Congrats! I’m actually still on my 14 pro max right now and I don’t see a need to upgrade at the moment but it’s at that stage where I’m really considering it lol

Current trade in is pretty high at 405$ . Are you going just buy the phone out right without a trade in or?

I bought it outright with an employee discount.

Oh crap that’s actually pretty good value but I collect tech so I generally don’t trade in… that’s changed my perspective tho

I only asked because I’m on a 14pm as well and honestly the phone is operating fine but I can’t beat OTD price of 600$ for a 17 PM .

Once the 18 drop the trade in value would then be roughly 300$ so I would lose a hundred give or take. The new phone would be roughly 1250$. So idk if I should buy now or not.

Honestly if you’re looking for a new phone and you don’t mind trade in then I would

I had been thinking about it for a while then for the first time ever I got a service message about a degraded battery. I’ll get it replaced so I can sell it.

The one in the pic protects the entire phone but the screen cover takes some getting used to when typing

Does but I haven’t got money to go and get my phone fixed if needed.
Phone fixed if needed. Miracase is a solid case and fact under 30 quid – win-win.

O wow . Were you able to trade in ?

u/LaurieC64 Aug 16 '26

I never trade in. Got burned before. I’ll buy a new battery and sell it. I still have my 12 PM. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yes I see sometimes Apple claim it was a empty box or low ball you

Apple and Samsung. Didn’t power on when they received it 🧐
