It was noticed by setteb.IT that Spanish, Italian and French iPhone owner now have the benefit to take advantage of the Trade up with the instalment plan of Apple. This is a plan which allows you to buy a new iPhone by using the present iPhone that you have as a down payment and paying the remaining amount in instalments within a two year period. In the U.S.

this programme is available and is effectively known as the iPhone Upgrade Program, however here the monthly payments is said to be low for exchanging your old iPhone. For example, in France, if the person wants to opt for the iPhone 6s by exchanging their iPhone 5s, then they have to pay a monthly amount of €27.56 for the next two years; this means that instead of paying an outright amount of €749, the person ends up paying €661.44.

While the deal may sound good at first, however if you look at it closely, you will understand that this is something you may have to consider first and really think about the fact if this deal is something that is really beneficial or not. Well let’s understand how this works.

If you look at it, the deal is not that great even though the credit you get is interest free. Even if you think of it, you can go ahead and sell the same phone for twice as much on E‐bay; this is also one of the reasons why this deal is not that great considering that you are getting not even €100 for you phone. Another thing what you should keep in mind is the fact that the sum that will be offered to you would be based on the condition and age of the phone. This is why it is advisable to first go ahead and check out what the Apple Store will offer you before you think about going ahead with it.
