Very impressed with this order, it was despatched quickly and arrived very fast. Even though this item was rated as 'good' it was in near perfect condition with very little signs of use. Everything works as it should and I have no complaints at all. Would highly recommend to others.

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.

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

Arrived in excellent condition. Data transfer from my old Xperia worked a treat with the cable you sent. The phone is the third Xperia I've owned in 10 years.... and the best. Great job!
