The speed is so much faster when playing online games. And it’s handling my fibre speed so good. And being able to keep it updated apple updates is great. Everything else is a bonus. And I’m glad I bought from yourselves again.

I am very pleased with the Mac mini itself and feel it represents excellent value for money. The only challenge was the initial setup. The machine arrived with a previously installed system, but without the password, which meant I had to erase the drive and reinstall macOS from scratch before I could use it. As someone reasonably comfortable with technology, I eventually worked through the process, but it took a fair amount of research and trial and error. I wonder whether it would be helpful for Back Market to include a short setup guide for situations like this, covering a few simple steps such as: What to do if a login password is unknown. How to start in Recovery Mode. How to erase the drive and reinstall macOS. The importance of having a wired USB keyboard available, as Bluetooth devices may not work during initial setup. This is intended as constructive feedback rather than criticism. Once I got through the setup process, the Mac mini worked perfectly and I am very happy with my purchase.

Fantastic machine which performs beautifully. Bought as a replacement for an old Mac Mini, 2014, Intel-i5 on HDD. Using as an additional computer to main for more casual use, including the benefit of running Windows for some older games through BootCamp. This one's lightening fast, compared; runs on the 2nd-latest OS, so I'm good to go for several more years. Price was a steal; very happy!

The Mac Mini arrived well packaged and in as little as 2-3 days. Out of the box, I was surprised with the condition as it seemed like new with only the a minor scuff on the corner. I would highly recommend 👍

Excellent - Website choice and details first class, selection made and ordered, it arrived next day. Slightly concerned that it was in a cardboard bag ( with an airbag inside ) as it looked like the delivery company had been kicking it around. As expected it was without a box or any product details. Power cord clearly not Apple. Powered up and has been working perfectly ever since. A few marks and scratches as stated in the advert, however as it sits hidden away that isn't an issue. Very happy with my first purchase from Back Market. If you are looking for an Apple refurb item and want all the "Apple Feel" buy from them and pay more. If you want a larger selection, quick delivery and no "bells and whistles" I recommend Back Market
