Discontinued M2 Vision Pro Not Available for Trade-In

Unlike other Apple devices, the original Vision Pro with the M2 chip is not available for trade-in.

Apple Vision Pro with battery Feature Blue Magenta
The original Vision Pro with the ‌M2‌ chip launched in February 2024 and was discontinued upon the announcement of a new version with the M5 chip earlier today. Most high-end Apple devices, such as the Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, and Mac, become available for trade-in upon the release of a new model, allowing users to fund the purchase of the latest device while getting rid of their old one.

The absence of the Vision Pro from Apple's trade-in program is therefore peculiar, but likely reflects an unwillingness on the behalf of trade-in partners to accept it for now. Users of the original Vision Pro who want to upgrade to the new M5 version will need to sell their old device independently.

Apple logic - if you can afford a 3,500 VR headset that doesn't do much of anything, you can afford to buy a second one that does nothing faster :p
