How we value your iPhone 12 Pro Max

Condition | Cracks, dents, scratches or hardware faults reduce the valuation. Stainless steel frames show wear more easily. |
Battery health | Lower battery health is accepted, though <85% may reduce the offer. |
Market demand | Pro Max models often attract stronger interest. |
Typical value bands
Category | What to expect |
