The truth is new smartphones seem to be getting more expensive every year.

Apple’s iPhone 11 Pro models will also lessen the Galaxy Note 20 5G cost by $650, but the highest discount from a Google Pixel smartphone is at $400.

The trade-in program still accepts a device with a cracked screen, but expect a much less discount.
The other requirements include, any device to be traded should be able to open to the home screen and function without any issues. Buyers should agree to do a factory reset before shipping the device. Screens and cameras should have no cracks and functions well. Lastly, the device must not be blacklisted.
