iPhone Trade in

Good afternoon I have this question I am a sailor and I visit ports for a maximum of 20 hours. i would like to buy a new iPhone and return my old one.

1. Is it possible to do this in one visit to the offline Apple Store in Singapore and carrying a credit card or cash to exchange my old phone for a new one and pay less?

2. Are the Singapore offline Apple Store iPhones sold in world versions or Asian versions? Do they have eSim in them? I want to buy world version with eSim and 1 SIM card , not with Dual sim

You are not asking Apple here. This is a community of end users. We have no more access to Apple Stores' inventory levels and device types than you. Please contact the store in question for an official response.


Also remember that for ALL iPhones, even the regular warranty is only valid in the country in which the device was purchased. Do you want to return to Singapore for warranty service?
