Once you have decided that you want to upgrade your iPhone, you can either do this immediately or wait for the opportune moment to sell it. Each year, we have observed from our data that locking in a price prior to the announcement of the latest iPhone series will ensure that you will get the best price possible when selling your iPhone.
This is of course assuming that the usual price tracking trends have occurred. This year, as it goes without saying at this point; it has been a totally unique year for market trends across the board, which meant that some pricing trends did not adhere to our expectations. However, by and large, prices have steadily increased over the summer months following the drop caused by the lockdown, which then made August the best month to sell your device at the time. In September however, some devices are performing better than expected.
We have found that in September 2020, it could be the best time ever to sell certain iPhone models due to some of the changes that we have seen. For some iPhone models, trade-in prices have increased in September alongside the annual hike in offers before the much-anticipated launch of the new iPhone 12 in a week’s time. Read on to find out more.
Unfortunately, we do not have only good news to give you, but we can at least get the bad news out of the way first. Despite the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro only being released last year, and these devices being some of the most state-of-the-art iPhones available on the market, there has been a significant drop in these prices between August and September, which is unfortunate for iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro users seeking an upgrade already to one of the models in the brand-new iPhone 12 series.
The models that have been the most severely impacted are the iPhone 11 64GB, the iPhone 11 128GB, and the iPhone 11 Pro 512GB. Last year’s iPhone 11 devices have already lost within the region of £30-£59. We anticipate that the trade-in prices for the iPhone 11 range will drop by an additional £50 after the iPhone 12 launch, and even further by up to £100 by the end of September.
