used to the bigger screen, but it doesn't work going back the other way. I went back to my Droid 2 after my GNex's touch screen stopped working and tried to live with that tiny screen for 2 months before the GS3 came out and I bought that. OMG I was so happy to get a decent sized screen back again. I feel I could confidently go back to a 4.7" device without much fuss, mainly because I miss being able to completely one hand a device, but anything smaller nowadays and you're just missing out.

My 2 cents... Who cares. Let them get whatever they want. It gets old arguing about what phone is better than the other, and whatnot. The only thing I dont understand is why people need to validate by posting that either a phone sucks and they are getting rid of it, or the fact they need to be talked into moving to something else.

Trade them even up for an iPhone 5 and be done with it.

"Who cares. Let them get whatever they want."??? The OP cares obviously and is asking for trade advice and we are all contributing because we care. I don't see anybody arguing, in fact I found the conversation quite pleasant.

I'm also wondering if I should go back to the iPhone 5. I like the apps on iOS and are missing some that are not on android. I also found a bunch of themes that I like for the jail broken IPhone 5. I'm trying to decide but afraid that I'll regret going back to the iPhone. Keep in mind that I already have a galaxy tab 2 7.0. So I feel like I have two tablets lol

You can't go back or you would need to change your xda name

Nah, don't do it. You'll regret it. Do you really feel like playing the ol' Jailbreak vs iOS update game?

No I don't. Looks like apple is trying to patch up the jailbreak.
