Apparently, Apple trade-in price for iPad Mini 6 is higher than Switch. I'm referring to WiFi only 64GB. I will switch to Mini 7 then.

My only heartache is the Pencil 2... Probably I will sell it cheaply somewhere or to my sister whose Air is using Pencil 2.

I checked too on Apple Store online, WiFi + Cellular 64GB - trade in price at 1400. Think it should be higher.

Completely forgot about trade-in before reading your post. Turns out I can top-up around RM1400 (including new folio cover and Apple Care). I don’t use the Apple Pencil. Tempted to upgrade now. Will wait for some reviews. If confirmed that it has more RAM, then maybe I’ll bite.

Only thing I’m not sure is how the trade-in works for those outside KV who cannot visit the TRX Apple Store. I know you pay full price first and then have to deliver the old device to them before they credit you, but what I don’t know is whether you must mail in your old device before or after they deliver the new device to you.

I traded in recently my iPhone 15 Pro Max for iPhone 16 Pro Max. They arranged courier service to pick up the 15PM from me after I got my 16PM. I got to choose my preferred date for courier collection, I think they allowed 7 days after you got your new device. After that, they will inspect and grant you the trade in value and credit back to your payment method. When you place order, you will pay the actual price (before trade in price). Very easy process for the collection, I won’t hesitate to use it again.

Thanks sis. Very helpful. Good to know I can keep old device until new device arrives. Will wait for reviews first before deciding. So they will pick-up from your doorstep?

Yes, pick up from my doorstep or you can go to the nearest post office. Their courier partner is Pos Malaysia. For convenience, I requested them to collect from me instead. They will bring a box and everything. You just need to pass them the device, box and other accessories are not required.

For your information, I collected 16PM from TRX but I requested them to collect the old device from me. It doesn’t matter if you get your new device via delivery or self-collection from TRX, you can request for courier collection.

Additional point that if you order online, you can't return old device to the store. It has to be via courier.

Turns out Switch trade in offer is only RM40 less than Apple. I remember checking a few months ago and it was lower. Maybe they revised prices to better compete. On the other hand, Machines still kedekut, RM105 less than Apple's offer. Maybe I will try walk-in to Switch first. See whether they really will offer the listed amount or will taichi left right.

Can I use back the Mini 6 casings for Mini 7? I think yes? They look exactly the same.

I'm very keen to get the iPad Mini 2024 as my first iPad. I want to ask if 3rd party pencils like the UGREEN iPad stylus are compatible with this new iPad mini for simple tasks like signing and filling in forms in PDF format?

It could be me just unlucky but Apple trade-in credit does take a bit of time.
