If you’ve upgraded your phone recently, consider repurposing your old device instead of selling it. I turned my old phone into a dedicated travel phone — I use it for offline maps, translation apps, backup photos, and local SIMs when abroad. It’s also great as a minimalist productivity device when I want to stay focused without distractions from social media or calls.
You don’t need a SIM card for most of its uses, and it saves you from putting extra wear on your main phone. Plus, having a second device can be a lifesaver if your primary phone runs out of battery or gets lost.
