Following the recent announcement of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo, Apple has begun accepting trade-ins of iPhone Air and iPhone 17 models. However, the trade-in value for the iPhone Air seems particularly disappointing, especially considering recent price increases. Apple typically waits until a new version of an iPhone is released before accepting trade-ins, but this is not the case for the iPhone Air and iPhone 17, which are still being sold by Apple without newer versions.
Despite the iPhone Air starting at $1099 after a $100 price increase this week, Apple offers up to $585 for trade-in, the same amount as the iPhone 17. This discrepancy has many questioning the fairness of Apple's trade-in valuation.
