Perfect experience from start to the end of set up. All data transfer from my old iPhone was completed without any issue. Great phone. Best experience by far out off all other companies selling used phones . If I could give 10 stars I definitely would. Please purchase with confidence.

Got the iPhone 16e for my husband, it looked like it was brand new. Nothing wrong with his other iPhone, he just wanted to upgrade. I would definitely recommend buying a refurbished phone from back market.

This is the 3rd time over the last 10years I’ve used backmarket. Great service again. This iPhone 16e has been 100% as advertised and no issues. Its exterior is in excellent condition and the battery has only done 9cycles and appears to be very nearly brand new.

I upgraded from an iPhone 7 (I know) 😳 so this phone is amazing. It looks like new/unused and is in great condition. I went for premium as it wasn’t much more of an expense for this option. Arrived quickly after purchase and I was kept informed with all stages. A charging cable was supplied. After sales and customer service are really good. Emails have good “banter” I was a bit hesitant about buying a refurbished phone but I am thrilled with this phone. The whole process was so easy. Definitely the way forward for me in future 😊

I needed to buy a new iPhone but I didn't want to buy a new one and I decided to buy the iPhone 16e as it met all my requirements particularly it's excellent long battery life. It's a really great phone and I'm really happy with my purchase. I have never used BackMarket before but the whole transaction was superb from start to finish. The process was really easy, I got a good price for my iPhone 11 which I traded in and every step in the process was communicated very well and the phone was delivered earlier than I expected too which was a bonus. I bought an iPhone 16e in Pristine condition and when it arrived it was immaculate, was first used only four months previously and after my trade in I saved c20% off the price of a new one. I will definitely be using BackMarket again and I could not recommend the company high enough for its quality of service.

Delivery was very quick. The iPhone 16E looks and works like new. The easy part was obtaining the eSIM and activating it. Unfortunately, the Move to iOS didn’t link the android phone to the iPhone so the apps and data had to be transferred by hand.

The iPhone 16e brings a fresh but familiar approach to Apple’s line-up and was released in September 2024. Standing just one generation behind Apple’s latest, the iPhone 16e delivers practical features and welcomed updates for those who want a modern iPhone without all the added extras (and gimmicks) found in top-tier models. It packs in the essentials, with a nod to everyday performance and dependable build quality.

The iPhone 16e is well-suited to users who want an up-to-date iPhone experience with all the essentials—think students, busy families, or anyone who just wants reliability without frills.
