Google Store offers trade-in credit for older phones with Pixel 11 purchases
Reported trade-in values range from $30 for some older models to up to $700 for a Galaxy S26 Ultra, subject to eligibility, condition and inspection.
Google Store is offering trade-in credit on selected Pixel, Galaxy and iPhone models when customers buy Pixel 11 devices, according to Engadget. The reported values depend on the phone’s model, storage capacity and condition, and may also vary according to the Pixel 11 model purchased.
Examples cited by Engadget include up to $100 for the original Pixel, $30 for the Galaxy S10 and iPhone 6s Plus, and $150 for the Pixel 4a and Galaxy S20. The iPhone 11 is listed at up to $200, while newer models include the Pixel 10 Pro at $600, the Galaxy S26 Ultra at $700 and the iPhone 17 at $550.
The reported offer could reduce the cost of a Pixel 11, which starts at $899, or a Pixel 11 Pro Fold, which starts at $1,900. However, the figures are maximum values rather than guaranteed credits, and the source does not provide a complete eligibility table or specify the market currency for all amounts.
Customers must provide details about their old phone, transfer their data, factory-reset the device and remove locks or passwords before returning it with a prepaid shipping kit. Google may adjust the credit after inspection if the device does not match its description.
Some customers may receive an instant discount at checkout, while others receive the trade-in value as a refund after Google receives and accepts the phone. Engadget also notes that Best Buy and Amazon may offer alternative incentives, including gift cards or a discounted Pixel Watch 5.
