You already have in your hands an older generation iPhone and… you are coveting the new Apple models! But perhaps their prices are prohibitive for your budget?

So here comes the time to consider the possibility of exchange! Naturally, the closer your mobile phone is in time to the new generation of Apple smartphones, the more you will benefit financially.

Proper and thorough research

In your endeavor to find the golden mean so that you can acquire the new iPhone, without your pocket “bleeding”, you should follow specific steps. First of all, it is important to look for guaranteed promotional offers from mobile phone companies or from the manufacturer himself and immediately compare them with stores that want to exchange your device.

Exchange sites are not as good a solution as exchanging your old phone in the same store where you plan to buy your new one. Just make sure to get a proper assessment of the quality of your phone, which will ensure that the exchange will be fair.

Directly to the source

Your first stop could be the original company of your iPhone. Yes, we are talking about Apple! If you do business with Apple, you will receive credit that allows you to save money for your new iPhone. The model of the iPhone you have is the number one factor determining its value. For example, at the time of writing this article, on Apple’s “Trade In” page the estimated values of older models are as follows:

Please note that these are the maximum offered prices. Devices that are in poor condition or not working will receive lower offers. If your iPhone is deemed unsuitable for trade-in, Apple still offers to recycle your device for free.
