The survey results posted by CIRP show that 21% of iPhone users and 21% of Android users reported that their devices had a screen that was scratched but usable when they relinquished ownership of these handsets. 13% of Android users and 13% of iPhone users reported that their phones suffered from a cracked display but were still usable when they sold them, traded them in, or gave them to family and friends.
When it comes to the condition of the screen on a phone being traded-in, sold, or given away, iPhone and Android models are amazingly alike
Still in sync, 6% of iPhone users and 6% of Android users said that their phones had a cracked screen and were unusable before they were sent to a new owner. The only difference between the two platforms is that while 61% of iPhone owners said that the display on their phones was in perfect condition when sold, traded in, or given away, 60% of Android users said the same things about the display on their phones before giving them up.
Batteries on Android phones being given up perform better than similarly positioned iPhone units
Turning to the condition of the battery, before selling, trading in, or giving up their phones, 27% of iPhone owners and 25% of Android users said that the battery on their devices lasted a full day or longer without charging. 33% of those with an iPhone and 42% of those with an Android device said that the battery lasted most of the day without charging. Both 25% of iPhone and Android owners reported that before giving up their former daily driver, the battery would last half a day without charging.
