FULL STORY ======================================================================

Apple has increased the maximum trade-in values of older Pro iPhone models in anticipation of the iPhone 15 in September. Conversely, the maximum trade-in values for other phones particularly the older iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini models have been reduced.

Non-Pro and pint-sized models, such as the iPhone 12 mini either see decreases (from $220 to $200), or slight increases, with the iPhone 13 mini going keeping its $330 value in the US and seeing a small 335 to 340 rise in the UK. The 2020 iPhone SE also sees a decrease in value, from $100 to $90, while the 2020 iPhone SEs value remains unchanged at $160.

On the other hand, the trade-in values of high-end models like the iPhone 11 Pro Max, 12 Pro Max, and 13 Pro Max have been increased. Apple's aim is
likely to cater to customers seeking higher-value devices and the absolute best iPhones .The UK phones see the most substantial increases, with iPhone
13 Pro Max seeing a rise from 590 to 640, while the 12 Pro goes from 350 to 420. Both phones released $10 - $20 valuation increments in the US. A true value king

Apple's iPhones are renowned for retaining their value over time, making them an attractive choice for customers who prefer to hold on to their devices, rather than upgrading every year or two. With the assurance of a fixed
maximum trade-in value, users can comfortably use an iPhone for three or four years, knowing that they can cash in their handset when the time comes to upgrade.

While the highly anticipated Apple iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro are expected
to be announced in September, these favorable trade-in values can also be taken advantage of by customers looking to benefit from the reduced prices of older or refurbished models offered by Apple.
