Now that we’ve shown you what the future brings, what makes operating system updates so significant to cell phone recycling?
Cell phones have an active life of about 18 months if they’re lucky. Typically consumers ditch the old model for an updated one with newer features even before their time is up. An updated operating system allows users to obtain the same features as a newer model phone without ditching their old device!
Once the iOS8 and iPhone 6 are released this fall, consumers will make the decision to either extend the life or toss their used but not useless devices.
If they choose the latter, these unwanted devices can easily be refurbished, repaired or recycled with mobile asset management professionals who realize the goldmine within an iPhone.
Did you know there’s more gold in a pound of electronics than a pound of gold ore? Responsible recycling of precious metals found in most smartphones is essential, especially with the constant flood of new models being released. As a matter of fact, Google searches for “iPhone recycling” coincide and have been growing with every new iPhone release.
Here’s a quick run down of HOBI’s mobile asset management process.
Consider your options with the iOS and iPhone updates. Will you take advantage of iOS8 and extend the life of your device or send your phone to a certified cell phone recycler for responsible processing?
