My new iPhone 8 is great, it looks like new and works well. I'm very happy with the sound as my last phone was not loud enough and the sound on this phone is so much better, also the battery lasts longer than my previous phone. Very happy.

Easy purchase, fast delivery, fabulous quality device. Not a mark on it. Works as new, great battery health and my partner loves it. He's a massive iPhone 8 fan. So it was great to get him one that's like new.

I purchased a iPhone 8 and was very pleased with the product as looked as if it was New. The reason bought was a gift for my mum as her iPhone was experiencing battery problems. I would recommend this company to buy refurbished products

The iPhone 8 I ordered is like new. I’m very happy with it thank you. I had an iPhone 6s before and this one’s better. The accessory you sent was ok thank you but I just didn’t need another wire. So that’s the reason I’ve have scored that 4.9.

Bought a refurbished iPhone 8 64GB it was a grade A and it was in immaculate condition. Had excellent communications from the back market every step of the way. The package was sent speedily via Royal Mail and it arrived sooner than I expected considering. I highly recommend Back Market and I would definitely buy again. Thank you to everyone involved. 5-star service. Will definitely buy from this company again excellent service.
