Sell or trade in your iPhone 12 Pro Max in Vienna
The iPhone 12 Pro Max was the first Pro Max with MagSafe and LiDAR and remains popular as a rugged used device. In good condition we pay a fair price for it. Sell it before the value gives way further.
How much we pay for an iPhone 12 Pro Max
| Like new, no scratches | up to 200 EUR |
| Good, light signs of use | up to 165 EUR |
| Visible wear | up to 125 EUR |
| Faulty, never opened | from 60 EUR |
An iPhone 12 Pro Max in mint condition is worth up to 200 € to us, a gently used one up to 165 € and a clearly worn one up to 125 €. Faulty but never opened, it still brings from 60 €. The big display matters most, because replacing that much OLED glass is costly. Right behind it: dents in the heavy stainless steel frame after a fall onto a corner. In our buyback it is the most valuable 2020 iPhone, 30 € above the 12 Pro.
Figures for the 128 GB version. After inspection, storage, battery and condition fix the payout.
Screen smashed on your iPhone 12 Pro Max?
The bigger the glass, the more likely a drop leaves a crack, and that is no reason to leave the phone in a drawer. We buy a faulty iPhone 12 Pro Max from 60 €, provided no other repairer has opened it, and we bring it back to working order ourselves. At MediaMarkt, whose trade-in partner is Foxway, a cracked display is accepted but misses out on the full price, and the payout comes as a gift card rather than money.
What happens after you accept the estimate
Your answers in the calculator give an estimate for the iPhone 12 Pro Max straight away. When you are happy with it, a free insured shipping label arrives by email, and you post the phone at the nearest post office in Austria. Our technician in Vienna inspects the large display, Face ID, the triple camera and battery health. Around 48 hours after that check, PayPal or your bank account receives the amount. The rules behind every step are in our terms for trade-ins.
Clearing your data from the iPhone 12 Pro Max
Back up the phone, preferably to iCloud, so moving to your new device takes minutes. Afterwards sign out of your Apple Account in Settings; Find My and Activation Lock switch off with it. Choose General › Transfer or Reset iPhone › Erase All Content and Settings and wait until the setup screen appears. Take the SIM out of its tray last. Apple’s support article has the full checklist.
iPhone 12 Pro Max trade-in explained
What is the iPhone 12 Pro Max worth as a trade-in?
For an iPhone 12 Pro Max without scratches you get up to 200 €, with light wear up to 165 € and with obvious marks up to 125 €. Faulty units that were never opened start at 60 €. Storage above 128 GB adds a surcharge on top.
What trade-in value does an iPhone 12 Pro Max have with 256GB or 512GB?
With 256GB we add 20 €, so up to 220 € in like-new condition; with 512GB we add 40 €, so up to 240 €. The 128GB version is the reference in the table. Your capacity is shown under Settings › General › About.
How much is a scratched iPhone 12 Pro Max worth?
If the scratches are only visible under strong light, your iPhone 12 Pro Max stays at up to 165 €. Marks you see immediately, or dents in the steel frame, bring it to up to 125 €. A cracked screen or back puts it in the faulty category.
Do you buy an iPhone 12 Pro Max with a smashed display?
Yes, from 60 €. A smashed or flickering display on an iPhone 12 Pro Max is fine for us as long as no third party has opened the phone. Mark the damage in the calculator to see the adjusted price.
How does battery wear change the price of an iPhone 12 Pro Max?
Over 85 percent maximum capacity costs you nothing. At 80 to 85 percent we deduct a small amount, below 80 percent a larger one, because the battery gets replaced before resale. Check your iPhone 12 Pro Max under Settings › Battery › Battery Health.
Can I ship my iPhone 12 Pro Max from Tyrol or Upper Austria for free?
Yes, the label is free from every Austrian region. You print it or show it at the counter, hand over the iPhone 12 Pro Max and the parcel is insured on its way to Vienna. Prices do not depend on where you live.
What does it cost to get my iPhone 12 Pro Max back if I decline?
Only 10 € for return shipping. If our inspection finds something that lowers the offer for your iPhone 12 Pro Max, we tell you what it is first. You then choose freely between accepting and having it sent back.
How do I prepare my iPhone 12 Pro Max so you can buy it?
Make a backup, sign out of iCloud so Find My switches off, then erase all content under General › Transfer or Reset iPhone. An iPhone 12 Pro Max that is still linked to an Apple Account is blocked by Activation Lock, and we cannot purchase it.
Is payment for an iPhone 12 Pro Max made in cash?
No, only by PayPal or bank transfer, roughly 48 hours after we have inspected the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Transfers leave a record for both sides, which is why we do not offer cash.
Is Apple Trade In or Reparo better for an iPhone 12 Pro Max?
It depends on what you want. Apple Trade In gives credit towards a new Apple device or an Apple Gift Card, not money. We pay the money for your iPhone 12 Pro Max to your PayPal or bank account and also accept it with a broken screen.
Does the original box add value to my iPhone 12 Pro Max?
A little. Box and cable raise the offer by a small bonus in the calculator. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is bought without them as well; cases and chargers stay with you.
How long is the iPhone 12 Pro Max still worth selling?
As long as it works, it has a clear resale value, and a faulty one still earns from 60 €. Prices for older models usually drop over time, so selling an iPhone 12 Pro Max you no longer use sooner tends to pay more than waiting.
Does a dented corner on the iPhone 12 Pro Max reduce the offer?
Yes. A dent in the steel frame often goes with a hairline crack at the edge of the display, which our technician checks carefully. Without further damage, a dented iPhone 12 Pro Max usually lands in the visible-wear band of up to 125 €.
Will you take an iPhone 12 Pro Max that fell into water?
Yes, if it was not opened afterwards. We treat corrosion on the board in our own workshop wherever possible. Select water damage in the calculator so your iPhone 12 Pro Max estimate is realistic.
Where do I sell my iPhone 12 Pro Max in Vienna?
On this page: work out the price, post the iPhone 12 Pro Max with the free insured label to our Vienna workshop and wait around 48 hours after the inspection for the money. Trade-ins run only by post, not over a counter.
