Can I trade in my iPhones purchased in Korea at an Apple Store in Australia?

Hi! I have an iPhone 15 Pro (256GB) and an iPhone 13 mini (256GB) purchased in Korea. Can I trade these two phones in at an Apple Store in Australia? Because I want to buy a new iPhone 16.

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 18

You can trade in an Apple device purchased from the Apple Store in Korea when buying a new device in Australia. Apple's trade-in program generally accepts devices regardless of the country of purchase. 


However, trade-in values may vary based on the device's model, condition, and local market conditions.


Additionally, it's important to note that while Apple accepts international trade-ins, warranty and service support for new devices are typically limited to the country of purchase. Therefore, if you buy a new device in Australia, its warranty may not be valid in Korea.
