We pay up to £28, paid the same day.
Condition decides the offer for your Galaxy A50: a handset with a cracked screen, a worn battery or both can still be sold, and the state you choose shapes the offer we confirm. After we inspect it, the confirmed offer is held for 14 days. Send it by free collection, drop it at the Haverhill shop or post it, and once your photo ID and proof of address are checked, payment goes out the same day.

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 A50 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 A50 works
No haggling, no waiting on a callback, and no offer that quietly drops when you arrive.
Get your price
Pick your Galaxy A50 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 A50 is worth depends on
Storage
Bigger storage means a better price. Tell the finder above which Galaxy A50 you have and it prices that exact variant.
We buy the 64GB and 128GB Galaxy A50 as two separate variants. When you ask for a quote, choose the storage capacity your handset shows in its settings, since the offer is calculated from the capacity you select.
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.
mendmyi will collect the Galaxy A50 for free, take it over the counter at the Haverhill shop, or post it to us. Use whichever is easiest: the route you pick does not alter the offer.
Once the Galaxy A50 has been through our inspection and an offer is confirmed, that offer stays on the table for 14 days. It will not be pulled early, so you can take your time to decide.
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 A50 in front of us.
A cracked screen, a worn battery, or both are damage states you can select when selling a Galaxy A50. Be accurate when you choose, because the condition you state is the one we inspect against when the phone arrives.
The Galaxy A50 has a 4000 mAh battery. If that battery is worn and spends less time on a charge than it used to, reflect that in the condition you choose before sending it in.
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 A50 once it is signed out of your Google account, which is what clears Factory Reset Protection.
Sign out of the Google account on your Galaxy A50 and clear the screen lock before it leaves you. A phone running Android 10 that is still tied to a Google account carries Factory Reset Protection, which has to be cleared before we can take ownership.
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 A50, 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 A50. 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 A50, 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.

Thankfully, the team managed to recover everything — photos, contacts, messages, the lot. They were professional, quick, and kept me updated throughout the process. What felt like a disaster turned into a huge relief thanks to their skill and care. If you’re dealing with a water‑damaged device and worried about your data, I can honestly say you’re in safe hands here. Highly recommended.”

Selling your Galaxy A50
My Galaxy A50 has a cracked screen and the battery is tired - will mendmyi still buy it?
Yes, we take a Galaxy A50 with a cracked screen and a worn battery. Choose the combined condition when you request a quote and the offer you see is based on the handset exactly as it is.
Before you collect my Galaxy A50, do I need to sign out of Google and remove the PIN?
Yes, sign out of the Google account and remove the PIN or biometric lock before the Galaxy A50 is collected. That clears Factory Reset Protection and means your A50 is no longer linked to your Google identity.
If I use the Haverhill counter, free collection or the post, will the offer for my Galaxy A50 change depending on which I pick?
No, the offer is exactly the same for a Galaxy A50 whether it reaches us by free collection, over the counter at Haverhill, or through the post. Choose the option that is most convenient and the deal does not change.
I am posting my Galaxy A50 rather than visiting the Haverhill shop - when do you pay me and what do you need from me first?
Payment goes out on the same day once your photo ID and proof of address have been confirmed, and a posted Galaxy A50 is no exception. Those checks are required for every purchase, regardless of which route the phone arrived by.
Would repairing my cracked Galaxy A50 screen be a better move than selling the phone to mendmyi?
Both routes are open to you, because mendmyi repairs Galaxy A50 devices as well as buying them. A repair keeps the A50 in use, while selling it as it is clears the cracked-screen issue in one step. Ask for whichever you are considering and decide from the facts rather than from any pressure.
Once you have inspected my Galaxy A50, how long do I have before the offer expires?
Once the phone has been inspected and the offer is confirmed, that offer is held for 14 days. You can use that time to decide without the confirmed offer being withdrawn early.
