\"Samsung<\/a>I have been a Samsung Galaxy fan now for several years, since the Samsung Galaxy S3. \u00a0What I like about Samsung is that they are sincerely interested in giving their consumers the best possible technology available. \u00a0Unlike Apple, they do not hold their consumers back with only an 8 MP camera and severely lacking zoom capabilities. Samsung is\u00a0constantly innovating the mobile phone arena. \u00a0The new upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is no exception. \u00a0The Note 4 offers a 15 MP camera (great for blowing up pictures on your TV screen or printing big pics), a 5.7″ AMOLED screen, and a stylus for taking and manipulating notes. \"Note We recently had the opportunity to write about the new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 on eBay, to educate readers on why we think the Samsung Note 4 is a great choice when you’re ready for a phone upgrade. \u00a0Read our Ready for the Note 4?<\/a> Guide on eBay and tell us what you think. \u00a0I have used the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 for nearly a year now and I love it. \u00a0When given the Samsung Galaxy S5 to review, and let me add, it’s a fantastic phone, I gave it to my husband to use and kept my Note 3. I love the Note 3 due to it’s larger size, stylus pen for writing handwritten notes (that turned into type), and the gorgeous pictures it takes. \u00a0Believe it or not, most of the pictures you see on WellConnectedMom are taken with the Samsung Note 3. \u00a0You can touch\u00a0a certain spot on the phone camera and it focuses on that point. \u00a0The pictures turn out as if taken on a professional camera. I am definitely excited to upgrade my phone to the new Note 4 and try out all of the new features.<\/p>\n

Is it Time for a Phone Upgrade?<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you’re thinking it’s time for a phone upgrade\u00a0in the coming months due to the new Samsung Galaxy Note 4 or even perhaps the iPhone 6, you have a couple of options of what to do with your old phone:<\/p>\n

1. \u00a0Give it to one of your kids<\/strong> – this is a popular option, but it doesn’t give you any funds to put against your new phone purchase<\/p>\n

2. \u00a0Sell it or apply it against the purchase of your upgraded phone<\/strong> with\u00a0your mobile carrier – convenient, you you’re leaving money on the table<\/p>\n

3. \u00a0Put it in a drawer<\/strong>, hoping to do something with it later (you’ll most likely forget)<\/p>\n

4. \u00a0Sell it on eBay<\/strong> or some other venue<\/p>\n

In doing some work from eBay, I’ve become better acquainted with the idea and process of selling\u00a0phones in their online world marketplace. \u00a0On average, eBay returns up to $200 more for your current previous generation device over competitors. \u00a0And they have a walk-through process that makes it easy to sell your phone, whether it’s your first time or 10th. In preparation for the enormous number of new phones that will be purchased in September and October due to the Samsung Note 4 and Apple iPhone 6 arrivals, eBay is offering a program right now to help you feel more secure that your current phone is going to sell. \u00a0Put your phone up to sell on eBay between now and October 24th and if for some reason it doesn’t sell, eBay will give you a $100 coupon towards any eBay purchase (certain restrictions apply). Sounds like a good deal to me. \u00a0Learn more about how to trade in your phone at the bottom of our Ready for the Note 4?<\/a>\u00a0Guide on eBay.<\/p>\n
