My refurbished device was sent promptly in good packaging. I also received the postal kit to send my old phone back. Really easy and clear instructions about sending my old device back with a nice long deadline for the trade in to be sent so had plenty of time to switch over phones. My Samsung Galaxy A55 is in perfect condition. I'm really chuffed with my new refurbished phone. It's exactly as advertised and has a really fantastic phone. Really pleased with the new (refurbished) phone. Very affordable and with loads of options about what I wanted in terms of seriously

am very pleased with my Samsung Galaxy A55 mobile phone from Back Market. It looks like an absolutely brand new phone - you couldn't tell it had been refurbished. I've never used a Samsung Galaxy mobile before; it's a little bit heavier than I expected - sturdy construction - no problem at all, but the 12GB RAM is an excellent bonus. It's been going through several updates recently and everything seems to be going well; I have no complaints. Would use Back Market again.

Very pleased with my new Galaxy A55, it looks like a brand new phone, so no complaints. Usually stay away from refurbished but this time I couldn't have made a better decision. Will be coming back to Back Market when my wife needs her phone changing. And using the Samsung software to copy all my details and apps from my old phone was really easy. Well done to both.

Received my Galaxy A55 within a couple of days of ordering. Packaging was secure and protected very well. Clear instructions for sending my old phone back too with packaging. I chose a used phone in good condition, I received an immaculate phone that looked virtually brand new! Very impressed, will definitely use Back Market again and certainly will be recommending them to friends and family.

Phone supplied was a UAE import. This means features such as Samsung pay are not compatible or available in the UK without flashing the firmware. This should have been communicated but it wasn't. I paid for a refurbished "excellent" phone and have ended up with an inferior product.

Condition of phone was fair... but that's still good enough for my son IMO. Screen and cameras perfect - markings on the body, but once it's in a case you don't see them. Really great phone for the price. Again very happy to use BackMarket.

I’m really impressed with this new mobile phone. The design looks sleek and modern, the performance is fast and smooth, and the battery lasts all day without issues. The camera quality is excellent, especially in low light, and the display is bright and clear. Overall, it offers great value and a very enjoyable user experience.

The Samsung Galaxy A55 is a mid-range contender that launched in March 2024, standing just one step behind the brand’s flagship line-up. Three generations from Samsung's well-known A-series, it offers a balanced mix of style, performance, and features suited for today’s busy world—without the pressure of having the absolute latest in your pocket.

Key features:

Release Date: March 2024
Display: 6.6-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED, 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: Exynos 1480
Camera: Triple rear cameras (50MP main, 12MP ultra-wide, 5MP macro)
Operating System: Ships with Android 14 and Samsung’s One UI 6.1
Build: Metal frame with Gorilla Glass Victus+ front and back
Connectivity: 5G support and Wi-Fi 6

Who is this for?

The Galaxy A55 is made for those who want a modern Android phone without wading into flagship territory. It’s a handy choice for students, young professionals, and anyone who values a sharp AMOLED screen, smooth scrolling, and a decent camera setup for everyday snaps. If you don’t need the extras from Samsung’s pricier models like the S24, the A55 covers the essentials quite comfortably. Not a bad shout if you want current tech but don’t feel the need to always “keep up.”

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
Vibrant 120Hz AMOLED display for smooth everyday use and video playback.	No telephoto camera, limiting advanced photography options.
Sturdy metal and glass design—finally, no more plastic frame.	Chunkier build compared to older A-series models, making it less pocket-friendly.
Up-to-date software with long-term update support from Samsung.	Lacks flagship-level performance, so demanding gamers may want to look higher up the Galaxy ladder.
Wi-Fi 6 and 5G for strong connectivity wherever available.	No wireless charging—so you’ll still be plugging in the old-fashioned way.

Why refurbished?

Choosing a refurbished Samsung Galaxy A55 is a practical step for the planet and your peace of mind. Pre-owned devices from Back Market pass rigorous tests for quality, reliability, and cleanliness—so nothing weird lurks beneath the surface (apart from maybe a minor past life).
