    Arrived super fast! I'm so glad I found this website. I didn't want to spend a fortune on a new phone for my husband. He needed a good phone, good camera and lots of space for work. You wouldn't think it's refurbished. It's literally brand new! This phone is perfect for him!! It's been 3 weeks now and he loves it. My next phone will definitely be from this site 😃

    Great experience ordering from Back Market - the first time using this site but I will definitely be back! I've been hanging onto a 2015 handset, not wanting to contribute yet more electronic waste to the world so a refurbished handset was just what I was after. The website is easy to navigate, filter and find what you want. The device arrived quickly, described as 'good' condition but there's not a mark on it. Highly recommended!

    Really good so far, the back is nice, it has a nice smell, came with a free cause and works pretty well. A weird bounce back when pressing certain things on games but it may be normal since i switched from Apple to Samsung.
