YOU probably knew that you can slash your new iPhone bill by trading in an old model at the Apple Store – but did you realise they accept Android phones too?
Here’s a guide to Apple’s very handy trade-in scheme that could shave hundreds off the new iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro.

How does Apple trade-in work?
Apple just announced four new iPhones at its special Far Out event in California.
Trading in your old phone – iPhone or Android – is a good way to cut down on the cost.
Apple will give you a quote for what your current device is worth, either online or in-store.
And once Apple has your device, you’ll get credit towards the new model – or a gift card to use at any time (minus extra trade-in credit).
You can trade in an old phone at the Apple Store, or by using a pre-paid trade-in kit that comes in the post.
Online trade-in usually takes about two to three weeks.
Apple has estimates of how much your device may be worth, but damage to the handset may mean you get less.

What happens to my old iPhone?
Thankfully, your old model doesn’t just go in the bin.
“If it’s in good shape, we’ll help it go to a new owner, diverting electronic waste from landfills,” Apple explains.
“If not, we’ll send it to our recycling partner, so we can save more precious materials and take less from the earth.
“And if it’s an iPhone, it could even go to Daisy, our disassembly robot that can efficiently recover the resources inside.”
