Both phones are free when adding a new line through Verizon. I’m wondering if it’s worth buying a pre owned almost three year old phone in “great” condition or is it better to just get a brand new phone. I have no experience buying used phones and am only looking at getting something for free with a new line.

    i have to disagree with the people here in comments recommending the s23 fe yes chip set newer and will have more updates in the long run but those are such small things. even without security patches the devices arent really that at risk in all seriousness, you really wont be that left behind with software updates you’ll still get them for a while and the 21 ultra has a larger screen I’m telling you its just awesome for content watching and other things and finally the s21 ultra has a more versatile camera setup

    s23 fe it will get more updates the chip is newer and so is some of the cameras but honestly samsungs are pretty future proof, last long if you take care of it, not baby it but case, maybe a film screen protector and it will be a tank. they arent iPhones that **** on the slightest drop, yes its a phone it can be totaled but again a good case maybe a screen protector to avoid scratches (yes you will hate them) and yes either one will last a good 6 years if it need a battery change at 4-5 years you can do one. but id still like going big.
