Tips needed on buying an Used Xperia Pro

beeknight · December 2nd, 2011, 09:46 AM

Hey Everyone!

I'm in the market for my first Android smart phone

and my top choice right now is the Xperia Pro.

Anyway, I found one on Kijiji for $200 that is advertised as like new with original box and charges.

I am meeting the seller today but want to play with it for a bit before paying to make sure everything is all good.

This seems like a good place to find out what I should look for to make sure the device is good to go or if I should walk away from it. Any advice or tips?

Thanks! Looking forward to becoming a regular around here.

Sorry for the late reply and by know you probably have the phone, I'd suggest thought to look the phone all over, on the back there is a sticker check to see if you can still read all the info on it. Play with the phone and connect it to a computer and use the PC Companion to see if there is already an update available for it.
