  • Screen & Body: Look for scratches, dents, cracks, or discoloration.
  • Buttons & Ports: Test all buttons, charging ports, and any other connectors.

Step 2: Remove Personal Data from Your Device

Before handing over your Galaxy Core 2, erase all personal data to protect your privacy. Follow these general steps:

  2. Sign Out of Accounts: Deactivate any connected accounts (e.g., Apple ID, Google, Samsung, Microsoft) to prevent activation locks.
  3. Factory Reset your Galaxy Core 2: Navigate to the settings menu and select “Reset” or “Erase All Content.” Ensure the process is complete before shutting down the device.
  4. Remove External Storage (If Applicable): Take out SD cards or SIM cards before packaging.
