Apple hikes trade-in values for iPhone 12 and later models for a limited time
If you have an older iPhone model, now might be the time to get a deal done. From now through June 18th, Apple has raised the trade-in value of iPhone 12 and newer models from a range of $170-$630 to $200-$650. Besides the model, other things play an important role in determining the value of your iPhone as a trade-in. Apple does ask whether your device is in working condition and if the touchscreen and back glass are damaged.
Additionally, Apple asks whether all of the buttons on your phone work, if the camera lenses are damaged, if the battery holds a charge, and if the body is free of dents and scratches. You will also have to reveal if the display is marred by black and white spots, distortion, and lines.
Apple has hiked trade-in values for the iPhone 12 and newer through June 18th. | Image credit-PhoneArena The new price list shows that the iPhone 15 Pro Max has been given a $20 hike in trade-in value up to $650 from $630. The iPhone 15 Pro also is valued at $20 higher as this device is now worth as much as $520 in a trade from the $500 Apple valued it at last month. Heck, let's put this information in a graph that makes it easier for you to understand,
Once you get your estimate on a trade-in value from the Apple Store website, choose a new Apple device, add the trade-in, and check out. Apple will send you an email confirmation explaining how to back up your data and how to prepare the device to be shipped. You can choose to drop off the trade-in device at an Apple Store or have it mailed in. You can also trade-in non-Apple devices by tapping on this link and clicking the button that says "Find your trade-in value." You then give Apple information about the phone you are trading in and you'll receive an estimate from Apple. For example, Apple will credit me $75 if I trade in my 512GB Pixel 6 Pro and buy a new iPhone.
Remember, the new trade-in values for the iPhone 12 and newer expire after June 18th.

The latest budget Lenovo Tab is once again available with a tempting discount
The Lenovo Tab is 10% off at the official store $179 99 $199 99 $20 off (10%) Lenovo's featured sale makes the latest budget-friendly Lenovo Tab an even more attractive choice for tablet buyers on a budget. The device is down by 10% only for the second time since its release, making it a bargain you wouldn't want to miss. Buy at Lenovo Receive the latest mobile news Subscribe By subscribing you agree to our terms and conditions and privacy policy Discounted for the first time shortly after its release, the latest budget Lenovo Tab 2025 is back on sale! Instead of increasing its MSRP (as it did with the Lenovo Tab Plus and other models), the official store is making this budget-friendly Android tablet even more affordable at 10% off its $199.99 asking far as we know, the promo has only gone live once so far, so it's quite rare. In case you're wondering, the first-time discount didn't top this one, either. With 128GB onboard storage and dual Dolby Atmos-tuned speakers, this device is definitely worth checking out, especially when it's $20 confusing name aside (this is far from the first Lenovo Tab model), this slate packs a punch for its asking price. Firstly, it sports a slim, all-metal design that makes on-the-go entertainment much more enjoyable. Also, it should deliver a decent performance with its MediaTek Helio G85 about the display? Well, it's no stellar performer on that front, featuring a rather modest 10.1-inch 60Hz display. Still, it's more than respectable considering its sub-$200 of the box, the device runs on Android 14 , but unlike some ultra-affordable Lenovo tablets, it gets two years of major OS upgrades. On top of that, security patches should continue for four years, ensuring it stays up-to-date for quite some there's anything not quite great here, it must be the battery size. The slate packs a 5,100mAh battery and supports 15W wired you can see for yourself, the latest Lenovo Tab isn't the best choice if you're looking for insane horsepower and superb visuals. But if you're a tablet buyer on a shoestring budget, we suggest considering this option. After all, it may be some time until we see a more substantial price cut than this $20 discount.

Useful changes made to the Google Messages app
Back in April we told you that Google was considering an update to the Google Messages app that would allow users to write and view up to 14 lines of text in the text field without having to scroll up or down. That would be a huge improvement over the current four lines of text that Google Messages allows users to read at one time. Yesterday, Google disseminated the update bringing the 14-line text field to Google Messages. I did receive the expanded text box in a beta version of the Google Messages app on my Pixel 6 Pro running Android 16 QPTR1 Beta 1. With the bigger field, users can type longer URLs allowing the recipient of a text to view the entire address at one time. In addition, tapping on the Gallery feature on the Google Messages app brings up a fullscreen viewfinder. Let's say you want to send a photo via the Google Messages app. Tap the recipient's text address and from the text field, tap on the "+" icon (found inside a circle) on the left of the field. Press "Gallery" and you'll see that fullscreen view from your phone's rear camera. Previously, you could swipe the screen up to see a halfscreen view including a small live viewfinder at the top of the sheet. At the bottom is a grid of recent photos. Google Messages now can fit 14-line messages in the text field. | Image credit-PhoneArena Besides including the larger viewfinder, underneath it is now a larger grid showing a series of recent photos. When you tap the Gallery icon, the focus (no pun intended) is now on the camera and the fullscreen viewfinder. If you want to see more of the photos in the gallery, swipe up from the bottom. You can also optimize the picture for chat (which sends it faster and uses less data) or send it in original quality (full media resolution). After selecting a photo from the gallery, tap on the small box on the right side of the top that says HD+ or HD to optimize the photo you selected. From L to R photo optimized for chat, controls to change optimization, photo optimized in original resolution. Image credit-PhoneArena If you don't have the Google Messages app installed on your Android handset, you can download it from the Google Play Store by pressing on this link. If you have an Android phone and are using the messaging app that your carrier offers, you might want to check out the Google Messages app. This is especially true if your carrier-supported messaging app doesn't fully support RCS which allows Android users to enjoy the following: High-quality photos and video sharing Read Receipts In-transit encryption during cross-platform chats End-to-end encryption during one-on-one chats between users who both have Google Messages with RCS chats enabled, and group chats where all participants are using Google Messages with RCS chats enabled Typing indicators The 14-line text field is available on the stable (version 20250518_01_RC00) and beta (android_20250603_02_RC00) versions of Google Messages.
