I was concerned that by buying a reconditioned device online I would have difficulty transferring data and apps from my old phone. However, the on-screen instructions were very clear, and I was able to set up the Galaxy A53 5G very easily. Very happy with the specs and performance of the A53. Thank you, Black Market.

I received my Samsung Gakaxy A53 mobile swftly after ordering & making payment here on Back Market. I was very happy with this mobile & the condition also. The communication & customer service is excellent in my view. The mobile itself is a great for the money i paid Back Market & i actually prefer this A53 to my old mobile A52s. This is my second mobile purchase from Back Market & just like my first purchase it is very pleasing afterall.

The condition of the phone i ordered was Good,but when I received the phone I noticed visible scratches and it seemed like the condition of the phone was Fair. I reported to Backmarket and they arranged for a new phone to be sent . I was also sent a return label to the send back the previous phone when I receive the new one. The new one arrived and it matched my expectations. The process was smooth , easy and seamless.
