APPLE has raised its in-house trade-in values for dozens of iPhone models - meaning customers can get more money for their old gadgets.
But iPhone owners only have a few more days to make use of the offer before Apple drops its trade-in prices again.

So if you've got some old handsets wasting away in a drawer somewhere at home, now is the time to trade them in.
The offer spans 27 iPhone models - from the iPhone 8 right up to the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
iPhone 15 Pro Max devices will now get you a staggering £660 when traded in, while the regular iPhone 15 can get you as much as £410.
Even older devices like the iPhone 13 can earn you up to £270 in store credit - helping you shave a significant amount off your next Apple purchase.
The iPhone 8 will only earn £50 in store credit, though, as it heads onto Apple's dreaded vintage list.
The tech giant has upped trade-in prices in several countries as well as the UK, including the US, Canada, Japan, France, Germany, Australia, Italy, Spain and China.
However, the deal is only available until June 18, MacRumors reported.
After this date, prices will sink back to their usual levels.
While third-party trade-in services generally offer higher trade-in values, store credit can be helpful to die-hard Apple customers.

Alternatively, if your device is no longer available for credit, then you can hand it over to Apple for recycling.
Your device might not be available for credit if it is too old and has been added to Apple's doomed 'obsolete' list.
"Products are considered obsolete when Apple stopped distributing them for sale more than seven years ago," the company writes on its website.
"Apple discontinues all hardware service for obsolete products, and service providers cannot order parts for obsolete products."
It means it can't be repaired, as Apple no longer has the parts.
Apple also doesn't accept iPhones with a broken screen or other significant damage.
In both cases, Apple will only recycle the device for you.

Find hidden discounts with brainy new phone trick that instantly slashes cost of shopping – I've already tried it out

WHO doesn't love a discount? Sadly they're hard to find – but a new iPhone trick has you covered. Apple has just announced a clever upgrade for millions of iPhones that may be able to help you bag a top deal, and I've already seen it in action. 7 Your iPhone has a new feature coming that lets you 'highlight to search' Credit: Apple 7 You'll be able to quickly track down items that you want to buy Credit: Apple 7 Then you can snap up the one with the best price Credit: Apple I took a trip to Apple Park HQ in California this week, where I was able to check out some of the new iPhone upgrades coming in iOS 26 later this year. One of the big changes was an improvement to Visual Intelligence, which is an iPhone feature that 'scans' what you're looking at through the camera. With the new update, you can now 'scan' what you're looking at on screen. That means you can take a screenshot of an object you like the look of, and have it 'scanned' by Apple Intelligence AI tech. HOW NEW VISUAL INTELLIGENCE WORKS Imagine you've seen a lovely lamp in the background of a picture. You can screenshot it, and then use Visual Intelligence by scrubbing your finger over the lamp (or circling it works too, I found). Your iPhone will then surface that exact lamp and/or ones that look exactly like it. It'll list them alongside their prices on Google, Etsy, and other supported shopping apps on your phone. So you can then find the exact type of lamp you're looking for, and nab it from wherever is offering the best price. It won't just work with lamps: you could do this with a pair of trousers, or a drinks coaster, or even a sofa. Apple interview with Greg Joz Joswiak on new artificial intelligence, screening, hold assist, carplay, liquid glass and ios updates And even if you don't want the exact item, you can find similar ones – making it the ultimate "dupe" hunter. I tried it out at Apple HQ and it managed to track down a specific bird feeder almost instantly. And it offered very similar alternatives – all of which were varying in price. It was quick and easy, and took me from seeing the item to finding it on sale in a matter of seconds. 7 7 7 You can imagine this being a godsend for trying to find a nice jacket that you saw a celeb wear, or snapping up a nice bowl that you saw at a hotel on holiday. HOW TO ACCESS VISUAL INTELLIGENCE TODAY So when can you use it? Well Visual Intelligence is already available now, but it's only for telling you about items you've snapped a pic of – like identifying a dog breed, for example. The new screenshot-scanning feature is coming in iOS 26. IOS 26 SUPPORTED DEVICES – THE FULL LIST Here are the iOS 26 supported devices... iPhone 16e iPhone 16 ‌iPhone 16‌ Plus iPhone 16 Pro ‌iPhone 16 Pro‌ Max iPhone 15 ‌iPhone 15‌ Plus ‌iPhone 15‌ Pro ‌iPhone 15‌ Pro Max ‌iPhone‌ 14 ‌iPhone‌ 14 Plus ‌iPhone‌ 14 Pro ‌iPhone‌ 14 Pro Max ‌iPhone‌ 13 ‌iPhone‌ 13 mini ‌iPhone‌ 13 Pro ‌iPhone‌ 13 Pro Max ‌iPhone‌ 12 iPhone 12 mini ‌iPhone‌ 12 Pro iPhone 12 Pro Max ‌iPhone‌ 11 ‌iPhone‌ 11 Pro iPhone 11 Pro Max iPhone SE (3rd gen) iPhone‌ SE (2nd gen) Picture Credit: Apple If you want to use Visual Intelligence with your camera today, you'll need to press the Camera Control button. That's the button on the side of the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. If your iPhone doesn't have that, you can instead customise the Action Button or Lock Screen to do Visual Intelligence instead – or you could add it to your Control Centre. That's what you'll need to do if you've got an iPhone 16e, iPhone 15 Pro, or iPhone 15 Pro Max. 7 The new Visual Intelligence features are arriving with the upcoming iOS 26 update for iPhones Credit: Apple If you have an older iPhone, this feature won't work – as it relies on Apple Intelligence. Then just snap a pic and you'll be able to get info about what you're seeing. When iOS 26 lands later this year (likely in September), you'll just need to take a screenshot of an image, rub your finger on the item, and then search it using the built-in tool.

Its anti-ageing properties work to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, helping to smooth out your skin texture. The Day Cream works best when applied to the face and neck in the morning, before applying the accompanying Night Cream before bed. For those looking for a bit of sun protection they also offer a Day Cream containing SPF 30.

Using their Microsculpting technology combined with peptides and 99% pure niacinamide, it promises to penetrate 10 layers of the skin ensuring "visible skin regeneration". With an average rating of 4.5 stars on the Boots website, the product is clearly a hit with skincare enthusiasts. Some claimed that they always stock up when it's on sale, with eager shoppers able to purchase the product at Boots for just £15, reduced from its original £30. Advertisement One customer who said that they had been using the product for five years wrote: "obviously pleased with the ways it moisturisers and tightens skin." Another said: "Amazing cream, makes your skin feel so soft, smells gorgeous, nice light cream... people have commented on my skin since I started using it." 'Why do you need all that-' fans beg to know as Princess Andre shares lengthy skincare regime that costs a whopping £160 Others were impressed that a drugstore brand had created such a high end product. One wrote: "This cream initially feels like a high end beauty product with its luxuriously creamy consistency and pleasant perfume."

Similarly, their Ultra Rich Day Cream might provide an extra boost of moisture for those with dry skin. For those with sensitive skin, the Fragrance-Free version might be a better alternative, with perfume and fragrance oils sometimes causing irritation. If you're trying to be more environmentally-conscious, Olay have recently released refill versions of their most popular products. Advertisement Instead of throwing away your used containers, you can simply buy a refill pot and pop it in to the existing packaging, helping to reduce plastic waste and manufacturing emissions. Olay's entire Regenerist range is currently available for half price online at Boots.
