Brilliant. Received the phone (iPhone 17e) the very next day. I chose the ‘premium’ condition and honestly it looks 100% new, not a single scratch or defect. I checked the battery health and it’s at 100% capacity with only one cycle. I basically bought a brand new iPhone 17e for £200 cheaper than actually buying it new.

The delivery and condition of the phone is excellent but be careful if you’re boycotting a certain nation, they contain a modem that was designed in conjunction with a certain nation and so I ended up returning it. Backmarket was not at fault for this hence the 5 stars

My device arrived in time and looks and feels brand new. The only difference is it didn’t come on an apple box.

Yes, the UK iPhone 17e (model A3634) has a physical nano-SIM slot alongside eSIM support. Unlike the US version, which is eSIM-only, the UK model supports Dual SIM (nano-SIM + eSIM) and can also run two eSIMs simultaneously. On Back Market UK, the available configuration includes the physical SIM slot, so you can keep your existing SIM from EE, O2, Vodafone, Three, or Sky Mobile without any hassle.
Every iPhone 17e on Back Market UK is sold unlocked, so it works on any UK network straight away:
Compatible with EE, O2, Vodafone, Three, and Sky Mobile
5G capable (sub-6GHz, 4×4 MIMO) on all major UK 5G plans
Dual SIM (nano-SIM + eSIM): keep your current physical SIM and add an eSIM for a second line or when travelling
Also supports Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Bluetooth 5.3
Apple Intelligence is available on the iPhone 17e in the UK via iOS 26, covering Writing Tools, photo Clean Up, smart summaries in Messages and Mail, and Visual Intelligence via the Action button. The next-generation "Siri AI," Apple's new branding announced at WWDC 2026, is currently in developer beta and expected to roll out publicly with iOS 27 in autumn 2026. Being refurbished makes zero difference: all features work identically on a refurbished unit.
The iPhone 16 is a strong phone, but the iPhone 17e brings a newer chip, double the entry-level storage, and a longer software support runway. The key trade-off: the iPhone 16 has an ultra-wide lens; the iPhone 17e does not.

Our guide to which iPhone is best suited for you covers every trade-off.
For most people, no. The iPhone 17e's 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED has a standard refresh rate (no ProMotion), 800 nits typical brightness, and 1,200 nits peak HDR. For everyday use, including calls, messaging, social media, and browsing, the difference from a ProMotion display is barely noticeable. Worth noting: the iPhone 16 uses the same standard refresh rate, so this isn't a step back from last year's base model. It only becomes relevant if you're upgrading from a ProMotion device and game heavily.
The iPhone 17e has a single rear camera, but it covers the essentials well:
48MP Fusion main camera, ƒ/1.6 aperture, optical image stabilisation, Hybrid Focus Pixels
2x zoom produced via sensor crop from the 48MP sensor (52mm equivalent); no separate telephoto lens
4K Dolby Vision video up to 60fps; Night mode, Portrait mode, Smart HDR 5
12MP TrueDepth front camera (ƒ/1.9), autofocus, Face ID
The main trade-off: no ultra-wide lens, which affects landscapes and tight group shots at close range.
Refurbished iPhones on Back Market start from £565 for the iPhone 17e, compared to £899 manufacturer's recommended retail price for new. Every purchase includes:
12-month commercial warranty
30 days to change your mind, with free returns
Up to 100-point professional inspection covering battery health, screen, cameras, IMEI, and data deletion
All units sold unlocked, all sellers vetted and approved by Back Market before listing
Three condition grades are currently available: Fair (from £565), Excellent (from £580), and Premium (from £585). All are guaranteed 100% functional.
Both the iPhone 17e and the iPhone 17 run the same A19 chip with identical Apple Intelligence support. The iPhone 17 adds a ProMotion display (up to 120Hz) and a dual camera system with an ultra-wide lens. If those aren't daily priorities, the iPhone 17e from £565 refurbished delivers the full core iPhone experience: 5G, Face ID, 4K Dolby Vision, MagSafe, and the Action button, at a noticeably lower price.
Yes. Choosing a refurbished iPhone 17e instead of a new one avoids approximately 92% of the greenhouse gas emissions tied to smartphone manufacturing, or roughly 77 kg of CO₂e per device, based on Back Market's calculations from the ADEME 2022 study. That covers the manufacturing phase. About 80% of a smartphone's entire carbon footprint happens before you ever turn it on. Buying refurbished keeps an existing device in use and skips that footprint almost entirely. Learn more about refurbished vs. new: why refurb is better.
