After buying the new iPhone 8, do you plan to sell your older one like iPhone 6s or 6s Plus to help pay for the new one? If you are, then there are some things you should focus on:
1. Back up your important iPhone files
This is the first thing you should do before selling your iPhone. You can backup your iPhone to iCloud, iTunes or upload the files like photos, documents to cloud. Or you can also follow below guides to transfer data from your iPhone to the new one or your Mac for backup. When you get new iPhone 8 or iPhone X, you can restore data from iCloud or iTunes backup to transfer data from old iPhone to your new iPhone 8 or iPhone X.
2. Erase personal data to protect privacy
After backing up your iPhone data to other places, then you should erase all data and contents on your iPhone. It's important to wipe all data from the iPhone you're selling so your personal photos, files, messages, etc. don't end up as a surprise bonus for the new owner. Keep in mind that you should delete your iCloud account before erasing everything and log out your Apple ID as well.
3. Sell the older iPhone to new owner
Though Apple has its own official retail store for you to recycle your mobile phone or iPod, but Apple's valuation of your iPhone will be lower than your expectation. You'll probably get something for your original iPhone by selling it on eBay or through a private sale.
After you buy iPhone 8 or iPhone X, unexpected things like video missing could always happen to your new iPhone 8 or iPhone X. You may lose some important files like photos, videos, messages, contacts due to iOS jailbreak, iOS update, accidental deletion, etc. It is too late to realize that you didn’t make any backups in advance.
