Apple Offering Limited Time Trade-In Promotion for iPhone 15 Buyers
It's that time of year again. We're still a good four months out from the launch of the iPhone 16, which is expected to feature a major camera upgrade. But in the meantime, Apple seems to be attempting to move iPhone 15 models off the shelf by offering inflated trade-in values.
From now through June 3, Apple is offering up to $650 in trade-in value towards a new iPhone when trading in an iPhone 11 or higher model. As Forbes points out, the move puts the company on a more competitive playing field with Samsung, which is typically more generous when offering trade-in values towards Galaxy devices.
However, the limited-time deal is still only a modest increase from Apple's standard trade-in rates, and is also dependent on the model. For example, the trade-in value of the iPhone 14 Pro increased only $10, from $520 to $530. Those still hanging on to their iPhone 13 mini will fare slightly better with a $30 bump from $270 to $300. (The iPhone 13 mini was also the last model of mini iPhones Apple made, as the smaller size was discontinued with the launch of the iPhone 14.)
But while it may not be a huge increase, that's still extra money in your wallet for those who were considering an upgrade, regardless.
And as always, the final trade-in value is dependent on the condition of the device meeting eligibility criteria. But if your iPhone is free of cracks, scratches, or any other damage, you can expect to receive the trade-in values listed below.
