So, normally I sit around my computer during times of CES or the like and vigorously follow every announcement and bit of news. Then, I usually like to make some sort of database. For those of you who have been with me for a while, know how I love my databases.
Anywho, this year I was fairly distracted so didn't get the opportunity to be as vigilant as I had been in the past.
Luckily, Flipsy.com has made up a list for us. Now, background on what Flipsy is, for those of you who may not know...
Flipsy.com is a site that lets you look up your phone and see what a 'going rate' for it should be. So, if you're looking at a bunch of new phones and are wanting a change, but need to unload your old one, you can peruse through their list and see what the going rate is and if there are any interested 3rd party companies making offers. If you like it, sell through there. If you don't, well, now you have an idea of what you're up against when you go to throw it on your buy and sell group or swappa.
Now, it's an American company, so it's listing for USD and American carriers, but it's a good place to start your journey to selling your device.
So it makes sense for them to have built up a list of new devices for you to salivate over and get rid of your old one. Thanks Flipsy
Anyways, on to the list. Which are you most excited for?
(note, I've put links to where we've discussed the device)
