What changes your number

  • Carrier lock. An unlocked iPhone 15 Pro Max (256GB) is worth $80 more than a carrier-locked one in top condition. How to check.
  • Condition. One cracked panel is grade C: $330 instead of $400 for the 1TB. How we grade.
  • Battery. At 79% health or below it is a flat $20 off, whatever the grade.
  • Damage. A device that will not power on, or one with water damage, is usually still bought at parts value rather than turned away. Selling a phone that won't turn on.
  • Apple Account. Sign out and turn off Find My before you sell; we cannot buy a device still locked to an account. Step by step.

Frequently asked questions

How much is an iPhone 15 Pro Max worth?

As of Oct 14, 2026, our cash offer for an iPhone 15 Pro Max goes up to $400 for a 1TB unlocked unit in top condition, and starts at $365 for the 256GB. Condition and carrier lock move the number; the quote gives your exact offer.

How much is a cracked iPhone 15 Pro Max worth?

A cracked screen or a cracked back, one of the two, is grade C: $330 for the 1TB unlocked as of Oct 14, 2026. Both sides cracked, or screen damage like lines or dots even with no crack, is grade D ($230).

Do you buy a carrier-locked iPhone 15 Pro Max?

Yes. Choose carrier locked in the quote and the offer reflects it. In top condition a locked 256GB is $80 less than unlocked.

Can I sell an iPhone 15 Pro Max I am still making payments on?

Yes. A device with payments left prices as carrier locked rather than unlocked, which for the 256GB is $80 less in top condition. Nothing else about the offer changes.

Does battery health change what an iPhone 15 Pro Max is worth?

A battery at 79% maximum capacity or below is a flat $20 off at any grade, and it does not change the grade itself. So a 1TB unlocked iPhone 15 Pro Max in top condition comes to $380. A battery under 80% still sells. You can check yours in Settings, Battery, Battery Health & Charging.

Do you buy an iPhone 15 Pro Max that will not turn on, or one with water damage?

Usually yes, at parts value. Water damage is fine for parts pricing; what matters is whether it powers on at all. Say so in the quote and we will price it. The one case we pass on is a device too far gone to use for parts.

Can I sell an iPhone 15 Pro Max that is still locked to an Apple Account?

Not while it is locked. We cannot buy a device that is still iCloud or Activation Locked. Sign out of iCloud and turn off Find My and we will quote it. Signing out before we meet does not change the offer.

How do I get paid for an iPhone 15 Pro Max?

Cash when we meet in person, or Zelle, Cash App or PayPal. Zelle and Cash App usually land the same day. There is no obligation until you accept.

Where can I sell an iPhone 15 Pro Max near me?

We meet sellers across Los Angeles and Orange County, either at our secured facility in Long Beach or at a public spot near you. The Inland Empire and North San Diego County are covered by scheduled weekly meetups and pickups, and a custom meetup or delivery is available for a small fee. You can also ship it with a prepaid label we send.
