Our 7 Strict Quality Control Steps



1) Physical Check 

Our first Quality Control checking comprises of 2 sections. This is where our quality control team checks for any physical defects.



Section 1: Physical Section

We have our mobile phones physically (housing & casing) checked at eye level for dents, scratches, discoloration and defects. Even the slightest of defect will be rejected by our QC team, to be converted and sold in our pre-owned sections.

Section 2: Buttons Section

Every phone has at least one physical button. Be it the power button, volume button or navigation button. We will press and check every of these buttons at least TWICE to make sure it functions before passing it.

We take note on the battery's currenty percentage and make sure the battery's percantage is increased by at least 40% - 60% after an hour of charging.

Section 2: Leaving a battery for on standby mode for an hour

We leave the mobile phone on standby mode to make sure at least there is a 3% - 5% drop of battery percentange. This shows that the battery is functioning normally.
