Apple has revised its US trade-in estimates, cutting the amount it credits for every eligible iPhone while raising values across its iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch lineups. The update lands alongside the arrival of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo, which pushed last year's models onto the trade-in list for the first time.

iPhone values drop across the board

The newly listed iPhone 17 Pro Max now tops the phone range at up to $885, followed by the iPhone 17 Pro at $785. Notably, the iPhone Air is valued at $585, identical to the standard iPhone 17, even though it launched at a price $200 higher.

Every other iPhone on the list lost ground. The iPhone 16 Pro took the steepest percentage cut at 19%, falling from $630 to $510. In dollar terms, the iPhone 16 Pro Max dropped the most, sliding $110 from $720 to $610 just weeks after Apple had raised its value. Older models saw smaller reductions, with the iPhone 15 Pro Max slipping from $530 to $455 and the iPhone 14 Pro moving from $335 to $285.

New condition grading now live

The refresh is the first to run under Apple's new condition grading system, which is now active. Previously, devices with minor cosmetic flaws such as small chips in the display glass could be penalized nearly as heavily as phones with serious damage. Apple now applies more granular tiers that more accurately reflect a device's actual state, and it says no device receives less than it would have under the previous rules.

Apple Watch estimates followed the same downward trend as the iPhone. The new Apple Watch Ultra 3 enters the list at $430, well ahead of any other watch Apple accepts, with the Series 11 at $200 and the SE (3rd generation) at $115. Only the two oldest SE models held steady.

Mac and iPad move the other way

In sharp contrast, every iPad and Mac gained value. The iPad Pro climbed nearly 26%, rising from $720 to $905, while the iPad Air, iPad mini, and standard iPad each ticked up modestly.

The Mac saw the largest increases anywhere in the update, extending a run that has almost doubled some estimates since spring. The MacBook Pro now fetches up to $1,315, up from $855 in this update and from just $690 in May. The Mac mini rose 65% over the same stretch, and the Mac Studio climbed to $1,460. The Mac Pro was the only model left unchanged, holding at $2,195 at the top of Apple's range.

Android estimates barely move

Trade-in values for non-Apple devices were largely static. Apple applied four small reductions, including drops for several Google Pixel 9 and Samsung Galaxy models, and a single increase for the Google Pixel 7, which rose from $60 to $65. Numerous other Samsung, Pixel, and OnePlus handsets held at their existing prices.

As always, Apple stresses that its listed figures are estimates. Final offers can vary depending on a device's condition and configuration, and not every device qualifies for trade-in credit.
