These days, people tend to be very attached to their electronic gadgets. Some studies have shown that in the US, children are more adept at communicating with each other using text messages than they are in actual person to person communication. Almost everyone today owns either a smart phone, a laptop or notebook; a desktop or all of them at once. Amongst the smart phones, the most popular one by far is the iPhone. And as the usage and our dependency on our iPhones increases their lifetimes are sure to decrease with constant usage. So what to do with a broken iPhone?

It is a small world

When the life of your iPhone has run its course, there are more than a few options available to discarding it. Some people just throw it into the nearest trash can. Others just leave them lying around the house. Others find ‘ingenious’ ways of getting rid of them, like by competing in phone throwing competitions. But what most people don’t realize is that a broken iPhone can be put to a much better use by selling it.

In a time when recycling is the word and money-saving techniques are the most sought after ways of living, being able to sell items that we no longer use comes as a blessing. The effects of global warming, although caused by the most developed nations, are hitting hard at people living in even the most remote and technologically backward areas of our world. This makes us realize that all of us are in the same boat and need to share in fighting for our common future. And also, with the world in an economic slump, it makes us realize that with globalization no country, and hence no people, can be economically independent from another. Thus, saving and wisely using money, if done by everyone can lead to a prosperous mankind.

Do your bit for all

With this being said, anyone with a simple thing as a broken iPhone can help make a big change. Selling one single iPhone to sites like iPhonesIntoCash can help in making sure there is one less pollutant in the landfill. Selling another one can reduce the expenses of another person, who may be half way across the globe, from spending too much on a new phone when he buys a refurbished one with basically the same functions as the brand new one. That same person might not even need to get another phone if he can find a single spare part to make his old or damaged iPhone to work.

So, how about selling your old iPhone and doing your bit for humanity?
