IPHONE 14 PRO PAYOUT
We pay between $86 and $444 for an iPhone 14 Pro. Capacity, condition, and carrier are the three selections that set the price. Storage runs from 128GB to 1TB on this model, so the spread is wide.
An Unlocked item pays more than a carrier locked item (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc). On this model Unlocked is the highest price in all twenty-four squares of the grid. A locked phone is quoted on its own line, so set the carrier to the truth rather than the one that pays best.
The iPhone 14 Pro is the first iPhone whose screen never goes fully dark. It dims itself and slows right down instead, and keeps your Lock Screen showing. Apple calls that the always-on display. It arrived switched on.
The clock stays in the same corner. The widgets stay in the same row. Same pixels, same shapes, hour after hour, for years. OLED panels do not take that well. Pixels that show the same bright thing for thousands of hours fade unevenly and leave a faint permanent shadow behind. That is screen burn-in, and it forces Faulty here. There is no mild version of it.
The test takes a minute. Go somewhere dim and turn the brightness up. Open a blank white note so the whole screen is white. Look at the top of the display where the clock sits, and at the strip below it where the Lock Screen widgets live. Burn-in shows as a faint gray shadow of those numbers, or a dim rectangle in that strip. Tilt the phone and it stays put.
Now prove it, because a screen that is merely switched on looks like a screen that is damaged. Open Settings, tap Display and Brightness, then Always On, and switch it off. Lock the phone, wake it, and run the white screen test again. If the shadow is still there, it is in the panel and the grade is Faulty. If it has gone, your screen is fine and never was a problem.
The gap is large and we are not going to soften it. A 256GB in Good shape drops to about thirty percent of its price once the panel is burnt in. That is worth a minute of your evening before you quote, rather than after we open the box.
A word on how we price this. Apple shipped the always-on display switched on, so nobody chose it and nobody was careless. The most costly fault on this phone arrived as the factory setting. We do not grade on blame and we do not pay less because you should have known. We grade the panel and we pay for the phone we can resell. That is all a Buyback is.
Everything else is ordinary. Four capacities up to 1TB. The price you accept is locked for 14 days. Shipping is free both ways, inspection happens within 48 hours of arrival, and the money leaves the same day. A sealed phone is paid through PayPal.

HOW IT WORKS
Do the white screen check in a dim room before you touch the grade dropdown, because burn-in is the one fault on this model that decides everything and it is invisible in daylight. Then choose 128GB, 256GB, 512GB or 1TB, set your carrier, and pick the grade. Your Buyback price is then held for 14 days.
A prepaid USPS label reaches you by email. Move your number across to whatever you are using now, erase the 14 Pro, and wrap it so the stainless steel band is not knocking against anything. Any post office will take it. Change your mind before we pay and it comes straight back to you at no cost.
A technician grades your iPhone 14 Pro by hand within 48 hours of it arriving, screen test included. Matches your description and the payment leaves that day by gift card, PayPal, bank transfer or check. If we find burn-in you did not spot, we tell you the revised number and you decide from there. Every phone gets a Department of Defense grade wipe on arrival regardless.

IPHONE 14 PRO QUESTIONS
Capacity, carrier and condition. A 512GB in Average shape is $317. A 1TB in Good condition is $365. A 128GB with burn-in or a cracked screen is $86. The quote tool at the top of this page gives you your exact combination.
Two steps, and you need a dim room for both. Bright light hides it completely, which is why so many owners have no idea theirs has it.
First, turn the brightness up and fill the screen with plain white. A new empty note works, or any white image. Look at the top of the screen where the clock sits, and at the row directly underneath where the Lock Screen widgets go. Burn-in appears as a faint gray outline of those numbers, or a dim panel where a widget used to be. It does not move when you tilt the phone, because it is not a reflection.
Second, prove it. Open Settings, Display & Brightness, then Always On, and turn it off. Lock the phone, wake it and repeat the white screen test. A ghost that survives that is burnt into the panel. A ghost that vanishes was never damage in the first place.
Look at the edges of the Dynamic Island cutout too while you are there, since the area around it holds a static shape for hours a day as well.
Yes, at the Faulty price. Screen burn-in is on our list of things that force Faulty, alongside cracks and a battery under 80 percent, and there is no version of it that is mild enough to ignore. Faulty pays $86 at 128GB, $95 at 256GB, $104 at 512GB and $110 at 1TB.
We will not sugar-coat the drop. A Flawless 256GB is $365 and the burnt-in one is $95. A damaged panel is the single most expensive thing that can be wrong with this phone, because replacing it costs us most of what the phone is worth.
Quote it as Faulty and that number is yours. Quote it as Flawless and we will find it, because checking the panel is the first thing we do on a 14 Pro.
It will not undo anything, if that is what you are hoping. Burn-in is permanent once it is there. Turning Always On off is useful as a test, and it is worth doing on any 14 Pro you plan to keep for another year, because it stops the damage getting worse. For a phone you are selling this week it makes no difference to the grade or the price. Test with it, then quote honestly.
Count the lenses on the back. Three means Pro. Two means the standard iPhone 14, which has its own page and its own prices.
Two more tells if you want them. The Pro has the Dynamic Island, the black pill that floats away from the top edge and stretches when something is playing, where the standard 14 has a fixed notch. And the Pro's edges are polished stainless steel that reflects like a mirror, while the 14 has matte aluminum. Only the Pro has the always-on display, which is also why only the Pro has the burn-in problem.
Look at the left edge above the volume buttons. An iPhone 15 Pro has the Action button there, a small rocker that replaced the mute switch. The iPhone 14 Pro still has the flick-up, flick-down mute switch. That is the quickest test there is.
The frame settles it too. The 14 Pro is stainless steel and heavy in the hand at 206 grams. The 15 Pro is brushed titanium and noticeably lighter. If you want it in writing, tap Model Number in Settings, General, About: A2650 is the US iPhone 14 Pro.
Yes. Any crack or chip means Faulty, whether it is the front glass, the back glass or one of the three lens covers, and the size of it is irrelevant. A cracked 512GB pays $104 and a cracked 1TB pays $110.
For everything short of a crack, the ladder runs like this. Flawless is no marks at all. Good is wear you cannot see at arm's length. Average is light wear you cannot feel with a fingernail. Fair is heavy wear you can feel, still with no cracks. Pick the one you would use describing the phone to a friend.
Under 80 percent, the phone grades Faulty. Settings, Battery, Battery Health and Charging shows Maximum Capacity, and a Service Battery message on that same screen means the same thing. Above 80 it changes nothing at all. Worth knowing that the always-on display is hard on the battery as well as the panel, so 14 Pros that have run it since 2022 often sit lower than their owners expect. Check the number rather than guessing from how long it lasts.
Face ID that no longer opens the phone forces Faulty. Lock it, lift it, look at it, and see whether it opens. If Settings shows an error in the Face ID section, that is the same answer. The usual cause is a display replaced outside Apple, which is its own Faulty rule as well, so a bad repair can trigger both at once. On a 14 Pro a third-party panel is also more likely to be the one carrying burn-in, so test the screen at the same time.
That is one we have to say no to. Without power there is no way to check the screen, the battery or Face ID, and no way to clear your accounts and photos off the phone. Buying it blind is not something we will do. Send it in anyway if you want it dealt with: recycling is free, we wipe it to Department of Defense standards first, and it goes to a licensed processor. If you would rather keep it, we mail it back for nothing.
No, not until it is cleared. A phone with a balance running on a carrier installment plan or a lease sits under a financial obligation, and those we cannot purchase. Once the last payment goes through and the phone is properly yours, bring it back and it quotes like any other iPhone 14 Pro.
No. Every grade on this page, from Brand New to Faulty, needs a clean ESN behind it. Reported lost, reported stolen, blacklisted or blocked by a carrier all fail, and it is not something we can lift at our end.
The Apple Account side is fixable and it is on you to fix it. A phone still signed in to iCloud when it lands here cannot be bought, because Activation Lock ties it to somebody else. Signing out before you post it clears that in about a minute.
They are different deals. If your carrier has offered you a trade-in on an iPhone 14 Pro, read what it actually is. That value normally comes back as bill credit spread across 24 or 36 months, and it disappears if you switch networks. What we do is buy the phone. The money is yours immediately and there is nothing attached to it.
Which network the phone is locked to does move our number, though. Unlocked, AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon iPhone 14 Pros are quoted separately, and the gap between them is not the same at every grade, so choose the one your phone is genuinely locked to. This page shows unlocked, where a Flawless 256GB is $365. Color makes no difference either way, so Space Black, Silver, Gold and Deep Purple all pay the same.
Move your phone number to your new device first. Back up whatever you want to keep. Then sign out of iCloud, which is the step that switches Find My off and releases Activation Lock, and go to Settings, General, Transfer or Reset iPhone, Erase All Content and Settings. Enter your Apple Account password when it asks, because that is the part that actually frees the phone.
If you want to follow it screen by screen, our erase your device pages lay it out. We run a Department of Defense grade wipe here as well, on every phone that comes through, but do yours before it leaves the house.
Pick one of four at checkout. Gift cards are emailed and come out roughly 3 percent ahead of the rest, because most brands add a bonus. PayPal lands instantly and PayPal deducts its own 2.99 percent fee. Bank transfers take 2 to 4 days. Checks take 3 to 5 in the mail.
Payment goes out the same day your iPhone 14 Pro clears inspection, which happens within 48 hours of the box reaching us. The single exception is a Brand New sealed phone, which is paid through PayPal only.
Run the screen test first, then pick your capacity, carrier and grade. The price holds for 14 days.
