How do you prepare your tablet for trade-in in the store?
Prepare your tablet for the Upgrade
Before you trade in your tablet, prepare it for Tablet Upgrade.
- Transfer your files to your new tablet.
- Remove accessories and charge your tablet.
- Bring your ID to the store.
Step 1: transfer all your data
Apple iPad
Before you come to the store, transfer your data from your old iPad to your new tablet. It's very important that you disable 'Find My iPad' via the settings as well. Finally, log out from your accounts like iCloud.
Samsung tablet
Make sure you don't lose your data and transfer your data to your new tablet. Log out from your accounts as well, such as a Google or Samsung account.
Step 2: remove accessories and charge your tablet
- Remove the memory card from your tablet, if you have one. Does your tablet have 4G or 5G support? Remove the SIM card from your tablet as well.
- Do you use accessories? Take the tablet out of the cover and remove the screen protector from the screen. Only then, can we properly assess your tablet in the store.
- It's important that your tablet is fully charged. This allows us to quickly check whether the tablet switches on. It's also better for the battery.
Step 4: bring your ID to the store
Go to the closest Coolblue store with your tablet and bring your ID, passport, or driver's license. Without personal identification, we can't accept your tablet. The expert checks your tablet and determines the trade-in value. Afterwards, you'll get a discount on your new Apple iPad, Samsung tablet, or other Android tablet.
Note: we update our trade-in values often. As a result, the trade-in value of the expert can differ from the value you see on the website. The trade-in value our expert provides is leading.
