    Excellent product I was surprised to see not a mark or blemish on the phone. I would certainly recommend Backmark for a quality product. Kind Regards Dave

    My phone arrived very quickly after ordering. Problem is charging cable does not fit the phone. I do not have any other to use.

    this phone is as good as new and i really like it. i'll never buy a new phone again, a reconditioned one is just as good and the principle fits in with my convictions: any object, rather than being thrown away, can have a second life. and the planet will be all the better for it.

    The phone isn't bad, but the battery doesn't last and discharges very quickly even when you're not using it. As the phone is for my son, it's still decent, albeit expensive. For an adult who uses it on a daily basis, it's a bit of a mouthful. I chose it because Samsung phones usually have a good camera, but that's not really the case here, and the quality of the photos isn't great.

Reborn vs. brand new

Here’s what you help prevent on average by choosing a reborn smartphone over a brand new one.

77.3 kg of carbon

That’s like driving an old banger from London to Edinburgh and back.

6.3 oz of e-waste

That’s around the weight of a baseball.

537.1 lbs of raw materials

That's like 20 dogs digging in your yard for a week.

77,000 litres of water

That's like running a faucet for 3 days
