Apple has always been known to provide good trade-in rates for old iPhones. The norm would be to trade in your old iPhone and get an excellent deal on a new one. It was as simple as that. However, Apple has recently downgraded its trade-in values, and currently, its trade-in services are among the worst.
It was recently spotted that some of the old iPhone models are worth a lot less through trade-ins. For example, the iPhone 13 Pro saw its trade-in rate drop by almost $80 in the United States. It is almost the same in the UK as well. The iPhone 13 also saw its trade-in value drop by almost $50.
While the rates of iPhones have not been cut by Apple, it is considering the costs of re-homing your old iPhones. Apple does not necessarily recycle old phones. If the phone is in excellent shape, Apple will sell it to a new owner. However, the cost of doing so is factored in when valuing old iPhones for trade-ins.
Now that the trade-in prices have dropped, where can you get the best price for your old phones? Here are a few trade-in alternatives.
