Apple Will Now Give You More Trade-In Value for These iPhones, iPads, and Macs

I’m a big believer in holding on to your tech for as long as possible, but at a certain point, you do need to upgrade. When that time comes, it helps to get some money for your old device to offset the cost of a new one—especially when that new device is from Apple, whose products tend to hold their value well.

If you are thinking of trading in your old Apple product for a new one, there’s some good news: Apple just increased its trade-in estimates on a number of devices (while, at the same time, lowering the estimates on others.)

As reported by MacRumors, Apple updated its trade-in values for the latest iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch devices on Wednesday. The company lists the values for all of the devices that it accepts for trade-in on its official Apple Trade In website. While you can’t trade in every device, the company does accept trade-ins for for products from as far back as 2017. While you won’t get too much these days for an iPhone 8 (up to $35) or an Apple Watch SE (up to $30), quite a few old devices are worth more in trade-in value today than they were yesterday.

Apple’s new trade-in values

At this time, Apple appears to have mostly changed the values of the latest models of these device categories—and mostly for the better. While Apple doesn’t note the price changes itself, MacRumors has compiled all previous values, which I’ve noted alongside the new estimates here:
