4.5/5In all honesty, it was an amazing purchase! The delivery was very quick and smooth. The phone did have a lot of scratches at the back but I think it was quite expected since it's an old model now and I got the 'fair' condition one. The screen however was fine, with no scratches or dents. The only downside is that the battery runs out quite quickly but again it's a given considering the model and its age. Would 100% buy again tho!

1/5i am trying to get this fixed under warranty as the phone is not working. how do you expect me to back up my data and do the 'mandatory' things when the screen does not work? i cannot back up and erase my data to send you the phone. am i able to send the phone how it was when it broke as i am unable to do anything to it apart from take photos.
