Pages people actually search.
Remove the background from a product photo.
A listing needs a clean subject, not the kitchen table. Upload the phone photo. Keep the product. Drop the PNG onto white, color, or a simple scene.
Make a transparent PNG from a photo.
A transparent PNG keeps the subject and throws the backdrop away. That is the file designers, sellers, and social posts actually use.
