As the saying goes, "The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit." Whether in rural areas or in towns, we often hear hawkers shouting: "Collection of used mobile phones, used old computers, and use mobile phones to repot." So do you know what these "used mobile phones" do to collect?
With the rapid development of economy and science and technology, the speed of mobile phone updates and iterations has become increasingly faster, and people change their mobile phones more and more frequently. Smart Android phones usually change in 2 to 3 years. my country generates nearly 500 million used mobile phones every year, most of which have not been effectively recycled, so the recycling potential of "waste mobile phones" is very great.
As the saying goes, "Apart from each other is like a mountain", so what are the uses of "used mobile phones"?
Most of the used mobile phones collected by hawkers will flow to the waste recycling station. They are junior dealers, so they can naturally make very little money. Waste recycling stations often concentrate a large number of used mobile phones, most of which will flow to mobile phone repair shops, mobile phone dismantling workshops, small mobile phone processing plants, and valuable resource recycling workshops. Therefore, the main uses of used mobile phones are as follows:
1. Parts removed from "used mobile phones" can be reused
A mobile phone contains many components, such as vibrators, cameras, handsets, memory cards, etc. These accessories can be often used during mobile phone repairs. Some mobile phone repair shops will specifically repurchase these used mobile phones from waste recycling stations.
Why do many people often fail after repairing their mobile phones? One of the important reasons is that the parts used during maintenance are all unqualified, and it may be removed from old mobile phones. These originals have more or less aging problems.
2. "Waste phone" can be used by customers as a "temporary opportunity" during the re-repair period. Many people only have one mobile phone and no backup mobile phone. If the phone breaks, it will be embarrassing. Some mobile phone repair shops provide particularly good service. If some customers’ mobile phones do not have backup machines during the remediation period, they will provide you with “temporary opportunity”.
Most of these "temporary opportunities" are used mobile phones recycled from customers, and they have the function of communication and Internet access, allowing you to work and live both. can be said to use used used by used mobile phones as a "temporary opportunity" for customers. It is the best magic weapon for mobile phone repair shops to attract customers and can indirectly increase the profits of mobile phone repair shops.
3. After the "waste phone" is renovated, it flows back into the market
This can be said to be the most profitable link in the circulation of "waste phones". Many "used mobile phones" are not damaged or have relatively low damage, so they can be renovated by replacing parts, screens, and rear shells. These renovation opportunities are re-flowing into the market. An old mobile phone that is recycled for 10 yuan can be sold for 300 to 400 yuan after renovation, and the profit is very large.
Many mobile phone stores will post "mobile recycling or mobile phone exchange for new" signs. They have two purposes: , one is to specifically recycle old mobile phones. These recycled old mobile phones are often sold after renovation. Some used mobile phones with more damaged parts will be disassembled and used as accessories for mobile phone repairs; the other is to attract customers to replace new mobile phones through the "old-for-new" method, thereby increasing the profits of mobile phone stores.
Many refurbished machines mostly flow to rural areas. Rural elderly people generally don’t know much about mobile phones. ’s requirements are: be able to make phone calls, send text messages, and listen to music. The lower the price of mobile phones, the more attractive they are to them. Of course, many renovation opportunities are sold abroad, such as in some economically underdeveloped regions such as Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America. Many renovation machines may become "hot goods" when going abroad.
4. "Waste mobile phone" is a sleeping treasure that can be used to extract "precious metals"
According to research, 200 grams of gold, 2200 grams of silver, and 130 kilograms of copper can be extracted per ton of waste mobile phone. The industrial taste (gold content) of gold ore is generally 3 grams to 5 grams per ton, which means that the gold content of used mobile phones is 40 to 60 times that of gold ore.
The plug-in and unplugging locations, display screens, and circuit boards of used mobile phones are the places with the most precious metals. In the process of refining gold with used mobile phones, we can extract metals of high value such as silver and copper. It can be said that thousands of used mobile phones are piled up together to be "a precious polymetallic mine."
"Worrying about information leakage" is the biggest factor hindering the "recycling of used mobile phones"
When it comes to "recycling of used mobile phones", many people will express concerns. There is a large amount of personal information stored in the mobile phone. What if these privacy information is leaked after the mobile phone is recycled? My friend has 3 old phones in his hand, including 2 Huawei and 1 Apple. Because he is worried about information leakage, he has been kept in the cabinet.
I personally think this concern is unnecessary. Generally, smartphones must be restored to factory settings before they are sold. Some payment software requires a login password and payment password. SMS verification is also required when logging in. Most people will not be so stupid that they spend a lot of time to obtain your information. In addition, this is an illegal act, so it is easy to find the person involved.
Secondly, many used mobile phones cannot be turned on. It is a thankless behavior to fix the phone before cracking your information.
For young people, "selling used mobile phones online" is a very common behavior. Many mobile phone recycling websites will automatically identify your mobile phone model. Just enter the mobile phone repair situation, basic configuration, and appearance wear conditions to give your old mobile phone a quick estimate. In this way, the recycling price is much higher than the price recycled by hawkers. Old mobile phones recycled by are often sold as "second-hand mobile phones" to make profits.
In short, no one will work hard to do business without making money. "Waste mobile phone recycling" has a complete chain of interests. The main uses of these waste mobile phones are renovation, reuse of parts, extraction of precious metals, and use it for people who are renovating as "temporary opportunities". The recycling of "waste mobile phones" is the reuse of resources, and at the same time protects natural resources. How to deal with your "used mobile phone"?
