Nicosuma Reveals April 2025 Used Smartphone Sales and Purchase Rankings
Nicosuma's April 2025 Rankings of Used Smartphones
Nicosuma, a used smartphone sales and buyback service operated by Belong Inc. (headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, CEO Koichiro Nishimura), has announced the rankings for used smartphones by sales and purchase numbers for April 2025. One notable observation this time is that Android smartphones did not make it to the buyback ranking.
Sales Ranking Insights
In the sales rankings for April 2025, the AQUOS sense3 has made a remarkable entry at number one for the first time. This surge in sales can be attributed to its competitive pricing, as the average selling price dropped to around 6,000 yen since February, making it more attractive to consumers. This is a significant milestone, given that the iPhone SE (2nd generation), which held the top position for 16 consecutive months since December 2023, has finally ceded its throne.
The increase in transaction numbers for the iPhone SE (3rd generation) has also contributed, resulting in a total ranking for this model at number one, closely followed by AQUOS sense3 and iPhone SE (2nd generation). Notably, the iPhone SE (2nd generation) has not dropped from the top since February 2023, marking a gap of 26 months.
It appears that there is a gradual shift in popularity among iPhones from the iPhone SE (2nd generation) to the iPhone SE (3rd generation). In the buyback ranking, the number of transactions for the iPhone SE (2nd generation) has significantly increased, reclaiming the top spot for the first time in 16 months, indicating a strong demand for this model.
Here is a breakdown of the top-selling used smartphones according to Nicosuma for April 2025:
