Samsung Green Line or Screen Burn-In: Can You Request a Trade-In?
Samsung Green Line or Screen Burn-In: Can You Request a Trade-In?
A permanent vertical display line or image retention affects the usefulness and resale condition of a phone. If your Samsung has a visible display fault, disclose it before asking for a trade-in assessment.
Distinguish a persistent fault from a temporary glitch
Confirm whether the line persists after a restart and whether it appears across different apps. A line, flicker, dead pixels or touch problems may indicate a hardware issue requiring a qualified technician. Do not pressure or bend the screen to test it.
What the shop needs to see
Provide clear photos or video showing the display with a neutral background, identify the exact Galaxy model and storage, and mention any earlier display repairs or drops. An assessor may need to verify touch behaviour and repair viability before considering an offer.
Should you repair before exchanging?
Avoid spending on a replacement display before you know the economics. Ask a repairer for a documented diagnosis, then compare repair costs with likely utility and resale. Infinite Tech should confirm whether damaged units are being accepted before you travel.
What to ask before travelling
Ask whether the exact model and condition described can be reviewed, and whether the replacement device you want is available. Online enquiries are provisional, and a final offer can be made only after lawful-ownership verification, diagnostics and agreement. Infinite Tech does not publish a fixed top-up value for this exchange.

Frequently asked questions
Is the original box or receipt required?
They are optional and may help with model or ownership checks, but do not replace identification and lawful-ownership verification.
Can I receive a guaranteed value by phone?
No. Actual device inspection is necessary. Ask the team to confirm which services are presently available.
