With the iPhone 17 launch bringing a wave of trade-ins, Revendo has geared up at its Basel HQ with a new teammate: MATT, an automated diagnostics robot that tests every pre-owned smartphone with repeatable, millimetre-precise routines, from cameras to batteries, delivering consistent, objective results. As the first company in Switzerland to deploy automated testing in day-to-day refurbishment, Revendo is turning precision into trust at scale.
Each device assessed by MATT and the Revendo team receives a dedicated Revendo Quality Label. Scan the QR code and you can view the handset’s actual test outcomes, turning what’s often marketing rhetoric into transparent, verifiable performance data. It’s a simple way to help buyers judge condition and reliability before committing, and a strong signal that second-hand can be as dependable as new.
Revendo’s ethos is reuse over waste: test, repair, and return devices to life with clear information and a one-year warranty, helping avoid drawers full of forgotten phones and cutting e-waste by the tonne. With innovation, Swiss pragmatism, and a robot named MATT, Revendo shows that “used” is not second best, it’s the smarter, more sustainable choice.
