Phone looks like new. Arrived with power to get it started and charging cable. Very pleased with purchase and would recommend Back Market

Amazing buy for my daughter's first proper phone. Has to look up a workaround online to get it set up (as some older androids can't keep up with the software updates) and do a factory reset but after that worked perfectly! The trick is to set it up offline and without SIM before connecting.
