Apple has quietly made changes to its trade-in values in the US, resulting in reduced maximum amounts that customers can receive for their devices. The adjustments apply to various product categories, including iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Apple Watches, with most decreases ranging from 15% to 25%.
iPhone trade-in values have been particularly impacted, with newer and older models alike seeing decreases in their trade-in worth. For example, the iPhone 16 Pro Max now fetches $670, down from $700, while the iPhone 15 Pro Max has dropped by 25% to $470. Similarly, iPads and Macs have also experienced price cuts, although one model, the iPad Air, seems to have had a small increase in value, which may be a clerical error. Apple Watch values have only slightly decreased, with some models maintaining their previous maximum trade-in values.
Overall, these changes in trade-in values may affect Apple customers looking to upgrade their devices and trade in their old ones. It's essential for customers to be aware of these adjustments when considering trading in their Apple products.
