The ordering process was easy to follow. The choice of phones was very good. The phone arrived within the expected time frame and it was is very good condition. This was the first time ordering a refurbished phone and I would certainly do it again.

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

New Galaxy is perfect, I'm not great with the switching stuff especially with all the wallet swap over, so that took a it of time, but that was definitely user-error! The whole process was very clearly described and it was great to know that my old Samsung would be recycled too. Great service-thank you :)

Excellent communication from purchase to delivery, which was fast and well packaged. Phone exactly as described in pristine condition, not a mark or scratch anywhere and looking brand new. I made a massive saving on buying a new phone at retail price, 100% recommended, I will buy from BackMarket again!

Got it as a replacement for my daughter who had an older refurbished model for years. She's very happy with it, and only wants refurbished now as a teen with ethical principles ;) ! I love the company myself and have had excellent service over the years!

This Samsung Galaxy A26 5G 256GB was my second purchase on Back Market. The experience, from searching for the right phone, to submitting the order, to receipt of the item, and finally the con urrent user experience was pretty flawless. Very happy with my replacement phone. I had been warned the box would have been pre-opened, but aside from that, the phone was clean, unmarked and has been working perfectly. The battery seems to rundown a little more quickly than I would have hoped, requiring more frequent charging (and yes, I do follow and action optimum battery life options), but other than that, I would not hesitate to give Back Market 5 🌟.

Great experience. The phone I received was as described and seemed like brand new but at a fraction of the price. The website was very good and the phone delivered very quickly. Cannot fault my experience.

The Samsung Galaxy A26 is a straightforward and reliable smartphone launched in early 2024. While it sits near the entry level of Samsung's Galaxy lineup, the A26 still offers useful modern features, including a crisp AMOLED display and a triple camera setup. In 2025, it’s a one-generation-old model that keeps things simple for those who value ease of use over flashy extras.

Key features:

Release Date: January 2024
Display: 6.5-inch Super AMOLED, FHD+ (1080 x 2340 pixels), 90Hz refresh rate
Processor: MediaTek Helio G85
Camera: Triple rear cameras (50MP main, 2MP macro, 2MP depth)
Front Camera: 13MP for video calls and selfies
Operating System: Ships with Android 14

Who is this for?

The Galaxy A26 is a safe bet for students, first-time smartphone users, or anyone who just wants an uncomplicated Android experience. It’s particularly well suited to daily tasks like messaging, browsing, and social media, without distractions. If you’re after the freshest camera tech or premium build materials, you might want to look higher up the Galaxy chain – think Galaxy A34 or A54 – but the A26 has the basics covered and does what it says on the tin.

Pros & Cons:

Vivid Super AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh.	Plastic build feels less premium than glass or metal alternatives.
