For refurbishers, trade-in operators and ITAD teams choosing one platform to test, erase and document a whole trade-in lot.
Vendor facts checked October 16, 2026, from each vendor's own pages and ADISA's public register. "Not stated" means the vendor's pages we read don't say it, not that the product can't do it.
Phones, computers, watches and AirPods, from one vendor. Phones, tablets, Macs, Windows PCs, Chromebooks, Apple Watch, Galaxy Watch and AirPods. Watches and AirPods run in the same Phonecheck 3 application and cloud as phones and tablets, and Galaxy Watches test up to 15 at a time on one station, as a recommended maximum. See how to test and clear watches and AirPods for resale.
ADISA-tested beyond phones. Phonecheck has passed ADISA's Product Claims Test for smartphones, smartwatches, solid state drives, embedded Chromebook and embedded Windows15. Of the five vendors on this page, its register entry is the only one listing smartwatches, embedded Chromebook or embedded Windows, as of October 16, 2026. See Phonecheck's five ADISA tests.
A record buyers can read. Each completed wipe on a phone, tablet, Mac, Windows PC or Chromebook gets a signed certificate of erasure, and the Device History Report shows finance and blacklist status, carrier-lock status, identity and hardware details, test and erase dates, functional diagnostics, cosmetics pass or fail, battery health and repair-history findings, also available as JSON for your own systems.

For mixed trade-in and ITAD lots of phones, tablets, computers, watches and AirPods, Phonecheck covers every type from one vendor. Teams whose work is mainly server and data-center drive erasure can look at drive-erasure tools such as Blancco Drive Eraser and BitRaser Drive Eraser412.
Both test and erase iOS and Android phones and tablets1. On ADISA's register, Blancco's mobile entry lists smartphones and tablets; Phonecheck's entries list smartphones, smartwatches, solid state drives, embedded Chromebook and embedded Windows1516. Phonecheck's Device History Report brings finance, blacklist and carrier-lock status, battery health and repair-history findings into one record.
Phonecheck, Blancco and NSYS each state Apple Watch testing16. BitRaser documents Apple Watch erasure24, and Piceasoft states Apple Watch trade-in valuation25. Phonecheck also processes Galaxy Watch4 and newer, up to 15 at a time on one station as a recommended maximum.

Start from your device mix. If phones are all you process, all five tools test them, so compare the per-device record, the lock and blacklist checks and the integration path in the table above. If your lots also carry watches, AirPods or laptops, check which tool covers each type and what ADISA has tested for it.
Every competitor fact comes from that vendor's own website, and every ADISA fact from ADISA's public register, read on October 16, 2026. Vendor offerings change; we re-check this page every quarter.
Bring your device list, and we'll show you how Phonecheck handles each type.
