How to Sell Your Sony Phone for the Most Money

Popular Sony Phone Trade-in FAQs

Find out what you can get for your used Sony phone here at BankMyCell.com. We're a price comparison site providing instant quotes on Sony cell phones and other devices from trusted buyback stores. Our buyback partners pay the best prices on used Sony phones and provide free shipping and fast payment.

Our buyers base the price they'll pay for your Sony cell phone on:

  • Carrier: Unlocked devices (not locked to Verizon, AT&T, or another service provider) tend to offer higher prices.
  • Condition: We sort Sony phones under mint, good, cracked, and faulty conditions.
  • Storage: The device's storage capacity also affects the price quotes.

There's no need to search 'where to sell my Sony phone.' BankMyCell aims to be the best place for selling Sony phones by providing price comparison quotes from reputable buyback stores offering free shipping and various payment options (direct deposit, PayPal, and more).

Let's compare selling Sony cell phones to our buyback partners versus alternative options:

  • BankMyCell: When you sell your Sony Xperia PRO-I or another Sony Xperia cell phone via our website, you'll get the best price, a free shipping label, and no surprise fees.
  • EcoATM: Automated kiosks allow you to sell Sony phones quickly but typically only offer up to 55% of the device's buyback value.
  • Internet marketplace: Marketplace websites like eBay often include seller fees of 15% or more, shipping costs, and PayPal fees.
  • Carrier trade-in: Most carriers won't give you a cash offer for your old Sony phone. Verizon buys phones from customers with cash but may only offer up to 55% of what the cell phone is worth.

Sell your old phone or tablet to a BankMyCell buyer to get top dollar for your efforts in reducing electronic waste. Compare quotes to find the best deal, choose a buyer, drop your old tech at a local FedEx, UPS, or USPS drop point, and get paid. When you sell used Sony phones or other gadgets to one of our buyback stores, you'll benefit from:

  • High-value quotes with no hidden fees
  • Fast payments via check, direct deposit, PayPal, etc.
  • Free shipping
  • Free returns

In comparison, many big-box stores, carriers, and marketplaces include the following when you want to sell or recycle a cell phone:

  • Store credit or gift card offers only
  • Seller and payment fees
  • Shipping and mail supply costs
  • Time-consuming internet listings
  • Risky situations with unfamiliar buyers

Most retailers and carriers won't let you sell Sony phones with cracks, and it can be challenging to sell your Sony phone online with a cracked screen. Luckily, our site has partners who will pay you for cracked tech or in damaged condition.

Simply select 'cracked' in the condition filter if the device's frame, back, or screen has cracks, scratches, or chips.

Remember that the repair costs may exceed the device's buyback value, so you're typically better off selling a broken phone in its cracked condition.

If you have a faulty or broken Sony Xperia or another Sony device, BankMyCell can connect you with buyers offering fair-value prices for broken Sony phones. Select 'faulty' under the condition filter for any of the following problems:

  • Software: The phone's operating system prevents typical functionality.
  • Hardware: The phone has a damaged or broken jack, button, microphone, speaker, or camera lens.
  • Battery: The phone won't charge or power on.
  • Network: The phone won't connect to the network, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or GPS.
  • Touch screen and sensors: The phone has faulty fingerprint or face sensors or a faulty touch screen.
  • Water damage: The phone has software or hardware issues due to water damage.

Our buyers do not accept Sony devices that are:

  • Snapped or destroyed
  • Reported as stolen or lost
  • Fake replicas of Sony brand devices

Your price quote may change if, for example, you select 'good condition' for a water-damaged Sony Xperia phone.

Your phone carrier likely offers a Sony trade-in program that offers up to 45% less than the device's buyback value, often via store credit. If you trade in your Sony phone for extra cash via BankMyCell instead of upgrading, you can earn more money to spend on the brand-new phone you want.

Find your phone above to begin our hassle-free Sony phone buyback process and discover why our happy customers choose our site to sell their Sony phones.
