How Your Device's Value is Determined

The value of your device is determined by several factors, including its model, age, condition, and current market demand. Here's how Microsoft calculates the trade-in value:

Base Value

Each device model has a base value based on its specifications and features. Newer models with more advanced features typically have higher base values.

Condition Multiplier

The condition of your device affects its value. Devices in excellent condition receive a higher multiplier, while those with significant damage or wear receive a lower multiplier.

Market Adjustment

Microsoft adjusts the value based on current market conditions, including supply and demand for specific models and the overall tech market trends.

Condition	Multiplier	Description
Excellent	1.00	Device is in perfect working condition with no visible damage
Good	0.85	Device has minor scratches or cosmetic damage
Fair	0.70	Device has noticeable wear or functional issues
Poor	0.50	Device has significant damage or doesn't function properly
