Verified purchaseI checked out the site and after some thought I decided to give it a go. The whole experience was great and very straight forward. I was kept informed at all times and was surprised at the quick delivery. The price is crazy good and there's hardly a mark on the phone. It works perfectly. My only gripe would be how long it took to upload all of the updates, but this could be in part due to my Internet speed. That aside I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Verified purchaseItem exceeded expectations and I was very pleased with how quickly it was dispatched, especially as it was during the Christmas rush. Have since recommended Back Market to a friend who has purchased her own phone from you.

Verified purchaseMy son suggested I buy a phone from Back Market and stick to my SIM only contract, rather than pay the exorbitant monthly fees. My old Sony suddenly wouldn't make/receive calls once my network provider switched to 4/5G. I was a little dubious of what sort of phone I would get, but was hugely and pleasantly surprised. Got a half price modern Sony phone of my choosing, and I really couldn't tell it was used. I didn't even go for the excellent quality merely the Staff Pick! Choice of phones were great. Came through the post quickly and easily. Back making calls. Would definitely recommend. Great service. Thanks.

Verified purchaseI got a smartphone and it was almost everything I wanted. Had I known the product was originally from the Asian market I wouldn't have bought it. The regional apps it tries to install are not secure. I will be aware of this in future. Aside from that the phone was described in excellent condition and it certainly was.

Verified purchaseHappy with the product, the colour description was slightly off but for the quality of the product received I can forgive this small oversight.

Verified purchaseFirst time ordering from Black Market and was a bit nervous to be honest, but the good reviews and great prices convinced me to give a it a go - and I'm glad I did. Ordered my phone (Sony Xperia 1 IV) in 'good' condition, but honestly there wasn't a scratch or mark on it. Looked perfect externally and, most importantly, so did the screen. Have been using the device for a couple of weeks now and performs brilliantly. The battery isn't at peak performance but still lasts more than enough for day's use, and if you're worried about battery life just get yourself a portable charger for cheap then you're all good. Much better than forking out £1000s just so you're battery is brilliant for a few months. Sellers were great too, phone delivered on time and all warranty information and a charging wire included. Very happy. Doubt I'll ever get a phone 'new' again, saved me so much money using Back market and enabled me to buy a premium phone which I wouldn't be able to afford otherwise. Great marketplace.

Verified purchaseThe phone fingerprint sensor did not function correctly, the phone was returned and the money promptly refunded. Very satisfied the way the problem was dealt with.

Here’s what you help prevent on average by choosing a reborn smartphone over a brand new one.
That’s like driving an old banger from London to Edinburgh and back.
That’s around the weight of a baseball.
That's like 20 dogs digging in your yard for a week.
