Why is there an increase in the recycling price of used mobile phones announced by APPLE this time?
In addition to factors such as the rise and fall of the Taiwan dollar and the relatively low recycling prices of Apple’s original second-hand phones, the moderator speculates that due to the higher prices of the new-generation iPhone 14 series and the good durability of the old iPhones, the more affordable 5G or 4G second-hand iPhones that can still be upgraded to iOS16 have regained favor, allowing specific second-hand iPhones to reduce the decline or even grow against the trend. However, it is still rare for the price of second-hand mobile phones to increase. It is recommended that if you have a second-hand mobile phone that you want to sell, it is safer to sell it early!
As a special reminder, the old replacement price provided by APPLE’s official Apple Trade In is usually much lower than the recycling price of second-hand iPhones in the market. However, if you want to sell the second-hand iPhone at a higher price, you usually have to keep the box and accessories intact, and the body must not be scratched or damaged. Apple Trade In exchange can be applied for as long as the host is provided, which is relatively simple.
In addition, Apple’s official iPhone Trade In provides two ways to exchange old Apple devices for new ones. The first is to bring the old phone directly to an Apple store to exchange for a gift card; the second is to go to the official website to apply, and the discount will be directly applied to the cost of the new phone.Whether you want to buy a second-hand mobile phone through APPLE’s official website depends on whether you plan to buy related products on Apple’s official website and the appearance of your mobile phone!
