Sell my Xperia 10

Condition guide

How we grade every device that comes in, in plain English.

Condition	What it means
Flawless	No scratches or scuffs anywhere. Screen and body look like new. Fully working, no cracks.
Good	Light, minor scratches or scuffs from normal use, none deep. No cracks or dents. Fully working.
Fair	Heavier scratches, scuffs, or a small dent, but no cracks in the glass or screen. Fully working.
Cracked screen	Cracked or chipped screen or back glass, but it still powers on and the touchscreen works.
Broken	Powers on but has a fault, a bad display, or a part not working (camera, buttons, Face ID).
Won't power on	Won't turn on or hold a charge. We still buy it for parts.

At inspection

Common Xperia 10 issues we check at inspection

Screen burn-in. The Sony Xperia 10 uses an IPS LCD display, which is less prone to burn-in than OLED. However, prolonged static image display can still lead to ghosting or image persistence.
Battery degradation. The 2870mAh battery is relatively small by modern standards and will show significant degradation after 2-3 years of use, leading to poor battery life.
Cracked or damaged screen. The Gorilla Glass 5 offers some protection, but drops can still lead to cracks or spiderwebbing on the display.
Faulty charging port. The USB-C port can become loose, damaged, or corroded, leading to intermittent charging or failure to charge.
Weak or non-functional speakers. The stereo speakers can develop issues with volume or clarity due to dust ingress or component failure.
Camera module issues. Focusing problems, blurry images, or complete camera failure can occur.
