We all know Apple products hold up really well. market value once used for a while. For the user, this is good and bad at the same time. Well, because you want to buy the new iPhone this year, you can sell your iPhone for a good price even if it is one, two, or three years old. And too bad because if you are looking for a used one, for a little more you buy it new.
A study has just been published indicating that the iPhone 12 retains its value better over time than the iPhone 11. Without a doubt, the current one with 5G is more popular than its predecessor.
According to a new report released by SellCell, the current models in the iPhone 12 range retain their market value better than the iPhone 11, after the same amount of time since their launch.
In the six months since their launch, iPhone 12 models have lost on average 34.5 percent of their value, while in the same period after the launch of the iPhone 11 line, they lost the 43.8 percent of its value.
This means that the iPhone 12 models currently maintain their value at 9.3 percent better than iPhone 11 models for six months after their respective releases.
It is probable that the incorporation of the 5G connection on iPhones 12, this has a lot to do with it. The iPhone 11 lacks such compatibility, and it is a strong argument to curb sales today, in the midst of the 5G connection commercial campaign.
The iPhone remains the smartphone that retains its value better when usedregardless of the specific model. For example, a previous study also carried out by SellCell showed that the iPhone 12 is worth 20% more than the Samsung Galaxy S21.
