Phone is working okay. No scratches to it. Box is simple enough and packaging is okay. Because of the RAM pf this phone, it might be suited for elderly people who need a phone for calls and text only. Anyway, I only bought it to keep my roaming sim active and this is the cheapest that I could put a nanosim on. Otherwise, opt for something else if you plan on using multiple apps

Almost no signs of wear. The body may have very light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

So this is my second helping into Back Market, and just as the first time - the service has been really quick and it's a breeze to deal with this company. Sadly, the device I purchased on this occasion (Nokia C22) was absolutely awful - probably the worst performing device I've ever owned. To that end, a return has been processed - and this is underway now. Not to be deterred from such good service, I've made a new purchase for another device here on BM, and trust that this will see me through without any dramas.

Very slow. Clearly not enough memory to perform even adequately. Apps often freeze or fail to open. It was cheap, but that's about the only thing in its favour. I honestly regret buying it and could not recommend this model to anyone.

The Nokia C22 is a straightforward smartphone that focuses on the essentials, offering reliable basics for those who value simplicity. Released in early 2023, it might be a few steps behind the latest handsets, but its clean design and practical features make it a smart choice for everyday tasks and digital detoxers alike. If you’re after all the bells and whistles, you might want to look at flashier flagship options—otherwise, the C22 might just be your new streamlined sidekick.

Key features:

Release Date: February 2023
Display: 6.5-inch HD+ (720 x 1600 px) IPS LCD
Processor: Unisoc SC9863A (octa-core, up to 1.6GHz)
Camera: Dual rear cameras: 13MP main + 2MP macro
Front Camera: 8MP selfie camera
Operating System: Ships with Android 13 (Go edition)
Build: Tough polycarbonate frame with splash and dust resistance (IP52)
Connectivity: 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 4 (802.11 b/g/n)

Who is this for?

The Nokia C22 is spot on for anyone looking for a simple and sturdy smartphone. Think students on their first smartphone, older family members, or those who prefer unfussy tech for staying connected and doing light browsing. Compared to ever-more-complicated flagship phones, the C22’s straightforward approach offers less distraction and more peace of mind—it’s not for digital maximalists, but that’s exactly the point.

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
Practical for core tasks like calls, texts, and social media.	Basic performance—not built for demanding gaming or heavy multitasking.
Durable polycarbonate body with IP52 splash resistance.	Display is HD+ only—not the crispest out there.
Runs Android 13 (Go edition)—a lighter, simpler OS.	Limited Wi-Fi version (Wi-Fi 4 only).
Dual cameras for everyday snaps.	No 5G support—4G LTE only.

Why refurbished?

Choosing a refurbished Nokia C22 isn’t just about getting a pre-owned device—it’s about making a smart, eco-conscious decision.
