This the first time I have bought a refurbished phone and was wondering whether this was something I would regret. The Apple iPhone 12 described as “good” arrived promptly the next day. It was well packaged and I was delighted that it was in pristine condition. No marks or scratches that I could see. The battery was 100%. This has exceeded my expectations and I would not hesitate to buy again.

Great refurbished iPhone 12, fast delivery and a good price. As described in good condition with no marks to the screen, however I keep getting an alert in settings saying it may have a non apple battery. This isn’t an issue, just wish the red 1 would go off the settings app. Overall a good purchase and would use this company again and recommend them.

iphone 12 was purchased for a family member and i chose the excellent condition handset. Phone was delivered within a few days and it was perfect! Screen and general handset had zero blemishes etc, it started up like a brand new iphone with the set up as you would expect with a new device. Of course saved some money buying a refurbished device but it also reduces the general environmental impact you would associate with a brand new phone. The only thing that would make this better would be if the phone came in an apple box. I bought one on line to put the phone in (a tenner online!) Would recommend buying a refurb through back market.

On the whole I’m happy with the condition of the phone. However, given it is an ‘Excellent’’ rating I’m disappointed that the Battery Health is only 85%. My sister who also purchased a refurbished IPhone 12 with an Excellent rating has 97% Battery Health.

I am really happy about my iPhone 12 refurbished, though the battery percentage was 96% . At first, I was reluctant to buy my iPhone 12 refurbished on this app but Backmarket kept their promises and I received my phone with good condition not as an excellent but the phone is good and functioning very well. however, I will be 💯 willing to buy other devices from them in future.

Benefits of buying a refurbished iPhone 12

 

At Back Market, customers can save big on a certified refurbished iPhone 12 compared to the price of new. The best part is, you don't have to sacrifice performance quality in order to save money; all refurbished devices on our marketplace have been fully reconditioned, cleaned, inspected and tested to the same standards as a new one. This is the biggest difference between buying a used or second hand iPhone 12 compared to a refurbished one.

Buying a renewed iPhone 12 is also a much better option for the environment. A refurbished iPhone 12 is often a second-hand device that has been restored and updated to meet Apple's manufacturer standards, which means you'll be helping to keep old Apple iPhones out of our landfills, reduce electronic waste, and minimize your carbon footprint.

 

Where can I get the cheapest iPhone 12 deals in the UK?

 

The best approach is to buy a refurbished iPhone 12 from Back Market, rather than opting for a used or second hand iPhone 12 elsewhere. At Back Market, the iPhone 12 prices are up to 50% cheaper than buying new, plus we include minimum 12-months warranty, free delivery and 30-days hassle-free return. At Back Market we have a quality standard as rigorous as when buying new, by monitoring, training and supporting refurbishers, that we choose carefully.

 

Is it better to get an iPhone 12 refurbished or second hand?

 

Buying a used iPhone 12 will mean the device has been sold in the same condition as the time it was traded in, which also means there were no further enhancements made to the performance of the phone. A refurbished iPhone 12 on the other hand is not just a normal second hand iPhone 12, it indicates replacement of old, low-performing or faulty components to ensure the performance is just as good as buying new. Plus, buying refurbished is generally cheaper and better for the planet which is plenty more reasons to go for a cheap refurbished iPhone 12 instead.

Staying true to our brand, we're also a huge advocate for environmental change. In fact, at the beginning of 2023, we hit a milestone for preventing 1 million tons of carbon emission (CO2e) from entering the atmosphere. You can help contribute to a better circular economy when you shop iPhone 12 deals on our platform.

 

Is the iPhone 12 sim free at Back Market?

 

At Back Market we offer both sim-locked and sim free iPhone 12 products. Like all devices listed on Back Market, these are second hand or used products but refurbished to the highest standards to ensure they work just like new. Our stock from carefully chosen refurbished sellers can comprise unlocked iPhone 12 or sim locked iPhones with these details clearly stated to avoid any customer disappointment. Browse our catalogue of unlocked iPhones here.

 

iPhone 12 warranty and return policy

 

All iPhone 12 purchases on Back Market come with free standard shipping, a 1-year warranty, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. We want to make sure you can shop with confidence and find the best iPhone for your needs at lower prices.

 

What to expect when buying a refurbished iPhone 12

 

If you're a first time refurbished buyer, you might not be sure what to expect from your purchase. First, understand that your iPhone 12 may have external cosmetic flaws depending on the condition you choose (Back Market offers devices of Fair, Good and Excellent quality). However, whatever the condition, any external blemishes will not affect the performance of your iPhone and you can expect your device to perform as if it were newly opened directly from the Apple Store.
