Apple Lowers Trade-In Value for Select Mac, iPad, and Apple Watch Models in U.S.

Bad news for Apple users that were planning to trade in their old Mac, iPad, or Apple Watch to help finance a purchase of a new Apple device. Apple has lowered its estimated trade-in values for select Mac, iPad, and Apple Watch models in the United States.

Apple has left iPhone trade-in values unchanged. However, it reduced trade-in values for the MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, MacBook, iMac, iMac Pro, Mac Pro, Mac mini, iPad Pro, iPad Air, iPad, iPad mini, Apple Watch Series 3 through Apple Watch Series 6, Apple Watch SE, and select Samsung and Google smartphones.
