5 Signs a Device Is Truly Certified Refurbished (Revora Buyer Guide)

Not all “refurbished” devices online are genuine.
Some are simply used phones cleaned up for resale — no testing, no guarantee, no long-term reliability.

Here are the 5 things to check to make sure you’re buying a real certified refurbished device.


1. Warranty Included (Minimum 6–12 Months)

No warranty = not certified.
Revora includes a 12-month warranty with every device.


2. Multi-Point Testing Documentation

A real refurbisher provides detailed checks:

  • Battery

  • Screen

  • Buttons

  • Connectivity

  • Cameras

  • Sensors

Revora performs a 40-step inspection on all devices.


3. Verified Seller With Real Reviews

Avoid random marketplace sellers.
Choose companies with transparency, photos, and official certification.


4. Condition Grading

Certified devices are graded honestly (A, B, C).
If a listing says “perfect condition” with no details — red flag.


5. Clean IMEI & Unlocked Device

A certified refurbisher guarantees:

  • No carrier locks

  • No iCloud locks

  • Clean IMEI

  • Fully unlocked for all networks
