Smartphones, epitomised by Apple’s iPhone launch on 9 January 2007, have gone from an aspirational accessory to an efficient and ever-growing way to access modern life-enabling services. The smartphone has grown from strength to strength with consumers having a wide variety of options available while launch dates of new models that offer ever increasing features and capabilities becoming available at a faster rate.   

The smartphone phenomenon has resulted in the creation of alternate device related industries such as smartphone repair as well as technology recycling, from early take-up users to late entry users.  By partnering with 3R Mobile, Arrow Altech Distribution (AAD) has given its support to this technology recycling process by assisting with the return of pre-owned and refurbished smartphones back to the market place.  

Recycling technology achieves two objectives; it reduces the e-waste footprint of the smart phone industry while making smartphone technology and access to these services available to a wider audience.

The mission of 3R Mobile is to offer consumers, through their on-line portal, recycled and refurbished pre-owned smartphones making them available at affordable prices.  3R Mobile phones are boxed complete with headphone and battery charger accessories as well as with a six-month warranty, making this a great gift option for a family member.  All smartphones are ICASA approved and can be financed through credit or lay-buy purchase options.  3R Mobile also offers competitive pricing on smartphone repair services, to extend the lifespan of your device. 

3R will be offering Black Friday specials on the following phones: iPhone 5C 16gb, Samsung S4 16gb and iPhone 4S 16gb, so be sure to check out their website at: https://www.3rmobile.co.za/
