Essential Checks Before You Sell, Give Away, or Trade Your Samsung Phone

Complete these quick steps before selling or giving away your Samsung phone to protect your personal data and help ensure a smooth, fast payout:


  • Back Up Your Data

    Save your photos, contacts, and personal files to Samsung Cloud, Google Drive, or your computer using Smart Switch so you can easily transfer everything to your next device.


  • Check Device Diagnostic Status

    Go to Settings → Device Care → Diagnostics to check the condition of your hardware. A healthy status helps speed up verification and ensures your online quote matches the final inspection.


  • Remove Your Accounts

    Sign out of both your Samsung Account and Google Account. Removing these is essential to avoid activation locks and ensure a smooth, fast trade-in process.


  • Perform a Factory Reset

    Go to Settings → General Management → Reset → Factory Data Reset. This securely erases your personal data and restores the phone to factory settings.


  • Clear the Storage Slots

    Remove your SIM card and any microSD card if applicable. Only the handset is required for trade-in.


  • Wrap Your Phone Safely

    Place your device in a sturdy box or padded mailer with protective wrapping to prevent damage during transit to our Melbourne facility.
