Apple has refreshed its U.S. trade-in program, increasing the value of many popular iPhones, iPads, Macs, and Apple Watches. The changes, spotted today, offer better credit toward new purchases \u2014 especially helpful if you\u2019re eyeing an upgrade to the latest models.<\/p>\n

While not always the highest payout compared to third-party buyers, Apple\u2019s trade-in process remains one of the most convenient: instant credit at purchase, with a prepaid shipping box sent later. These values can change, so act soon if you\u2019re planning an upgrade.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The biggest gains appear in the current iPhone 16 series, with the base model seeing the largest increase, as first spotted by MacRumors<\/em><\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
