Every iPad category has gained value, although the increases are relatively modest. The iPad mini and standard iPad both rise by $20, while the iPad Air gains $15 and the iPad Pro increases by $10. The revised maximum estimates are as follows:
- iPad Pro: $905 to $915
- iPad Air: $510 to $525
- iPad mini: $320 to $340
- iPad: $280 to $300
The Mac sees substantially larger increases, led by the Mac Pro, which gains $365 after holding at $2,195 in the previous update. The Mac Studio rises by $240, while the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air gain $120 and $90, respectively:
- MacBook Pro: $1,315 to $1,435
- MacBook Air: $705 to $795
- Mac mini: $620 to $645
- Mac Studio: $1,460 to $1,700
- iMac: $385 to $440
- Mac Pro: $2,195 to $2,560
The iMac Pro is the only listed Mac category left unchanged, remaining at up to $340. All listed iPhone and Apple Watch trade-in estimates also remain at the values from September.
The increases continue a run of higher Mac trade-in estimates this year. The MacBook Pro's maximum value has more than doubled from $690 in May to $1,435, while the MacBook Air has risen from $520 to $795 over the same period.
Apple's listed values are maximum estimates, with final offers depending on a device's condition, year, and configuration. Trade-in credit can be applied toward a qualifying new purchase or added to an Apple Gift Card.
