If the release of the highly-anticipated new iPhone model has you thinking about trading in your current iPhone for an upgrade, you’ll definitely want to know how much your current iPhone is worth. Or, maybe you have an older model hiding in a drawer at home that you could trade in for added value toward a new device. Either way, you need to find out the value of your phone first, then decide if you want to use the Verizon trade-in program to get the value of the phone applied to your next upgrade. Show
Gauge your iPhone trade-in value by model and condition.Depending on the shape it’s in (think screen scratches or cracks, port and speaker condition), the storage capacity and more, your phone could help you get credit toward a new device.¹ The exact value of your current iPhone is dependent on the model, memory and condition of the device. For an estimate, you can go to www.verizon.com/od/trade-in/ and enter the device info– you will then be given the market value for that device, or if qualified for a promo, you will be given a promo value which could be greater than the market value of the device. Simplify the process with the Verizon trade-in program.If you’re choosing to trade in your device, start here with Verizon's device trade-in tool. Once there, you’ll be led through a series of questions and prompts that will be used to estimate your device’s trade-in value, such as the model, its color, how much storage it has and what network you use. You’ll also have to evaluate the quality of the device. Is it in fairly good shape, or is it damaged? We all know if the device is well-used and well-loved, there could be some damage, but to what degree? You’ll be asked if the phone turns on and off, if the battery is damaged, and if the screen is cracked or broken. Verizon then quickly assesses the value of your phone and gives you a trade-in estimate. (Remember, it’s an estimate. The final value is ultimately determined when Verizon receives and inspects your device.) After submitting your device to the program, you’ll see if you’re eligible for any promotions, such as account credit or a Verizon eGift card that can be used toward your next device purchase — or even toward your bill. Also be sure to check frequently for trade-in promos that run throughout the year. Promotions change often, and some promotions can offer a much higher value for your trade-in or additional credit back. Check the Verizon deals page for a list of all our current promotions. Whether you’re looking for a great value on your device trade-in or simply looking for any deals on a new device, our deals page will keep you in the loop and up to date on our latest promotions and offers.

Every year a new iPhone comes out -- with the iPhone 14 lineup expected to be unveiled today during Apple's September media event -- and it can be extremely tempting to upgrade each time a new model hits the market. That's why subsidizing your new iPhone by selling your current or older one is such a great idea. Saving as much money as possible is paramount if you want to stay on the cutting edge of tech. On that point, there are numerous ways to trade in an old iPhone and earn hundreds toward your new one. Fret not. We're here to help. We've put together a list of the best places to sell so you can get a good price for your old iPhone. Below, you'll find three different ways you can make some cash, as well as when to make the sale and what you can expect from the process.  Sell your old iPhone to help cover the costs of your new iPhone. Angela Lang/CNET1. Sell it to a buy-back serviceLooking for a quick and easy option? Consider selling your old device to a buy-back service. Although it's not entirely without risk -- if the old iPhone isn't in the condition you said it was, for example if it is a broken iPhone, you may not get the full value quoted by the buyer -- it does minimize the time and hassle, especially compared with trying to sell it yourself on, say, eBay or Craigslist. There are traditional trade-in options like those offered by Apple and Best Buy (see the next section), and then there are buy-and-sell marketplaces like those listed below. Before you spend a lot of time hopping from one to another to get quotes, head to Flipsy, which compares US trade-in values at multiple buy-back stores. It shows you the payment methods, price-lock duration (that's how long you have before you need to send the phone in) and price based on the condition of the old device. (Because each buyback program and store is little different when it comes to "condition" definitions, Flipsy doesn't drill down beyond phone model, carrier and storage.) SellCell is another price-comparison service for anyone looking to score top dollar for an old iPhone. Flipsy makes it easy to compare buy-back rates and resale value from various services. Here, for example, you can see what an unlocked iPhone X would've gotten you in May 2020. Screenshot by Rick Broida/CNETIf you'd rather check out some individual marketplaces yourself, I've singled out some I think are worth a look. Based on what criteria? For starters, I looked for a TrustPilot "TrustScore" rating of at least 4.5 stars based on at least 500 user reviews. I also looked for speed and simplicity in obtaining a sample quote. My test subject: an unlocked 64GB Apple iPhone X in "good" condition. Note that the quotes listed here are what I received at the time of this writing; your mileage may vary. Decluttr may have the fastest quote-generator of any buy-back site. You type the brand and model of your phone, choose it from the list that appears and presto: Instant quote. (You may have to click a few times to change the carrier and the phone's condition.) It's worth noting that Decluttr's "good" option is the best condition you can select; it might equate to "mint" or "excellent" elsewhere. Valid for a limited time only, you can get 10% extra on all tech with a max bonus of $40 by using code CNET10EXTRA. TrustPilot score: 4.5 iPhone 12 quote: $425 BuybackBoss made it easy to get a quote, with only one head-scratching moment along the way: choosing the condition of the phone. In between "mint" and "fair," you'd expect to find an option called "good." But instead, it says "used." I mean, they're all used. TrustPilot score: 4.7 iPhone 12 quote: $421 Although GadgetGone may not have the name recognition of, say, Gazelle or Swappa, it has the highest TrustPilot score of the services I investigated for selling an Apple device, and it offered me the most cash for my iPhone model. TrustPilot score: 4.8 iPhone 12 quote: $431 I'll give an honorable mention to Swappa, which has a sky-high TrustPilot score (4.9) but isn't really a buyback service. Rather, it's a marketplace designed to connect buyers and sellers. Think eBay, but with a focus on devices like your iPad, iPhone or other Apple product. To list your older iPhone (which doesn't guarantee a sale), you must first create a Swappa account and then connect a PayPal account. You also set your asking price, which necessarily includes a sale fee, but not any additional PayPal fees that may apply. Worth the extra effort? Perhaps: Swappa recommended a sale price of $426 for my iPhone, while noting that the same phone had recently sold for $345 -- still higher than most buy-back services. But a marketplace is almost always going to net you a higher profit (see below). 2. Trade in for credit toward a new oneWant to cut out the middleman, so to speak? You can start by going back to the source. That can be either the manufacturer or a big-box retailer, the largest of which generally offer solid trade-in options for a new device. Consider two of the biggest fish in the pond: Apple and Best Buy. Apple's iPhone trade-in program offers an easy way to better afford a new iPhone, as phone trades net you Apple Store credit. For example, here are the current estimated trade-in values for select models, all of them in "good" condition:
Those rates are reasonably competitive for an Apple trade-in, but you should definitely shop around. Apple's trade-in program doesn't factor in how much storage your phone has, however, so an iPhone X with 64GB will net you the same trade-in value as one with 256GB -- which is very different elsewhere. Best Buy offers a trade-in program as well; at press time, a 64GB iPhone 12 in good condition would fetch you $290 with Pro variants offering higher values. (Taking an unfortunate cue from Apple, trading a higher capacity model in does not raise the value.) Curiously, the Best Buy trade-in program doesn't accept unlocked-iPhone trades, only those that come from one of the Big Four carriers. I selected AT&T for my quotes. As with Apple, your Best Buy phone trade-in results in a Best Buy gift card -- fine if you're a Best Buy fan, or plan to buy your next iPhone there. There will occasionally be additional promotional offers from Best Buy, which can add value to the trade-in. The key takeaway here: Shop around. There are plenty of services with program options that will buy your old iPhone or take it in trade, but you might do better selling it yourself. 3. Sell it yourselfSelling an iPhone yourself will usually net you the most profit, but it's not without risks and hassles. Craigslist is probably the riskiest option, but buyers will pay cold, hard cash for iOS and Android devices. The biggest challenge here isn't finding customers -- it's getting them to show up. Be prepared for flakes. If you do decide to use Craigslist or another in-person option to sell an iOS device, make sure you meet your buyer in a well-lit, public place (many police departments offer their parking lots as transaction sites). For the smoothest transaction, make the agreement clear prior to meeting -- your customer should know the price, the condition of the phone and its wireless carrier (especially if the phone isn't unlocked) in advance. I consider this a big step up from Craigslist, because not only are your listings free, but Facebook removes much of the anonymity from the transaction of your Apple gadget. You can check the profile of any interested buyer. You can also control where your listing is seen and by whom. I've sold lots of items this way, and while I've had my share of last-minute no-shows, most of the transactions worked out well. If you don't mind putting in a little work -- listing, shipping and paying a small sales fee -- eBay is arguably a better place to sell a used phone than either Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace. That's because it offers purchase protection, which makes people more comfortable buying from strangers. The downside? Fees. eBay charges a sales fee for products that are sold through its site: 10% of the final selling price. To figure out a ballpark selling price for your device, search for your model and check the "sold" listings. If there's a downside to selling your iPhone on eBay, it's the potential risk of buyer's remorse. eBay offers protection to both the seller and buyer, but customer service tends to side with the buyer in the event of a dispute. Scammers know how to take advantage of this. You can minimize your risk by documenting everything (including taking photos or screenshots of the phone's IMEI number) and making sure to get signed proof of delivery. When to sell your old iPhone: Right nowYour old phone is losing market value by the day. In fact, it's estimated that within 24 hours of a new iPhone's unveiling, your old phone loses up to 30% of its trade-in value. One concern is that if you sell your old smartphone immediately, you'll be phoneless until the new one arrives. Thankfully, many of the aforementioned buy-back and trade-in services give you a grace period (also known as a "price lock") of up 30 days after selling your phone before you have to send it in -- time enough, hopefully, to purchase and receive your new phone and get everything migrated over (including the SIM card -- don't forget that!). Since the iPhone 14 is almost here, this is less of an issue currently. What to know before you sell your old iPhoneWhether you sell by yourself or trade to a third-party company, make sure you prep your iPhone properly before selling it . Here are some tips:
You'll receive the most money for your phone if it's in tip-top shape, but you can still do well if it's in "good" condition: No cracked screen, no big dents or scratches in the casing, no water damage, and everything working well (meaning the phone turns on, holds a charge and so forth). If your phone is damaged, you can probably still get something for it, even if the device doesn't turn on. It's not worth it to repair a cracked phone screen before you sell, but if your screen is only slightly damaged -- a small hairline crack in the corner, for example -- you may want to sell it on your own instead of trading it in. An individual may be willing to overlook superficial screen damage for a good price. More phone advice
