Samsung started accepting pre-orders for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 yesterday, with prices starting at $1,899. The company is offering enhanced trade-in values during the pre-order period, making it an attractive time for iPhone owners to switch to the foldable device without waiting for a rumored foldable iPhone.
iPhone 17 Pro Max fetches the highest trade-in value
Among Apple devices, the iPhone 17 Pro Max commands the top trade-in amount of $550. The iPhone 16 Pro Max nets $490, while the iPhone 15 Pro Max receives $340. Standard models also earn solid returns: the iPhone 17 (non-Pro) gets $360, the iPhone 16 Pro and Plus are valued at $355 and $340 respectively. For those holding an iPhone 16, Samsung offers $310. Even older models hold value: the iPhone 15 nets $215, the iPhone 14 Pro Max gets $240, and the iPhone 13 Mini earns $100. These trade-in values apply exclusively to purchases made through Samsung's online store and are deducted instantly from the total price.

How the trade-in process works and key warnings
The trade-in amount is subtracted from the device total immediately. For instance, trading an iPhone 17 Pro Max brings the Galaxy Z Fold 8 price down to $1,349 before tax. It is important to note that if the trade-in device is not shipped after the new phone arrives, Samsung may remotely disable the Galaxy Z Fold 8. Pre-orders run until the official launch on August 7, 2026. For additional discounts on the Galaxy Watch 9, check out the related article on our site.
