Community Reviews
Apple's trade-in promo is making newer iPhone upgrades more attractive, with top credits like $720 for an iPhone 16 Pro Max and $630 for a 16 Pro, and even older models getting bumps. The credit comes as an Apple gift card or refund after trade-in, and carrier-locked phones and multiple devices are accepted. The main catch is that the value can shift when new iPhones launch, and higher storage does not earn extra credit. It is a cleaner way to offset a new phone if you are comfortable with Apple store credit.

Apple pays the full purchase price plus tax up front, then refunds the trade-in amount after the device is received. In-store trade-ins can be processed as a post-purchase refund, and the refund can go to a debit card or be issued as an Apple gift card for future purchases.
The current credit makes upgrading more palatable, but the math still leaves a sizable out-of-pocket cost for a new flagship. The main practical benefit is offsetting part of the price while getting a new battery and newer camera/processor hardware.
The current top values include iPhone 16 Pro Max up to $720, iPhone 16 Pro up to $630, iPhone 16 Plus up to $485, iPhone 16 up to $480, iPhone 15 Pro Max up to $530, and iPhone 15 Pro up to $420. Older models also increased, such as iPhone 13 at up to $205 and iPhone 12 Pro at up to $195.
Trade-in values typically fall after a new iPhone generation launches, and Apple often adds the newest model as a trade-in option while lowering older-model credits. That makes trading in before the next launch more favorable if you want the highest current value.
Yes, a carrier-locked iPhone can be traded in, and multiple devices can be submitted in one transaction. The credit is issued as an Apple gift card that can be used toward any Apple purchase.
A cracked back glass can disqualify the device from trade-in and route it to recycling instead. Front glass being intact is not enough if the back is damaged.
