iphone tries to renovate old and new phones and sell them to emerging countries

"Sohu It News" Beijing time August 27 news, June, there has been news that Apple will launch the iphone to replace the old plan to cover the U.S. retail stores; Apple is mainly working with recycling companies, Brightstar, to allow users to immediately replace the old iphone with new products. According to Bloomberg, the old iphone will be refurbished and sold to emerging countries, reducing consumer procurement costs and thus preventing the equipment from being eroded. Since June, there have been no follow-up messages from Apple's "Old for new" program. Today, MacRumors learned from a number of sources that Apple is actually training for shop staff to prepare for the "Old for new" project. The report said Apple had sent the materials to stores to support the new project, starting with number 26th, the first batch of trainers would start training staff. Next week, trainers will also train other employees. When is Apple going to announce the project? Not yet, but Apple is expected to launch its next iphone on September 10, with new products including the iphone 5S and the iphone 5C, which may be announced at the same time as the old-exchange plan. The old trade has actually started. According to TechCrunch reports, in fact, in some Apple stores have begun to test the "Old for new" project. On the one hand, these shops are preparing for the final project, on the other hand, in the past few weeks the store has provided customers with transactions. Sources said the project did not cover all Apple stores and only some of the stores tested. Apple's "Replace with old" is the case: customers will be a good, screen-free iphone to the Apple retail store, Apple employees use the store Mac, ipad connection site evaluation equipment, and then the customer to answer some questions to determine the value of the device. The "old-for-new" process is similar to Apple's iphone recycling program, with the difference being that the Apple Store itself does not recycle its phones and that it covers other Apple products, not just the iphone. Product valuation is affected by some factors, such as equipment color, physical damage, LCD screen damage. Sources say the 16GB iphone 4 and 4S are valued at 120-200 dollars, and a well protected iphone 5 16GB product is valued at $250 trillion. Apple offers lower prices than some recycling sites, such as Gazelle, Glyde, and NextWorth. But Apple itself has the advantage of being "old for new", where users can complete a transaction by simply going to the Apple Store, and in the past they have to mail the product to the website and wait a long time to complete the transaction. After completing the evaluation, Apple gives the user a gift card, which can be used to buy new equipment, and the user can keep the card if there is money left in the card. Apple stores back old phones. It should be noted that only when a user buys a new phone at an Apple store will it be appropriate to "replace the old" item. Gift cards can also be used as a credit value for new devices, provided the user has an upgraded credit value, a process that involves operators. In other words, if the user does not upgrade creditValue, you may have to pay the contract termination fee to the previous carrier before you can buy the card as a credit value and transfer it to another operator's network.
