iPhones are better if you want to resale your phone within two years, says study

The new report on phone depreciation says that the best phones that held the most of their value at 12 months were iPhones.

A new report has thrown some light on phone depreciation amounts 12 and 24 months after they are released. The UK-based report claims that the iPhone 12 Pro was the best phone in terms of managing to retain its value the best in the six months after release, dropping by just 32 per cent in the said period.

While the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 lost over 50 per cent of its value in the first six months, which means if you bought a Samsung phone for Rs 100,000, then after six months, its value is less than Rs 50,000. The report by musicMagpie also compares 5G-enabled Apple and Samsung phones. It notes that the iPhone 12 series with 5G support retains a higher value than 5G-enabled Samsung phones.
