We pay up to £31, paid the same day.
The amount you are quoted for a Galaxy A16 5G rests on the condition you describe, and that amount is what you receive if the phone arrives as described. Cracked screens and worn batteries are handled as condition choices, not as reasons to cut the payment on arrival. Whether you book the free collection, come to our Haverhill counter or post the phone in, the amount stays the one you were quoted.

Once we send your offer it will not drop, so you have time to decide.
We repair, so faulty still pays
Cracked screen or worn battery is a job on our bench, not a write-off.
Not the Galaxy A16 5G storage or condition you were looking for?
We buy a lot more than we list here. Older iPhones, Samsung and Pixel handsets, iPads, Apple Watches, MacBooks and games consoles all get a real offer, and a cracked or faulty device is still worth something to us because we repair them in house. Tell us what you have and we will come back with a firm price.
No obligation, and nothing to pay. We will not give you a number we cannot honour, so if we need to see it first we will say so.
Three steps
How selling your Galaxy A16 5G works
No haggling, no waiting on a callback, and no offer that quietly drops when you arrive.
Get your price
Pick your Galaxy A16 5G storage and condition above and the price we pay appears straight away, no waiting for a callback.
Get it to us, three ways
Walk into the shop, book a free collection from your door within 5 miles, or post it free from anywhere in mainland UK.
Paid the same day
Accept the offer and you are paid there and then, by bank transfer, or store credit towards an upgrade or downgrade.
Your price
What your Galaxy A16 5G is worth depends on
Storage
Bigger storage means a better price. Tell the finder above which Galaxy A16 5G you have and it prices that exact variant.
We buy this phone in 128GB and 256GB storage sizes. Check which your Galaxy A16 5G has in its settings before you request a quote, because the storage capacity is part of how the payment is worked out for the exact model you own.
Screen condition
A cracked screen does not drop you to a faulty price. You keep the condition the phone is otherwise in and we simply take off what the glass costs us to replace, because we replace them ourselves.
Body and connector
Dents, scuffs and cracks to the casing are graded as part of the overall condition. A cracked back or a bent frame lowers the offer but rarely rules a device out.
The options for sending your Galaxy A16 5G in are a free collection, the Haverhill shop counter, or the post. Every route pays the same, so there is no reason to avoid the most convenient option.
Battery health
We check battery condition ourselves on the bench rather than asking you to self-report a figure online, since there is no single on-device reading we can rely on for every brand. A genuinely worn cell comes off at what a real replacement costs us, worked out once we have the Galaxy A16 5G in front of us.
A Galaxy A16 5G does not need to be in perfect condition to be accepted. A cracked screen and a worn battery are both condition points we ask about, so name them when you request a quote and the amount you see is based on the true state of the device.
The Galaxy A16 5G has a 5000 mAh battery, so the battery health is a genuine part of our inspection. If the battery has worn down noticeably, say so when you request your quote, and the amount you are offered will match the phone as sent.
Whether it powers on
A device that boots and passes our checks is worth more than one that does not, but a dead handset is still worth telling us about rather than binning.
iCloud or Google account lock
We can only buy your Galaxy A16 5G once it is signed out of your Google account, which is what clears Factory Reset Protection.
The Google account on your Galaxy A16 5G must be signed out before the phone leaves you, along with any PIN, password or biometric security. While that account and lock remain active, factory reset protection stays on, which means the phone is still tied to you and we cannot finish the sale.
Original parts matter to the price: an aftermarket screen, battery or camera fitted by someone else changes what we can pay. If you are not sure what is in your Galaxy A16 5G, our guide on how to check a refurbished phone walks through what to look for.
Five minutes
Before you sell: five minutes that protect you
Do these before you hand the device over and the sale goes through without a hitch.
-
1.Back up what you want to keep
Photos, contacts and anything else you would not want to lose. If an upgrade is replacing it, here is our guide to moving everything to your new phone.
-
2.Sign out of iCloud or your Google account
Turn off Find My before you hand over the Galaxy A16 5G. A device still signed in cannot be bought from you.
-
3.Take out the SIM and any memory card
These are yours to keep and are not part of the sale.
-
4.Note down the IMEI
Dial *#06# or check Settings to find it, in case you want a record for your own files.

No surprises
Ownership, ID and your data
Three things worth knowing before you sell anything to anyone, not just to us.
The device has to be yours to sell
We cannot buy a device that is still under contract or on finance, because until it is paid off you are not yet its legal owner. We also cannot buy a device that is part of an ongoing insurance claim, or that has been reported lost or stolen.
"This device is not under contract or finance, is not part of an insurance claim, and has not been reported lost or stolen - I own it outright."
We record name, address and ID on every purchase
We record the name and address of everyone we buy from, and check them against photo ID and proof of address. HMRC requires it: buying from a private seller, we have to raise the purchase invoice ourselves and it must carry your details. Bring the documents into the shop and show us, or send a photo if the device is reaching us another way.
It protects you as much as us: the purchase can always be traced back to a genuine sale rather than an anonymous one. A photocard driving licence showing your current address covers both documents on its own.
GOV.UK: VAT margin schemes, section 6.2Your data is wiped at our shop
Once your device is checked in, it is fully wiped and factory reset at our shop before it goes anywhere else. Nothing of yours is left behind on it.
Locked in
Your price is held for 14 days
Once we send you an offer for your Galaxy A16 5G, it is held for 14 days. That gives you time to compare us against the online recyclers before deciding, without the price moving under you.

Selling your Galaxy A16 5G
When mendmyi quotes my Galaxy A16 5G, will the amount on screen be what I end up with or can it change after arrival?
It will be what you end up with, provided the Galaxy A16 5G matches the condition you selected. The on-screen amount is not a starting point and it is not lowered after arrival, so nothing is negotiated down once the phone reaches us.
My Galaxy A16 5G has a cracked screen and a worn battery. Are those two faults together enough to put a stop to the sale?
No, they are not enough to stop the sale. A cracked screen and a worn battery are both covered by the condition choices you make, so include both when you request your quote and the Galaxy A16 5G remains eligible.
What must I do with my Google account before sending my Galaxy A16 5G to mendmyi?
You must sign out of the Google account and remove any PIN, password or biometric lock, because together those keep factory reset protection active. If the Galaxy A16 5G arrives still linked to you, we cannot process the sale and the payment will not go out the same day.
What are the sending options for my Galaxy A16 5G, and does the route I choose change how much I am paid?
The options are a free collection, dropping the phone at our counter in Haverhill, or posting it to us, and none of them changes how much you are paid. Whichever route you choose for the Galaxy A16 5G, the payment is the same.
What identification will mendmyi ask for before I am paid for my Galaxy A16 5G, and when is the payment released?
Photo ID and proof of address are required for every purchase, with no exceptions, whether the Galaxy A16 5G arrived by collection, at our counter or by post. Payment goes out the same day once your ID and address are confirmed.
Do you repair phones like the Galaxy A16 5G as well as buy them, so I can decide between the two?
Yes, mendmyi repairs devices as well as buying them, so whether you repair your Galaxy A16 5G or sell it to us as it is remains a genuine choice. We will not steer you towards selling simply because we also purchase phones.
