Your old Mac and iPhone are suddenly worth a lot more

Macworld When Apple hiked prices on dozens of devices in late June, we were left wondering what that meant for trade-ins. Since Apple was charging more for new devices, we naturally assumed Apple should give us more for our older devices, too. Now they are. As spotted by 9to5Mac , Apple has raised trade-in values for most devices, including Android phones. Presumably this is because Apple will get more from the used devices on the secondary market, whether through resale or reused parts, due to the surging price of RAM and other components. Most notably, iPhone trade-in values have mostly all increased, going all the way back to the iPhone 8, which will net you $5 more than before ($40 versus $35). The only iPhones that havent been affected are the 16e, 14 Plus, 2nd-gen SE, X, and 8 Plus. Apple doesnt offer trade-in estimates for its newest iPhones, including the iPhone 17 series, Apple Watch Series 11, MacBook Neo, and other current devices. Here are a few highlights for the models it does offer: iPhone 16 Pro: Up to $630 ($70 more) iPhone 14 Pro Max: Up to $405 ($30 more) iPad: Up to $260 ($25 more) iPad mini: Up to $300 ($35 more) MacBook Pro: Up to $855 ($160 more) Mac Studio: Up to $1,305 ($270 more) Of course, the maximum value depends on the condition, configuration, and age of the device, and you can almost certainly get more by selling your device through eBay or some other third-party site. But if youre buying through Apple, the process is easy and straightforwardand now youre getting a little more, too, just in time for new iPhones, Apple Watches, and Macs this fall. You can check the trade-in value for your device on the Apple Trade In site .
