hi guys welcome back to lk pixels what's been going on in 2020 live
i hope you guys stay healthy and safe iphone 12 lineup has been released for
the last couple months now and some of you might want to trade in your iphone to get a new one or
whatever it is the apple product that you have in today's video i'm going to be talking about
how to trade in your apple products basically the preparation and also i'm going to be telling
you about some tips and heads-ups from my own experience in the end of this video so stay tuned
first one is it worth it well i mean it depends on you whether you choose money over time or time
over money what i mean by it is that if you choose time over money then i think the easiest and the
fastest way to resell your product is by trading it in at apple store but the thing is if you
do it at the apple store you only get your money back in an apple gift card you won't be getting
any money back to your bank account so if you want to get your money back and don't want to buy
another apple product you might want to resell it on your own and also the benefit of reselling on
your own is that you might get much higher resell value than if you trade your apple products in the
apple store but it also depends on the quality of your product itself if it's damaged like scratched
or the camera of your iphone is not working something like that then you might want to
just trade it in in the apple store because they might still want to accept your device second one
back it up you always want to back up your file if you don't want to lose it so i suggest back it up
the night before or the morning before you go to the apple store
it's very easy to backup especially if you store all of your files in icloud for example from your
iphone just go to the settings and then tap your profile tab icloud and then scroll down
and you're gonna see pickup icloud and in there you can select back up now and it also
tells you when the last time it backed up your files it's really important to pick up your file
before you go to the store if you don't want to spend too much time at the apple store
otherwise you're just gonna waiting your device to be backed up at the store the last step the
third one bring your id and the device from my experience i couldn't use my passport
or any sort of id that doesn't have my address on it i'm not really sure why but that's just how
it is for the device you don't need to bring the box or any accessories that came with it we just
only need to bring the main device if it's your iphone or ipad or a macbook oh yeah here is the
heads-up you cannot trade in your macbook in the store you gotta do it online i don't know why but
first things first you want to check the macbook serial number because i tried trade in my macbook
pro before but after i checked it my serial number just couldn't be found i don't know why
i asked the employee if it's because i bought it in another country um he said it shouldn't matter
so yeah just be prepared if your macbook or any of your apple product couldn't be traded in and the
next one you might not be able to trade in your product if there is a crack on the screen like i
tried to trade in this ipad air before but because there is a crack on it he's uh the employee said
that he couldn't do it but that's weird because i remember one of my friends she wanted to trade in
her iphone 7 and i think there was a crack on her screen but she still got the normal price
so i guess it depends on the employee or the apple store that you go i don't know or maybe it's it's
only for ipad and it's okay for iphone i'm not sure about that so just keep that in mind and also
i want to remind you if you want to buy any macbooks or ipads or macs you can use your student
id to get a student discount so that's it remember the first one check the price first the second one
back it up and the third one bring your id that has your own address in it and the device so
that's pretty much it thumbs up if you like this video subscribe if you haven't already and bye
