    I bought a Sony Xperia 10 iii from BackMarket, refurbished in good condition, for a very good price! I was after a new phone (well, refurbished!) I spent days looking at all the Sony Xperia phone's available, until I decided on the Sony Xperia 10 iii. I was/am extremely happy with the phone I received! The condition was described as Good. But honestly, when I took it out of the very well packaged box, it looked Brand new!! I knew it only comes with a charging cable, so as soon as I bought my phone I bought an Official Sony wall Charging plug, just to make sure the phone is recieving the correct voltage when charging. I am very impressed with the phone! I have had a couple of old Sony Ericsson phones, years ago, and they were my favourite phones I've had. So glad I decided to go back to Sony, after having Samsung phones I didn't really like. The build quality is second to none. The phone looks incredible. The screen is slightly narrow with a 21:9 aspect ratio. Apparently a lot of people don't like it, but it is perfect for YouTube, or watching film's. I only have one little gripe with the phone! The volume isn't all that loud, through the phone itself or the use of headphones or ear...

    iphone 12 pro Fair grade 》 Iphone 12 pro excellent grade. I just want to say it my first experience buying used refurbished mobile. i have been buying brand new apple from more then 10 years and i'm the kind pf person who loves keeping the gadgets mobiles laptops in a flawless condition. i came across this site and accidently ordered a fare grade mobile which was very rough and according to the website description. After one of receiving the order I came to know the site has option to select grades so I immediately returned the device. Then I reordered the same phone from same seller in excellent grade and seriously I'm amazed with conditioned it really give you a brand new phone vibe. Cons: customer support not responds timely. no helpline no to call very canned responses. can improve packaging a bit battery health are okay first phone was 83 and the next one i reordered was 84 pros you can get a phone exactly according to your budeget 12 months warranty plus extended covers as well for 35£ very cheap recommendation. dont go for fair grade you wont like that but they have very clear details about each single grade so atleast go good grade or excellent. i got my excellent grad...

    So far I am absolutely delighted with my refurbished iPhone 13 it is everything it said it would be. It came very quickly and well packed. I haven’t yet received the refund on my iPhone 11. Once the money is in the bank . This is the second refurbished phone and an Apple Watch from Back market and they have all been excellent. The exchange refund on my iPhone 11 worked brilliantly. Money safely in the bank so upgrade achieved painlessly and for a reasonable outlay.

    Aye my refurbished iPhone 13 is grand. Phone came quickly and well wrapped. It’s a Fair model so it has bumps and paint scrapes but no dents or bashes. The battery goes up to 100% which I’m chuffed about. Refurbished phones are definitely the way forward. Has taken a bit of time going from a Samsung to Apple, no proper back button and the set up of picture scrolling and a few other things aren’t as good. Will probably go back to Samsung with my next phone but wanted to try Apple for once. Would highly recommend BackMarket, good little unit altogether.

    Decided to try out a refurbished phone and have to say i'm really impressed. went for an iPhone 12 in "good" condition and it's in perfect condition. Battery percentage is at 85% but i don't mind that as i know it will still have an original apple battery

    I was skeptical to order because it was my first time to order a refurbished phone but i am surprised when i received the it. I ordered fair yet it came with good condition. There are few scratches visible at the sides but when i put the phone case, it’s gorgeous. No damage at all in the front screen. Performance wise, in the year 2024, Google Pixel 6 pro is still a nice choice if you’re a casual gamer and it does what it supposed to do.

    I ordered a "Fair" refurbished iPhone 12 Pro Max and I am very pleased with my purchase. The phone arrived quickly and looks brand new, the only slight issue is that the camera has been unrecognised by apple as I think it was replaced but it works just fine.

    Was recommended by a friend I was using an android phone and was not happy I did not want to pay the full price for an apple phone ,but when I went to your site and the choices you have on offer was mind blowing, l decided to get an iPhone 13 Pro Max 512 gig in pristine condition I am what’s know as some one who can spot imperfections , when the phone was delivered I was over the moon with the condition it was perfect , there was not a mark on it and it was back to factory settings and I payed half the price I would have payed for a new iPhone , Ive have it now for a few weeks and I can’t thank Back Market enough ,the phone has turned out muck better than I could ever imagined ,I have shown it to a few of my friends and they were impressed by the price and the phone itself and one has told me his mum keeps breaking her iPad so guess where he’s going to get a reconditioned iPad ,they say you get what you pay for and in that respect I could not have bought better thanks Back Market hope to deal with you again in the future a very happy customer thanks xx

    iphone 12 was purchased for a family member and i chose the excellent condition handset. Phone was delivered within a few days and it was perfect! Screen and general handset had zero blemishes etc, it started up like a brand new iphone with the set up as you would expect with a new device. Of course saved some money buying a refurbished device but it also reduces the general environmental impact you would associate with a brand new phone. The only thing that would make this better would be if the phone came in an apple box. I bought one on line to put the phone in (a tenner online!) Would recommend buying a refurb through back market.

What is a refurbished phone?

 

A refurbished phone is any smartphone that has been restored to its original condition and performance. You might also hear it referred to as a renewed, reconditioned or restored phone, but these all mean that the phone has undergone a process of repair, cleaning, and testing such that it meets the same standards as a brand new device. If it's just a used or second hand phone, there is no guarantee that it will perform like-new and you accept whatever condition it is in.

A refurbished phone may be due to multiple reasons, but commonly it is because users have upgraded their handset with the newest smartphone, and opted to trade-in their old smartphone.

 

What to expect when buying a refurbished phone

 

First, understand that your device may have external cosmetic flaws depending on the condition you choose (Back Market offers devices of Fair, Good and Excellent quality). However, whatever the condition, any external blemishes will not affect phone performance and you can expect your device to perform as if it were just opened from the original box. You should also be confident that your phone purchase is backed by a 1-year warranty, meaning in the rare case that any defects arise (outside of accidental damage) within 12 months of your delivery date, then you're entitled to your choice of a repair, replacement or reimbursement.

Browse the wide range of refurbished android phones and iPhones on the Back Market website, and find offers starting from 20% to 50% off the normal retail price of the same phone if bought new.

 

Why buy a second hand and reconditioned phone from Back Market?

 

Refurbished mobile phones are still perfectly good, and all from Back Market are high quality, sim free, and overall cheaper than brand new up to 50%. Each seller on Back Market is subject to a strict quality vetting procedure to ensure their reconditioned phones are sold in fully working order, so there is no catch! but more importantly, you can help encourage others to save the environment by purchasing a refurbished mobile phone instead of a new one.

At Back Market we describe our grading system as the following:

Appearance: Excellent - the body will have micro-scratches, but invisible at a distance of 20cm, and the screen will have no scratches whatsoever.

Technical condition: Excellent - durability is the best, and chances of encountering a technical software issue are highly unlikely.

Appearance: Good - the body will have slight wear and tear and micro-scratches not visible from 20 inches instead. The screen will still have no scratches or any damage whatsoever.

Technical condition: Good - durability is above average, but chances of encountering a technical software issue still very small.

Appearance: Fair - the body will have visible scratches/dents, and the screen will have some scratches but become invisible when the screen is turned off.

Technical condition: Fair - durability is average, and technical issues still correspond to the quality levels required by our quality charter.

 

Better for your wallet and for the planet, a refurbished and cheap phone from Back Market is the perfect option for those who like to have the latest tech in the palm of their hand at a much more economical price.
