Product - a refurbished Samsung Galaxy S23 FE - arrived way ahead of schedule (the very next day, ahead of a Bank Holiday - which was hugely appreciated). Condition is excellent, good as new. Set-up was simple as expected, and I was up and running fast. Would highly recommend Back Market to replace livelihood-dependent hardware; and to help slow the 'fast tech' obsession, as opposed to refurbishing and recycling.

A really excellent service from start to finish. The process was so simple and easy, it gives you a choice of conditions of the phone which do make the value change but not by alot. I ordered an excellent condition Samsung galaxy S23fe at an incredible price. I received the phone from a secure shipment DHL which is always a professional service, a time slot was made by DHL and was delivered in that time frame. Once I ha received the Phone I checked it and it was like literally I had ordered a new phone even came with original charging cable and SIM pin. A really excellent service from Back Market.

This is actually the best phone ive ever gotten in my life. I was thinking about saving a bit more money to get the base S23 but instead i put my trust and bought the S23 FE, and i ordered fair but THIS PHONE CAME IN PERFECT CONDITION (even down to the battery and functionality). I would highly reccomend buying from this seller and website again 😄

Phone works amazingly, you wouldn't know it wasn't brand new - my only issue is that whoever refurbished it forgot to clean the charging port...i had to pull a massive hairball out of there just to get the charger to go in. Clearly didn't get checked as thoroughly as it should have been. Regardless, the phone works fine now and I couldn't be happier.

My purchase was well researched, I knew the phone I wanted and this represented my fourth purchase from Backmarket, so I was aware of the quality of their reconditioned equipment and their speedy delivery. I was not disappointed. The phone really was as good as new, and delivered extremely swiftly. Backmarket remain my go to seller of tech goods. A++

The Galaxy S23 FE is Samsung’s take on bringing flagship features to a wider audience. Released in October 2023, this model sits between the premium S23 series and mid-range Galaxy A models, making it a convenient entry into the "almost-flagship" club as we approach 2025. With a robust camera setup and AMOLED display in an aluminium and glass frame, the Galaxy S23 FE holds up against many newer devices, while keeping things simple where it matters.

Key features:

Release Date: October 2023
Display: 6.4-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X, FHD+ (2340 x 1080 px), 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: Exynos 2200 (global) or Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (region-dependent)
Camera: Triple rear setup: 50MP main, 8MP telephoto, 12MP ultra-wide; 10MP front camera
Operating System: Ships with Android 13 (One UI 5.1)
Build Quality: Aluminium frame, Gorilla Glass 5 front and back, IP68 rated for dust and water resistance
Connectivity: 5G support, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3

Who is this for?

The Galaxy S23 FE is ideal for those craving a nearly up-to-date Android phone with refined features but not too fussed about always having the "latest and greatest" on launch day. It suits students, young professionals, and anyone who values a balanced device for photography, streaming, and everyday multitasking. Compared to the standard S23, you get almost all of the must-haves, just toned down on the chipset and a few premium touches—making it a practical choice if you’re not chasing Samsung’s absolute top end.

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
Bright and smooth 120Hz AMOLED display	Processor lags slightly behind latest flagships
Versatile triple-camera system	Lacks dedicated top-tier flagship features (like S23 Ultra’s camera range)
IP68 dust and water resistance	No microSD slot for additional storage
Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 for fast connections	Slightly bulkier than the standard S23

Why refurbished?

Choosing a pre-owned Galaxy S23 FE helps reduce electronic waste and extends the lifespan of quality tech. Every device on Back Market is checked thoroughly to meet our strict standards for reliability and performance. Learn more about our quality standards.
