How to get the best value for your iPhone
Just because Apple will give you up to $320 in a trade-in deal doesn’t mean that Joswiak lied. Apple’s carrier partners have deals allowing you to trade in an iPhone 13 Pro or later and get up to $1,100 toward an iPhone 17 series model. Here are the trade-in deals for an iPhone 13 Pro:
- Verizon: Up to $1,100 off an iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro Max on an eligible unlimited plan such as the Unlimited Ultimate plan.
- T-Mobile: Up to $1,100 off any iPhone 17 model for customers on premium plans like Go5G Next and Experience Beyond.
- AT&T: Up to $1,100 off an iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro Max. You will need to sign up for an eligible unlimited plan.
