A couple of barely noticeable chips of paintwork missing and wear and tear micro scratches on the screen from being in pockets, otherwise the phone was in superb condition. It also came with 100% battery which was a big bonus. For a phone in "fair" condition, 'standard battery' and with 256 GB the price I paid was a bargain that I was not expecting.

I'm very impressed. Bought as a backup device, I ordered on a Monday and it was delivered on Tuesday. The device arrived in immaculate condition with 100% battery health. It's as if it had never been used and arrived with screen protector, protective case and charging cable. Exceptional value.

The delivery to activation was a doddle, I was happy with the condition as described, with a fresh case you can’t see the minor wear on the outer of the phone. Very happy all is working great and feeling good to help the environment by buying refurbished. This is my second iPhone from back market and I highly rate it.

Delighted with my 12mini. Fits beautifully in my handbag. Had to learn a few new skills as my last IPhone was pretty ancient. It was delivered so quickly and I was very happy with the condition. The case was a bonus.

I bought this for my son, who had broken his phone beyond repair. He absolutely loves the iPhone 12 mini, it responds very well and it does all he wants it to do. Oh and the new battery is great as well
