How Does Apple's Trade-In Program Benefit Customers?

Question

What is the most advantageous part of Apple’s trade-in program for customers?

Answer 1

Apple has made it possible for people to own new iPhones at a reasonable cost owing to their trade-in program. The customers who decide to swap their old iPhones are able to buy the newer version at a reduced price thus promoting more purchases and upgrades. This type of affordability comes as a relief as the prices of newly launched iPhones have been steadily increasing with every coming day. Further, customers do not have to feel guilty as the phones are either repurposed or properly disposed of as part of their green policy.

U could get more money selling the phone urself

I’m upgrading to the 13 Pro from the 7 and I would get less than £70 for it and it still works with no cracks on the screen so I’ll definitely be keeping it as a spare. It’s not much of a difference on a £949 phone

I never give them my old iPhones. I always need a secondary phone, and each time I upgrade, my previous main iPhone becomes the backup one. Now my main phone is the iPhone 8 Plus and my iPhone 6 is still serving me as my secondary phone which had served me for almost 7 years by now.

I would use that program but unfortunately even for perfectly condition phones the prices they offer are abysmal compared to other companies and especially private selling (but that option in any category usually leads to higher sale yield)

You'd likely get more money for your old iPhone by selling it directly to someone else.
