At Swappa we believe that a modern smartphone will easily last for several years. However, there are times when you may consider selling a year-old phone such as the iPhone 11 Pro. You may be tempted by the newer design of the iPhone 12 Pro, or you may be looking for something bigger, such as the iPhone 11 Pro Max.
But regardless of why you want to sell your iPhone 11 Pro, once you’ve decided, you likely start wondering how much the iPhone 11 Pro is worth? A few different factors affect used smartphone pricing, so keep scrolling to make sure you are able to sell for the best price.

How much is my iPhone 11 Pro worth in 2021?
Apple announced the iPhone 11 Pro on September 10, 2019, and it began arriving in buyers hands as of September 20, 2019, which was the official launch date. The iPhone 11 Pro is part of the 13th generation of the iPhone, which also includes the iPhone 11 and the iPhone 11 Pro Max.
The iPhone 11 Pro is available with three options for storage, 64GB, 256GB, and 512GB. The MSRP for the 64GB iPhone 11 Pro was $999 at launch. The 256GB model was priced at $1,149 and the 512GB model was priced at $1,349. This is to say the iPhone 11 Pro wasn’t cheap when it launched. But in a bit of good news — the higher launch price means you will be able to get more if you are selling in September 2021.
The table below shows what you can expect to get if you sell or trade-in your iPhone 11 Pro in September 2021.
Swappa | Apple | Best Buy | |
Apple iPhone 11 Pro | $650 (average) | Up to $500 | Up to $460 |
As you can see, there is a noticeable difference between the Swappa, Apple, and Best Buy columns in the table. This marks the first factor that affects smartphone pricing and put simply, the iPhone 11 Pro resale value is much higher as compared to the iPhone 11 Pro trade in value. Other factors that affect the price include the condition, the amount of storage space, and market demand.
The Swappa price is an average for all iPhone 11 Pro sales. This includes devices listed in Mint, Good and Fair, and for all storage options, 64GB, 256GB, and 512GB. The Apple price reflects a trade-in and is an “up to” situation, which means that is the most you will get. Similarly, the Best Buy price reflects a trade-in, and it is noted as being an “estimate.” The Best Buy trade-in value reflects a phone in Good condition with 512GB of storage space.
It can be convenient to trade in your phone, but you will always get more money if you sell your phone. Not to mention, you will likely get paid quicker when selling because a trade-in deal often means shipping your phone, waiting for it to be inspected, and then waiting for the company to process your payment. The other aspect is that when you trade in you often get paid in the form of a gift card, and that limits where you can spend your money.
