    Overall I am pleased with my refurbished Sony. Something I would have liked the info to tell about though, is the fact it seems to be a Japanese software install rather than the UK one that I am used too. it also came with difficult to uninstall bloatware type apps which were also in Japanese. That side of it has been disappointing but now that I have had time to fiddle, it seems to work well.

    The price of mobile phones are eye watering expensive -money that I am not prepared to pay-ever!. Keep up the good work Back Market. The phone I received was in brilliant condition and the service from start to finish was flawless. You now have a loyal customer and I will be spreading the word on good you are!

    chose the top level and it came in pristine condition. phone itself is brilliant although the camera is to complicated for me although I don't take a lot of photos it is good but takes me to long to set it up. for music which is why I bought it, the sound is great and memoryb is expandable if you know who to download your landed. the headphone jack is great option to have. battery is brilliant for a second hand set. I easily get a day and a half at normal use such as listening tomusic and social media scrolling etc. I came from the original Xperia 1 the larger version which was working well still just the battery was starting to drain fast. the 5iii is a nicer size in the pocket, it's faster and probably a better camera which is wasted on me. in 2024 this phone is still top notch would highly recommend it way better than an iPhone the built quality as usual from Sony is solid you know you have a quality product in your hand

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
