New iPhone 7 plus or Used iPhone 8 Plus?

Agris

Aye,

 

I'm trying to decide what to buy, a new iPhone 7 plus or a used iPhone 8 plus. The new one costs 720€, but the used one 640€. The sketchy part about the used one is that it's sold by a third party company, although I can test it out I feel skeptical about it. 

What are your thoughts should I buy the used one?

Talking about testing it, if the 3d touch doesn't work on it does that mean that the screen has been replaced?

I would get the 7 plus personally. Bigger battery and it doesnt have a fragile glass back, its also slightly thinner. Plus its new and under warranty. It also looks nicer to me, but obviously thats subjective. I dont like smudge and scratch magnet glass phones

 

The 8s only real advantage is a slightly faster processor, but that has little real world effect. What matters is that its fast enough to run smoothly and you wont see any real difference between the two. 

 

Oh yeah, and the 8 has animojis.  What those are used for i have no idea.

Emoji like pile of poop. iPhone 8 and x allows you to be an animated pile of poop.

 

Apple sure is running out of useful ideas nowadays.
