It’s no secret that buying a gently used phone on Swappa<\/a> is one of the best ways to save loads of cash. With the ever rising cost of today’s high-end smartphones, staying a generation or two behind the latest iPhone<\/a> or Galaxy<\/a> releases allows you to enjoy premium features, while keeping more money where it belongs: your pocket. Saving your money is what we do best at Swappa, and it’s something we’re not about to stop anytime soon<\/del> ever<\/em>.<\/p>\n

When it finally comes time to buy a new phone, the fact of the matter is not everyone needs the latest bells and whistles. Whether it’s a new green colorway, software features, or a triple camera setup<\/a> — more people are starting to realize that even without all the cutting edge hardware, older phones are still able to meet most of their needs. This is no more evident than the Swappa marketplace where we can see exactly which phones were the most popular of the year. Without further ado, here are the top 10 best-selling used Android phones of 2019.<\/p>\n

Best-selling Android phones on Swappa<\/h1>\n

As is the trend on Swappa, the top selling used phones are typically those that are two or even three years old. Looking over the data from last year, the Samsung Galaxy S8 was by far and away the best-selling used Android phone for 2019. Samsung<\/a> devices absolutely dominated the list, followed by some Google phones<\/a> sprinkled toward the bottom of the list. Take a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Fun fact: the Galaxy S8 was also the best-selling used phone of 2018, which means this is the second year running where the S8 takes top honors. It didn’t quite make our top 10 list, but first runner-up was the Google Pixel 3<\/a> which was neck-and-neck for the #10 spot, losing to the Google Pixel 2<\/a> by only a hair. No worries, there’s always next year…<\/p>\n
