Google’s Pixel 11 trade-ins top out at $1,000 with great values for older phones

Google's Pixel 11 trade-in values top out at $1,000, up from $800 last year, with the maximum value available for Pixel 10 Pro Fold or Galaxy Z Fold 7 trade-ins, while older devices like the Pixel 4a fetch $150 and the iPhone 11 $200. The higher trade-in values come as Google raises Pixel 11 series prices by $100 on the Pro XL and Pro Fold models, and Amazon offers an additional $250 trade-in boost while Best Buy provides up to $1,000 in trade-in value.

Amid a price hike on the Pixel 11 series, Google has delivered some solid trade-in values across the board on all four phones, including some pretty great values for older generations too. As RAMageddon continues to impact the entire tech marketplace – thanks AI companies – prices continue to go up. On the Pixel 11 series, that comes in the form of higher starting prices and higher base storage on the Pixel 11 and Pixel 11 Pro, with $100 price hikes to the Pro XL and Pro Fold devices. Seemingly to soften the blow, Google has some excellent trade-in values this year. For Pixel 10 last year https://9to5google.com/2025/08/22/where-to-pre-order-googles-pixel-10-series-to-get-the-best-deal-trade-in-value/ , Google Store’s trade-in values in the US maxed out at around $800. This year, that number is $1,000. Of course, you’ll need a heavyweight trade-in to get that full value. Specifically, either the Pixel 10 Pro Fold or Galaxy Z Fold 7. Trade-in values are also capped at the value of the device, so an $899 Pixel 11 will net you at maximum of $899 in value. The good news here is that there are some very good values for very old hardware hidden within the crowd here. Trading in a Pixel 4a to a Pixel 11, for instance, gives $150 for that outdated and impossible-to-use https://9to5google.com/2025/02/05/google-pixel-4a-battery-update-usable-charge-findings/ smartphone. Google will also give you $200 for trading in an iPhone 11, a 2019 release that’s likely to stop getting updates soon. While there are no crazy standouts as we’ve seen in some past years, trade-in values as a whole are solid, and there are actually some decent prices going around for older generations of Pixel, Galaxy, and Apple hardware.

In the UK, our Damien Wilde noticed that a Galaxy S10+ trade-in is worth €455 – it’s just $30 in the States. So, definitely worth a look there. You can also get good Pixel 11 trade-in deals at Amazon and Best Buy. Amazon is throwing in $250 on top of virtually any trade-in, boosting some devices above Google’s offers, while Best Buy is offering up to $1,000 with gift cards of varying values depending on what device you purchase.
