Your old phones may be worth more than you think through Google Store trade-in

The Google Store has some of the best trade-in values for a new Pixel, whether you're turning in a Pixel, iPhone, or Galaxy device.

The top 3

  1. Smartphones with the Slowest Depreciation: Apple iPhones consistently lead in value retention, often losing only 25-30% of their value in the first year and retaining 60-70% through year two, significantly outperforming most Android devices due to strong brand trust, long software support, and consistent demand.
  2. Highest Resale Value Phone Models: Recent iPhone Pro and Pro Max models, along with flagship Samsung Galaxy S Ultra and newer Galaxy Z foldable phones, typically command the highest resale values due to sustained demand and premium features.
  3. Key Factors Driving Phone Value: A phone's trade-in value is primarily determined by its brand, model, age, physical condition (free from damage), storage capacity, carrier lock status, software support longevity, and current market demand.
