Best Time to Sell an iPhone
How Apple's yearly release cycle affects when you should sell.
Apple usually announces new iPhones in September. When a new model arrives, more people sell their older phones, and buyers' expectations shift.
Sell before the rush
If you already know you'll upgrade, selling before or soon after the new phones are announced usually beats waiting until the market fills up with trade-ins.
Don't sell too early
Selling weeks before you can get your new phone leaves you without one. Have a backup phone ready, or time the sale for when your new phone arrives.
Condition matters more than timing
A case and screen protector from day one can protect your phone's value better than perfect timing.
