What each grade means for your channel
Only Activated
What you get
Unboxed and activated but never used. 100% battery, complete original packaging. As if a new phone was opened, activated, and resold.
Resell as
Premium / near-retail channels whose customers expect near-new condition.
A / A-
What you get
Used handsets, handset only. Original parts, not refurbished. Battery 80 to 100%.
Resell as
The workhorse grade for mainstream resale to end customers.
AB (changed parts)
What you get
Units from A/A- grade that we repaired. Usually a new display with no warning message, plus a new battery.
Resell as
The value tier for price-sensitive markets and repair-and-resale channels.
