I bought a MacBook Pro like on September 17th. Is there any way that I can swap that MacBookPro with the latest M1 chip that has released today ?

No cost. No

you have a limited 14 day return policy.

Apple Trade In - Apple

Apple is a business and had announced some time ago that the new model was in production and nearing release. Consumers have the right to choose when they upgrade which you did and your new computer is now "secondhand" and worth less than you paid for it although Macs that are looked after hold their value quite well. Apple would need to send it away for a "refurbish" to make it look and feel new. Phone an Apple Store and explain the situation: there might be a discretion to offer a slightly better trade-in than you see online but maybe not.

If you are affluent, maybe you can treat yourself to the new machine and forget about a loss made on the recent purchase. If money is a big consideration, console yourself that your present Mac will run better and faster on Big Sur and, even though it will be "second best", it will still be better than almost everyone else's computer.

I am looking forward to installing Big Sur on my Early 2015 MacBook Pro which I have to make do with for now.

Please note that Apple does not do in store trade ins for computers. And, the price that is initially offered online is only a rough estimate - the third party company handling the trade in will determine the final amount offered after a thorough examination.

Apple has a generous returns policy intended to address both "Buyer's remorse" when it releases new computers, and overzealous selling of more computer than you need.

If and only if you bought direct from Apple, you can return/exchange-for-full-value the computer you bought. The standard policy is 14 days from receipt, not longer.

No.

You can sell it and then buy the new one.

Apple does not accept the current production year models as tradeins.

You can sell it either locally or to an online reseller.

This useful comment would have been better sent to MohanVamsi whose question it answers although it is interesting to know that is how the trade-in scheme works.

My post actually is visible by anyone/everyone. And I'd appreciate if you did not lecture me needlessly.

Thanks and good luck.

I wasn't lecturing. I hadn't noticed that you are a very experienced site user. I don't always see replies intended for me but what you say is reassuring.
