Refurbished vs New: How to Spot a Real Certified Device (Revora Guide)
Not all “refurbished” devices are truly refurbished.
Many sellers simply clean used devices and resell them — with no testing, no warranty, and no certification.
Here’s how to spot a real certified refurbished device — and avoid getting scammed.
1. Look for Certification Wording
Real certified devices include terms like:
-
“Certified Refurbished”
-
“Multi-point inspection”
-
“1-year warranty”
-
“OEM-grade parts”
Avoid vague phrases like “seller refurbished” or “like new.”
2. Verify Battery & Component Testing
A trustworthy refurbisher provides:
-
Battery health data
-
Replacement information
-
Diagnostic reports
Revora guarantees all devices meet strict quality and performance standards.
3. Check the Warranty (Non-negotiable)
If a device has no warranty, it’s not certified refurbished — period.
Revora includes:
-
12-month warranty
-
Free returns
-
Verified serial numbers
4. Inspect Seller Transparency
Reliable sellers show:
-
Real device photos
-
Condition grades
-
Model details
-
Included accessories
If the listing is unclear — walk away.
5. Buy From Trusted, Eco-Driven Providers
