When it comes to trade-in prices for your old iPhone 14 Pro Max, both Samsung and Apple are offering $500 for the device when buying the iPhone 16 Pro and Galaxy S24 Ultra. That figure jumps to $900 if you decide to purchase the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, which is $821 more expensive than the iPhone 16 Pro Max before all discounts and promotions.

Released in September 2024, the new iPhone 16 marks a welcome continuing shift from Apple towards having more buttons and physical controls on devices, reversing the trend for each smartphone generation to remove useful buttons and ports.

Enough to make you feel you have a brand-new iPhone. Note, though, that one of the biggest things in iOS 18 is the introduction of Apple Intelligence, though it won’t be available in this release. When it arrives, it will be for iPhone 16 series, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max handsets only.

The Apple iPhone 16 is finally introduced globally with key upgrades in display, processor, and camera. Today we compare it against the iPhone 14 and see how the latest Apple smartphone fares against its lower-priced sibling.
