Getting the most for your iPhone 16 Pro
- Compare before you post. The same 128GB iPhone 16 Pro is worth £353 at one store and £442 at another.
- Grade it honestly. Every store inspects the device; if it is worse than described you get a lower revised offer.
- Turn off Find My first. An Activation-Locked iPhone is rejected or returned. Our preparation checklist covers every step.
- Check if it is unlocked. Settings → General → About → Carrier Lock should read “No SIM restrictions”. Why it matters.
iPhone 16 Pro trade-in questions
How much is my iPhone 16 Pro worth?
UK trade-in stores currently pay up to £600 for an iPhone 16 Pro, depending on storage, network and condition. A 128GB unlocked iPhone 16 Pro in good condition fetches up to £442 at Back Market.
Which store pays the most for an iPhone 16 Pro?
In our latest data Back Market publishes the highest working price, £600 for a 1TB model. The best store can change by storage and condition, so check the table for your configuration.
Can I sell or recycle a broken iPhone 16 Pro?
Yes. The best published price for a faulty or cracked iPhone 16 Pro is £195 (128GB, Back Market). Faulty prices assume the worst case the store lists — if less is wrong with yours, the store may pay more.
Can I sell a brand-new or sealed iPhone 16 Pro?
Yes, but none of the stores we compare publishes a separate price for a sealed or unused handset, so a new iPhone 16 Pro is priced in the top condition grade: up to £600 for the 1TB model at Back Market.
Has the iPhone 16 Pro trade-in value gone up or down?
Down. The best published price is £600, down £37 (6%) from £637 at our previous update on 16 September 2026.
Is it worth comparing trade-in prices for an iPhone 16 Pro?
Yes. For a 128GB iPhone 16 Pro in good condition, 6 stores quote between £353 (CeX) and £442 (Back Market) — a £89 difference for the same iPhone.
Does a network-locked iPhone 16 Pro get less?
At some stores, yes. CeX typically pays less for a handset locked to EE, O2, Vodafone or another network, while Currys quotes the same price either way and Back Market does not ask. The table above shows unlocked prices; the full comparison lets you pick your network.
