As the launch of iPhone 6s nears; Bidness Etc explains why its a good idea to trade in the old iPhone soon
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is expected to announce the launch of the iPhone 6s, at The Apple Event on September 9. Consumers anxiously await the latest edition of Apple's flagship device. As the iPhone 6s launch nears, the key question in the minds of many iPhone users is; is it the right time to trade in the old iPhone? Bidness Etc presents some of the reasons why it makes sense to trade in the old iPhone.
iPhone holds a greater amount of value than other smartphones such as Google Inc.’s (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android and Microsoft Corporation’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) Lumia Series. The reason is not because it’s an Apple product but because it runs on an unusual variety of hardware components that are more reliable than those used in other smartphones. The latest iOS software will be available for different iPhone, iPod and iPad products. Just as the iPhone’s older version has its features, so the latest version has its strengths which should presumably trump the older technology.
The new iPhone has not been launched officially as yet. Once the iPhone 6S is launched; the price of previous iPhones will fall as many consumers switch to the latest smartphone. Gazelle, a phone recycling company, is due to offer an amazing deal to those consumers who want to give their old iPhone 5S, 6 or 6 Plus as a trade-in. The company intends to offer a deal whereby users can trade in a 16 GB iPhone 6 for $300 to $390, depending on the condition of the device and the network it operates on.
The offer by Gazelle ranges between $325 and $400 for a 16 GB iPhone 6 Plus; while a 16 GB iPhone 5s is priced between $165 and $200, by Gazelle. Apart from this, phone carriers such as AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and T Mobile also offer trade-ins. However, none of the wireless providers currently offers a deal as sweet as Gazelle's offers. Apple also intends to offer gift cards to customers who trade in their old iPhone at Apple Stores.
