Are you going to get an iPhone 12, 12 Pro (Max) or 12 mini? Then calculate the iPhone trade-in value at Apple in advance for a discount on your new device. That’s how much you get back for your old iPhone.
Trade in or recycle your iPhone at Apple
Often your old iPhone is left in the closet when you bought a new one. That’s a shame, because this device is still worth money. Apple even makes it very easy to trade in an old device, so that you get a discount on a new iPhone. That’s a bonus, since new iPhones always cost quite a bit of money.
Calculate the iPhone trade-in value and get a discount
You can trade in your old iPhone on Apple’s website, where your device is quickly worth hundreds of euros. You have the choice to submit your device online and then send it in, or take it to an Apple Store. Here your old device will be valued on location.
Apple has a special trade-in promotion for the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max and iPhone 12 mini so that you can get the brand new phones cheaper at home. Apple takes the first generation iPhone SE up to the iPhone 11 (Pro and Pro Max). The return value of the devices differs enormously, of course, so keep that in mind.
If you trade in online, you will receive a gift voucher by email after approval. This way, your old iPhone can immediately contribute to your new iPhone. You can of course also use the discount for other products, such as an iPad.
