I guess Apple doesn't plan to take trade in's for their 16e customers. I wonder why? If it's because it has only been out for around 6 1/2 months then I guess we could presume that all future (e) models will not be allowed to be traded in at the launch of the next iPhone line.

Carriers will likely give more than Apple if you're due for an upgrade. My wife's 15 Pro is due for an upgrade this year on T-Mobile but she didn't wanna go through with it since she's happy with her phone.

I almost would prefer to sell my iphone instead after reading about Apple's poor handling of phone trade ins. You can't buy enough carbon credits to tell me it's okay.

I'm not surprised. I read, maybe here, that Apple would deal with tariffs by lowering trade-in values.
