Sell Your Used iPhone for Cash

How much is a used iPhone worth in 2026?

iPhones hold their value better than any other smartphone — a well-kept model typically keeps 50–60% of its original price after a year, compared with 40–50% for most Android flagships. What you're offered comes down to the model generation, storage tier, physical condition, battery health, and whether the phone is carrier-unlocked. Pro and Pro Max models with larger storage consistently earn the highest payouts.

What affects your iPhone's resale value

• Model & generation: Newer chips and Pro-tier models depreciate the slowest and command the top offers.
• Storage: 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB tiers add meaningfully to your quote over the base 128GB.
• Condition & screen: Cracks and deep scratches lower the offer but never make the phone worthless — the parts still have value.
• Carrier lock & battery: Unlocked iPhones and 80%+ battery health earn the most; a locked phone or degraded battery reduces the payout.

Because iPhones depreciate slowly, waiting a few weeks costs little — but a phone sitting unused still loses value each quarter as new models launch. GadgetRenu pays real cash (never gift cards) and locks your quote for 14 days.
