YesAgain isn't a basic refurbisher. We are a professional remanufacturing and renewal company — and Certified Renewed Original (CRO™) is our standard.
Every CRO™ device is fully disassembled, restored using original-grade components, reassembled and recalibrated by technicians, then put through 40+ checkpoints and ~489 measurements before it earns certification. The result looks new, feels new and performs like new — backed by warranty, at a fraction of the retail price.
We are not competing with cheap refurbished sellers. We are the Apple of the renewed market — premium, certified, structured, trusted.
How a device earns Certified Renewed Original
Ex-corporate sourcing
Devices sourced from corporate and enterprise fleets — well-maintained, traceable and genuine.
Full disassembly
Each device is completely taken apart so every component can be assessed individually.
Component-level testing
Every part is tested on its own — not just a quick power-on. Faulty parts are flagged for replacement.
Cosmetic restoration
Housing, frame and screen restored to original cosmetic standard using original-grade components.
Reassembly & calibration
Professionally rebuilt and recalibrated so sensors, display and battery perform to spec.
Full Yes Check test suite
40+ checkpoints across 13 categories — ~489 individual measurements captured and logged per unit.
Heavy-load stress testing
Run under sustained heavy-load conditions to confirm real-world reliability, not just a passing glance.
Multi-level quality control
Independent QC stages re-check the work — nothing ships on a single technician's word.
Final certification & packaging
Certified, securely packaged and compliance-checked, then dispatched with warranty.
The Yes Check process, start to finish
The Yes Check process
Graded clean — top condition
High-resolution cameras inspect every surface and confirm a clean, top-grade finish — then it's marked YesAgain Certified Renewed.

Stripped down completely

- Display & board separated
- Battery health verified

40+ checkpoints · 480+ measurements
Behind every pass/fail, the engine records 480+ individual readings — display, battery, cameras, ports, sensors and authenticity — all logged against the serial.
Refinished to factory-fresh
Worn aluminium housings are re-anodised and refinished — restoring the original colour and finish, not just polished.
Rebuilt with genuine parts
Reassembled with verified genuine components, then re-checked end-to-end — back to how it left the factory.
- Genuine parts only
- Sealed & re-tested
- Final QC sign-off

Choose the grade that suits you
Brand new / open box
Sealed or open-box and never used — indistinguishable from new. Our top tier.
Near-flawless
Little to no signs of use. No visible marks at arm's length — looks essentially brand new.
Light wear
Minor cosmetic marks on close inspection. Fully functional and excellent value.
Visible wear
More noticeable marks, but the screen is intact and every function works perfectly. The smartest price.
Every grade goes through the identical CRO™ process and ~489 measurements, and carries the same warranty. The grade describes cosmetics only — never performance.
Authenticity & parts
Every YesAgain device is 100% genuine Apple, verified by serial number and IMEI and confirmed free of iCloud/Activation Lock. We never sell counterfeit, cloned or "compatible" hardware.
The only parts that may not be Apple-original are the battery and charging accessories. Where a battery is replaced during renewal, we fit a YesAgain-branded cell built to our own specification — manufactured to a rated capacity equal to or greater than Apple's original, and always certified to ship at 85% health or above. Any charger or cable included is a YesAgain-supplied, fully compatible accessory.
