I haven't done it personally, but I know of at least one person who did that by first going into one of the large Viettel stores and asking them for their recommendation.


Turned out it was a place directly next door to the Viettel store, probably associated somehow but not allowed to market & sell under the same roof.


Good luck with your search.

In Saigon back in 2019, my GF bought a "like new" reconditioned at this major retailer, . Came with one year warranty, in original box with fold-out literature inside. It had, we were told by the sales rep, been fitted with a new screen and a new back. It looked perfectly mint. Less than 3 million, which at the time I believe was less than 1/2 price from new.

Seems there's other places where it is, as a reconditioned phone, .


If you want to go much cheaper, any of the small one-off phone repair shops will have used phones for sale, though they will not be reconditioned to like new. I had an acquaintance up in Thai Nguyen who repaired phones, and he had literally dozens of used phones for sale. A lot of people brought him their phone for repair, not returning later to pick them up (or pay their repair bill).

@MarkinNam Seem chotot.vn is a good choice. You can find the price, then setup a meeting to review directly from owner.

I bought a used Samsung from someone on Cho Tot. No problems yet.


I am stuck buying used phones because I HATE the new phones with the narrow aspect ratios. A wider screen is much more versatile and enjoyable. But my 6 year old MiMax just developed a line of dead pixels :(
