The resale market for Apple iPhones in Vietnam continues to show significant price depreciation for older models. The iPhone 11, which originally launched at 21.99 million VND, has seen its market price drop to between 4.09 million and 6.29 million VND, an 80% decrease. Despite being seven years old, the device remains functional for basic tasks and continues to receive software support via iOS 27, though it lacks 5G and Apple Intelligence AI features.

Similar trends are observed in the iPhone 11 Pro market, where prices have fallen to roughly one-fifth of the original 2019 launch cost of approximately 31 million VND. As consumers navigate the market, they face a choice between these depreciated older flagships and newer models. For example, the iPhone 15 is available for approximately 14.2 million VND, while the newer iPhone 17e is priced around 17.5 million VND, offering more modern hardware and long-term performance capabilities.

Newer high-end models are also experiencing value shifts. The iPhone Air 256GB, which launched in September 2025 at 31.99 million VND, has lost nearly 40% of its value within one year. As of October 2026, used iPhone Air models are priced between 18.9 and 20.1 million VND, placing them below the resale price of the iPhone 17 256GB. While the iPhone 17 has maintained its value with a depreciation rate of only 6% to 20%, the iPhone Air’s price drop is roughly double that of its counterpart.
