Apple today reduced the estimated maximum price that customers can get when trading in several different Android smartphones for an iPhone. As part of the reduction of Android smartphones, Apple also adjusted prices for certain iPad and Mac models.



On its website, Apple displays the highest possible amount a customer can get when trading in a specific device for an Apple product, such as an iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch. The listed prices only represent the highest possible value, but the final trade-in value will be dependent on factors such as device condition.

Nonetheless, today’s price reductions for Android smartphones are notable, with some reductions more significant than others (price reflects maximum value and prices in brackets are previous prices).
