How much is a Fairphone 5 worth? Like new with a strong battery we pay 225 €, with light marks 180 €, with a cracked display 120 €, and for a faulty phone without signs of tinkering 60 €. On the Fairphone 5 the biggest drop comes from the OLED display: a crack, burnt-in image traces or a green tint cost 105 € compared with the best condition. The swappable 4,200 mAh battery weighs less heavily, because it is easy to replace.
Sell a Fairphone 5 with display or water damage
A crack in the OLED, a picture that only flickers, or a phone that no longer turns on after falling into water: we buy a damaged Fairphone 5 too. Tell the calculator what happened and you see the value straight away. The Fairphone 5 is IP55 rated against splashing water, not against submersion, which is why this kind of damage happens fairly often. We restore such phones in our own workshop.
Send it in for free, get paid in around 48 hours
If you are happy with the estimate, we email you the insured label. Post the Fairphone 5 in Villach, Steyr or Vienna-Liesing, and we cover the postage. In the workshop we check the OLED, battery, both rear cameras and the USB-C port. Around 48 hours after the inspection the money arrives by PayPal or bank transfer. The details are in our trade-in terms.
How to get your Fairphone 5 ready to sell
First save what matters to you: photos, chats, authenticator apps. Then remove your Google account in the settings and reset the Fairphone 5 to factory settings. A phone still linked to a Google account stays locked after the reset, and we cannot buy one like that. Keep your SIM card.
Do you have a Fairphone 6 or an older Fairphone 4? We take those too, and the Fairphone overview shows every model.
Frequently asked questions about the Fairphone 5
What is the Fairphone 5 trade-in value for a used phone?
Like new with a good battery 225 €, with light signs of use 180 €. With a cracked display we pay 120 € for the Fairphone 5. That is an estimate; the fixed price comes after the inspection.
What resale value does a Fairphone 5 with a scratched back have?
Light scratches on the back or frame, everything working: 180 €. If the back is broken or the housing is bent, we rate the Fairphone 5 lower.
Can I sell a broken Fairphone 5 with a faulty display?
Yes. A cracked OLED brings 120 €, as long as the rest works. If the Fairphone 5 is faulty overall and shows no signs of tinkering, it is 60 €.
Which storage do I select for the Fairphone 5 in the calculator?
The one shown under Settings › Storage: the Fairphone 5 comes with 256 GB and, since September 2024, also with 128 GB, which brings 25 € less. A microSD card does not count; take it out before shipping.
How much does a weak battery push down the price of a Fairphone 5?
Less than display damage, because the battery in the Fairphone 5 can be swapped in a few minutes. Above 85 percent capacity there is no deduction, below that a small one, and under 80 percent a clearer one.
Who pays the postage when I send in my Fairphone 5?
We do. The insured label comes by email and you post the Fairphone 5 for free, from any Austrian state.
What does it cost if I decide to keep the Fairphone 5 after the inspection?
We send it back to you and charge 10 € for return shipping. Sending it in stays free, and with honest answers in the calculator this rarely happens.
How do I remove my Google account from the Fairphone 5?
Settings › Passwords & accounts, tap the Google account, “Remove account”. Then erase all data under System › Reset options. Only then does the Fairphone 5 go into the parcel.
How and when is the Fairphone 5 paid out?
By PayPal or bank transfer, around 48 hours after the inspection. There is no cash. Tell us which method you want when you finish.
Sell a Fairphone 5 at MediaMarkt, refurbed or Reparo?
MediaMarkt pays with a gift card, the full price only without a cracked display. refurbed pays by bank transfer but does not accept a phone with a cracked display. With us a Fairphone 5 with a cracked OLED gets you 120 € as money.
Does the Fairphone 5 box belong in the parcel?
If you have it, yes; the calculator gives a small plus for it. The Fairphone 5 never came with a charger anyway, so there is no need to look for one.
Do you buy a Fairphone 5 with a battery or display I swapped myself?
Yes. State in the calculator that the Fairphone 5 was opened and whether you used an original Fairphone module. Third-party parts lower the price more than original parts.
Should I sell my used Fairphone 5 before switching to the Fairphone 6?
Best sell it as soon as the Fairphone 6 is set up. Every year unused costs value, and today a like-new Fairphone 5 still brings 225 €.
How long will the Fairphone 5 get updates?
Fairphone has promised software support for the Fairphone 5 into the 2030s. That is the main reason we still pay 225 € for a well-kept phone.

Yes. Reparo is a workshop in Vienna, reachable on +4367762801426, and every purchase follows written trade-in terms. The Fairphone 5 travels insured, and you get the inspected price in writing by email.
