    The phone arrived but there was something up with the screen. A weird green tint to the greys but not the blacks. I opted for a quick replacement and another device arrived within a few days. That process was very smooth, although my preferred colour was not available. All good with the second device.

    Honestly I just needed something for work that would run programs like slack, so I opened for "fair* condition as the price was great. What arrived was in much better condition! Battery life is great, not a mark on the screen. Really happy (and even happier I can turn it off when not working ha!)

    Fully working, looks great for a 'fair' condition device. Most flaws notable on the screen but only when looking at it from an angle, no big marks. Using it to sketch in procreate is working well- just uses up the battery fairly quick but that's to be expected on such an old model.

    I was hesitant about buying a new phone from a company I hadn’t heard of, but this was a thoroughly easy service. The bonus of it being refurbished to help the environment was the cherry on the cake. I have been recommending BackMarket to my friends.

    I chose the cheapest Samsung I could find online for my son. I am expecting it to get lost or broken, so keeping the cost down was important. I bought a phone in "fair" condition and to be honest, for the price I paid, my expectations were low. I was sent a phone in much better condition than I expected. The battery life is spot on. I am very pleased with everything from the range of choice Back Market offer, the prices and the speed of delivery. All round

    The physical condition of the phone was generally quite good and it does seem to be fully unlocked as advertised. The delivery was within the expected time. The phone seems to be fully operational and worked well with Samsung SmartSwitch from my previous S10+. The battery condition is a bit disappointing. Even with very light usage, it only holds charge for about 16 hours. Though, it is a used phone so understandable I suppose. I would think the battery would have been replaced for the price I paid but, if they did so, there would be no point in offering the battery replacement option as part of the various extended warranties offered. Overall, OK.
