How to get the most money when trading in your old iPhone

With Apple unveiling its next iPhone there’s an influx of old devices entering the second-hand market. If you want to upgrade your device and therefore sell your old one, make sure you read this guide to ensure you get the best price for your tech. 

Part of getting the most money for your iPhone starts before the day you actually sell the device. To keep the value of your device high you want to take good care of all aspects of it, from the front screen to the edges of the device. You can keep your iPhone looking brand new by using a good-quality phone case and a screen protector.

When it comes to actually selling the device, keep in mind that selling directly to Apple is unlikely to get you the best price and won’t necessarily be simpler than other alternatives. No matter what condition your iPhone is in it’s still possible to sell the device. Start by seeing how much similar devices are selling for, you can do this on sites like eBay or GumTree. Then see if you can sell the device to family or friends as this means you won’t have to go anywhere to sell the device, if they aren’t willing to pay what you now know the device is worth you can look to sell the device through a third party website. 

The iOutlet offers instant quotes and simple trade-in options to make getting paid for your device straightforward. With an instant quote, it’s easy to see how much you’ll get for your device and compare it to other offers. Selling your device to a third party like The iOutlet will also save time and reduce the hassle of using platforms like eBay.
