How to trade-in old phone for new iPhone
- To trade your old iPhone or Android device for a new one, go to the official Apple website and select the smartphone you want to buy
- The follow-up screen will include an option ‘Do you have a smartphone to trade-in?’
- Select ‘Yes’, if you have an eligible smartphone, and enter Pin Core in the drop down menu and select whether your phone is an iPhone or Android device
- If you have an iPhone you’ll be asked to serial number – which you can find under Settings > General > About section. Android users will be asked to feed IMEI number. To find it, go to Settings > About > Phone Identity or Status.
- After this, you’ll be asked three questions ‘Does it turn on, and do all buttons work?’, ‘Is the body of the iPhone in good shape?’, and ‘Are the touchscreen and cameras in good shape?’
- Depending upon the state of your device, you’ll be given the best trade-in value for new iPhone
- Apple says that it’ll run a diagnostic test and verify the condition on the spot at the time of collecting your device, and if the results don’t match what you described, you’ll need to pay back the entire trade-in credit in order to receive your new iPhone.
