I love my iphone!   I have an Android as well, & the iphone wins hands down.  Worth every penny, so user friendly.  :)

To sell them, you could sell them on Craigslist, Ebay, or Amazon.  Watch out for scammers on Ebay, I heard that cell phones are a high scam item... I've been reading their discussion boards, there are a ton of threads on the activity there.

There are also machines in malls that will give you money when you turn in your phone. A recycling cell phone machine.   I don't know how well the return rate is though.

Good Luck!

I'm  pretty sure  a site called gazelle takes them and best buy and recycle bank.com has articles on that stuff .  And check the links under ecycling on the Internet

it will be best to trade old iphone back to your mobile provider... They usually give rebates or price cuts on your new phone/monthly bill

There are kiosks in the mall and you can turn them in. Check it out.

I turned in my old iPhone 5 for the iPhone 6 and they sent me a check in the mail for it like a rebate I just turned around and sent it back for some of my phone bill that month.

you can always ask bestbuy or sell it on craigslist. gamestop doesn't give you anything.

There are a bunch of websites where you can trade in your old phones. I'm planning on selling mine on a local yard sale site. I'll get ore money that way.

I have never traded one in. If I am upgrading it is usually because mine broke.

I have heard good things about  gazelle. Get some reviews as well estimates to find out what is your best option.

eBay or Swappa. They are great way to sell off phones and get money for them.

I don't know where you can trade in your iphone unless you call your provider, they may have a suggestion.
