Apple Raises Trade-In Values for Several Devices, Adds More Android Models.

Apple has adjusted trade-in values for several iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch models and added more Android phones to its trade-in program, potentially offering some relief to consumers increasingly feeling price pressure. The largest increases in the values Apple offers for old devices approached 30%, while some devices remained at their previous values.

Overall, trade-in values rose by an average of 6.6%. Apple's listed trade-in values are maximum amounts. The actual value may be lower depending on a device's condition, color and version.

Apple added six Android smartphones to its trade-in program: the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, Google Pixel 9 Pro, Google Pixel 9, OnePlus 13 and OnePlus 13R. According to data from Consumer Intelligence Research, nearly 50% of iPhone buyers trade in or sell an old phone when purchasing a new one.

Higher trade-in values could therefore be an attractive incentive for Apple fans and may encourage them to continue upgrading their phones during a period of rising prices. Expanding trade-in support for Android devices could also broaden the customer base for Apple's iPhones and other devices.

Industry sources say Apple will launch its new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max smartphones in September. Possible new features may include a smaller Dynamic Island and satellite 5G connectivity. The rumored foldable iPhone Ultra may also debut in September.
