iPhone resale values are surprisingly predictable once you know the key variables: model generation, storage capacity, carrier lock status, battery health, and cosmetic condition. An iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB in excellent condition sells for a very different price than an iPhone 13 128GB with a cracked screen — and the gap is wider than most people expect.
The single most important factor is how many generations behind the current model your phone is. Each new iPhone release drops the previous generation by roughly 15-25% in resale value. An iPhone 15 Pro that sold for $800 used in September 2025 might sell for $650 after the iPhone 17 launches. The depreciation curve flattens around 3-4 generations back, where prices stabilize.
Carrier lock status matters more than you might think. Factory unlocked iPhones sell for 10-20% more than carrier-locked models because they work on any network worldwide. If your phone is paid off, contact your carrier to unlock it before selling — it is free and takes 24-72 hours. This single step can add $50-100 to your sale price.
The specific model is the primary value driver. Pro and Pro Max models retain 60-75% of retail after one year. Standard models retain 50-65%. Mini/SE models depreciate faster. Each new generation release drops the previous by 15-25%.
128GB is the baseline — moving to 256GB adds $30-60 to resale value. 512GB adds $60-120. 1TB (Pro models only) adds $80-150. The per-GB premium shrinks at higher tiers, but larger storage always commands more.
Mint condition with 90%+ battery health commands full market price. Cosmetic scratches reduce value 10-20%. Cracked screens drop value 40-60%. Battery below 80% health reduces value by $30-80 since replacement costs $89-129 through Apple.
Factory unlocked iPhones sell for 10-20% more than carrier-locked models. T-Mobile/Verizon locked phones have the widest buyer pools among locked devices. Always unlock before selling — it is free if the phone is paid off.
The current flagship holds value best. Desert Titanium and Natural Titanium colors sell slightly faster. Include original box and cable for top dollar. AppleCare+ transferable coverage adds $30-50.
One generation back, still strong demand. The titanium design and Action Button keep this model desirable. Battery health above 90% is critical — buyers check this immediately.
The Dynamic Island debut model. Two generations back but still a premium phone. 128GB is the most common and liquid storage tier. Deep Purple commands a slight premium.
The sweet spot for budget buyers. Three generations back with solid specs. High volume of sales means fast liquidity. Blue and Pink tend to sell slightly faster.
Budget option with A15 chip. Appeals to buyers who want iOS without the price tag. Limited resale ceiling due to older design. 128GB version sells for $20-40 more.
