I am absolutely blown away by my recent purchase from Back Market. I ordered a 'Premium' quality iPad, and to my surprise, it arrived in its original Apple packaging with all the documents and the official charging cable included. The technical stats are what really shocked me: the battery health is at 100% and the charge cycle count is exactly 0. It is literally a brand-new device for a fraction of the retail cost. The value for money here is unbeatable. After this experience, I’ve decided that every gadget I purchase from now on will be from Back Market. Their quality standards are clearly top-tier. If you're on the fence about buying refurbished, don't be—this is easily the best tech purchase I’ve ever made!

Ordered an iPad Air 5 (256GB, Blue) in premium condition and I’m genuinely impressed. It arrived quickly, well packaged, and looks brand new, no noticeable marks at all. Everything works perfectly so far. Screen, sound, battery, and performance are all great! Setup was smooth and there were no issues like iCloud lock or faults. I was a bit hesitant buying refurbished after a previous bad experience elsewhere, but this has completely changed my mind. Really happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend! Also worth noting I was still eligible to add AppleCare+, which was a nice bonus and gave extra peace of mind.

I’m still giving this 5 stars because it came in excellent condition. However, I had such high hopes for it to come in the original box and accessories since that’s what a lot of the review comments indicated for the premium purchase. This didn’t happen for me.

I am extremely happy with my purchase! Although it's a used device, it arrived in brand new condition—not a single scratch on it. I checked the battery, and it had only been charged 4 times. It works perfectly and was definitely worth every penny. The delivery was also super fast! Great for my pocket and better for the planet!

I saw a couple views on trust pilot saying that the company that ships this isn’t good and shouldn’t be trusted but damn what a lie that was Honestly thought I was gonna get a faulty iPad but it’s actually good and it’s like I bought it new Would deffo recommend to anyone who’s feeling hesitant to buy. An absolute steal for the price (Also waited 2 days to make this review to see if the battery was good and everything’s in check)

It was incredibly easy to set up and it arrived earlier than expected!!! I have zero idea why you would ever purchase a full price device when the exact same quality devices can be purchased here for almost half the price!!

Subject: Refurbished iPad Air – Excellent Performance After a Month I purchased the iPad Air 10.9" (2022) 5th Gen, 64GB Wi Fi in Space Gray in early March, and after nearly a month of daily use, it has exceeded my expectations. The “Excellent ” condition truly lives up to its description — the screen is flawless with no visible marks, and the battery still holds 100% health at this point in time after multiple full charge cycles. The M1 chip delivers consistently fast and smooth performance, even when multitasking with multiple research apps open side by side. Apple Pencil is recommended . Make sure you get the right one (too many cheap fakes on ther market) for both note taking and light sketching, and streaming on the Liquid Retina display looks crisp and vibrant. Wi Fi connectivity has been rock solid throughout long sessions. Overall, it’s an excellent device for on the go productivity. I’d definitely recommend this seller for their accurate product description, secure packaging, and impressively quick delivery, which arrived well within the promised timeframe.
