Trade in values have never been how iPhones retain their value. You have to sell it yourself for that.
It’s bad for the watch as well. SSSB 44mm tease in was £80. Nearly 90% depreciation in the first 12 months

You have to sell them as a private seller. Apple has always offered low prices for trade in. This is nothing new. Them retaining their value is for private party sale. The price will go down a little bit once the new phones ship because people are selling their old phones. More supply means lower prices.iPhones always retained their value which made the high asking price palatable.

You can get around 150 pounds more if you sell on eBay i think. So total around 540 pounds.iPhones always retained their value which made the high asking price palatable.

Apple are charging you a steep premium for being lazy; as others have said if you want the actual trade in value you have to sell it privately and realise it yourself. If you want Apple to do that you basically have to pay them for their time on top, hence the derisory sums they’re offering.
All the usual fanboys will be lapping it up I guess
Just don’t fall for it. There’s no difference between your max and the new models. Except a better camera, which has been good enough since the iPhone 5. And a faster chip, when in reality the iPhone 7 is fast enough to be able to do anything you need with a phone
Arguably the new one is even a downgrade from the XS max, as the design is revolting with those 3 cameras, that midnight green is hideous too. A cheeky price raise in the uk too for the pro, can’t see how they’re gonna sell many of these tbh.
I’ll be keeping the XR until it’s no longer supported and spending the cash on something more fun

Has the value gone down or are these Apple's trade in values? Apple offer lower than other places like mazuma, O2 recycle or carphone warehouse.iPhones always retained their value which made the high asking price palatable.

I got £660 for my xs max on Saturday.
I do find it interesting that the iPhone X has a higher trade in value than the iPhone Xr. In addition, the iPhone Xs commands only $100 more than the iPhone X. That is very telling.
Maybe this is part of how they are dealing with the tariff stuff for now. Hmmm. Either way I get to upgrade my phone without any down payments or anything since I’m on T-Mobile’s Jump+ (got it in 2013, they stopped selling it, but I pay for it each month so yay!) lol
I think I’m going to go for the Silver iPhone Pro Max this time... green is interesting, gold looks less cool this time around but Space Gray is cool as usual. What to get... what to get?

“There’s no difference, except this, this, this, and that.”
This is a horrible hot take.
