5Â Things Our Technicians Test Before a Device Gets to You
At F8 Marketplace, we believe that tech items deserve a second life, which is why we sell refurbished tech. Buying refurbished tech can feel like a gamble if you do not know what exactly to look out for. That is why we are sharing this checklist with you. Every monitor, laptop, tablet, and accessory that leaves our facility has passed a rigorous multi-point inspection. We do not just wipe the screen; we stress-test every part.
Here are the 5 essential checkpoints our technicians look out for before a device is delivered.Â
- Battery Health & Cycle Count: We ensure that every battery holds at least 80% or more of its original capacity. If it does not meet the standard, we replace it with a fresh one.
- CPU & Performance Stress Test: We run benchmark software to ensure the processor is not overheating and is performing at its intended clock speed.Â
- Data Sanitization: We perform a military-grade data wipe. Not a trace of the earlier owner’s data stays on your new device.Â
- Display Clarity & Dead Pixels: Our tech team scans the screen under high-intensity light to check for screen burn or dead pixels.Â
- Touch Sensitivity: We use a grid test to ensure every single millimeter of the screen responds to your touch.Â
We do not just sell gadgets at F8 Marketplace; we ensure we curate the future of sustainable tech.  Ready to get a refurbished tech that fits your budget? Check out the F8 Marketplace collection here.
