TechUp

TechUp, refurbished technology based in Auckland

TechUp is a New Zealand store dedicated to selling refurbished and second-hand electronic devices. Its catalogue focuses on mobile phones, laptops, tablets and smartwatches, plus a line of accessories. The company presents itself as based in Auckland and stresses that all devices are genuine, with no clones or activation-locked units.

The commercial proposition rests on three elements that the firm explicitly highlights: devices undergo professional testing before sale, each device comes with a one-year warranty and shipping is within New Zealand. The site states that shipping is free from $99.

Brands and product families available

The catalogue is organised by manufacturer and generation, with inventory varying by model. Phones include the iPhone series, from older models such as the iPhone 8 to the most recent generations, and Samsung Galaxy across its different families (S, Note, A and Z). Google Pixel, Oppo and OnePlus are also listed.

In computing, the store offers MacBook Air and MacBook Pro from various years, iMac and Mac Mini, as well as laptops and Chromebooks from brands such as Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft and Samsung. The tablet section includes iPad in its standard, Pro, Air and Mini versions, Samsung Galaxy Tab and Microsoft Surface.

Smartwatches complete the main offering, with Apple Watch (including the Ultra model), Samsung Galaxy Watch, Pixel Watch, Garmin, Hoco and Colmi. In audio, headphones are sold from Apple, Bose, Samsung, Sennheiser, Google, Beats and JBL, among other brands.

Accessories and device protection

Alongside the devices, TechUp maintains an accessories section covering screen protectors for iPhone, Samsung, Google Pixel and Huawei, phone cases for various generations, tablet cases and laptop bags. Original Apple accessories such as Apple Pencil, keyboards, mice, power adapters, cables and watch straps are also offered.

The catalogue is completed with chargers, adapters and power accessories, Samsung accessories, speakers, peripherals and gaming products. The store also has an extended warranty service called Tech Protect.

Buying and selling used devices

The company also buys devices from individuals: the site includes an option to sell your device and another to trade it in as part of the payment for a purchase. This activity falls under its status as a second-hand dealer, registered in accordance with New Zealand's Secondhand Dealers and Pawnbrokers Act 2004.

Recognition and customer service

The site states that TechUp was nominated in the electronics category of the New Zealand's Most Trusted Awards 2026. The company maintains a local customer service and technical support team, with a phone number and email address published on its website.
