September 3, 2021 / / —
UpTrade has recently released a sales report of the most popular used iPhones based on its market data and research insights from January to June 2021. The company found that the iPhone 8 is still one of the most reliable and most popular used iPhones despite being several generations old. Behind it is the iPhone X in 2nd place and the iPhone XR in 3rd place.
Currently, the top 5 used iPhone models are as follows:
- iPhone 8 - 25%
- iPhone X - 20%
- iPhone XR - 15%
- iPhone 8 Plus - 9%
- iPhone 11 - 6%
"iPhone 8 was above $200 last year but quickly dropped below $200 this year. The price is a key driver to push iPhone 8 to become the top model in the used iPhone market. It’s also the latest model for people who love Touch ID.” said Marco Mai, Head of Operations and Marketing at UpTradeit.com. “2017 was a legendary year for iPhone. Both iPhone 8 and X launched in 2017 are at the top of the used phone market.”
According to the International Data Corporation, 55 million used phones were sold in North America in 2020 alone. That number is set to grow to 85 million by 2024. This shows that the industry is heading towards a more environmentally-friendly attitude that values refurbishing and reusing older phones and ensuring that they can last much longer. While there is still much excitement for new iPhone models, Apple’s commitment to supporting older devices shows that they care about all users and are adamant about their stance on becoming a greener business.
Businesses like UpTrade help to facilitate the trading and refurbishing of older devices. Customers can sell their old iPhones to the company, they are then refurbished if needed and certified with a full history report, and then they are sold at an affordable price to other customers. This helps to save the phones from being scrapped and is a more environmentally-friendly approach to purchasing a new smartphone or recycling an old one. In addition, UpTrade also provides photos of each phone that they sell, giving customers a better idea of its cosmetic condition with a detailed description and its history.
