What condition grades mean when buying a refurbished iPhone?

Back Market uses four main condition grades to help you choose the right refurbished iPhone for your needs and budget. "Premium" grade iPhones have a flawless screen with no signs of use, either gently used or open-box returns,have genuine manufacturer parts (including battery), and a minimum of 90% battery capacity. "Excellent" grade iPhones have no visible scratches when held 12 inches away and work like new – perfect if you want something that looks pristine. "Good" grade devices may have light scratches visible up close but nothing that affects the screen or performance – this is our most popular option for great value. "Fair" grade iPhones have noticeable cosmetic wear but guarantee all essential functions work perfectly – ideal for budget-conscious buyers. All grades include the same 1-year warranty and must meet our battery health standard of at least 80% original capacity. Every iPhone is professionally tested across 30+ checkpoints regardless of condition grade. Think of it like buying a used car – the engine (performance) is excellent across all grades, but the paint job (appearance) varies.

How do I know if a refurbished iPhone will work with my US carrier?

Most refurbished iPhones on Back Market work with all major US carriers, but here's how to be sure before you buy. First, check if the iPhone is "unlocked" in the product listing – unlocked phones work with any carrier. Second, verify the model supports your carrier's network bands. iPhones from iPhone 6s onward typically work with Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and smaller carriers, but older models might be tied to specific networks. Third, if you see "GSM" or "CDMA" in the description, GSM works with AT&T and T-Mobile, while CDMA works with Verizon. The easiest way? Use your carrier's "bring your own device" checker tool with the iPhone's IMEI number (listed in each product description). If you're still unsure, message our customer support before purchasing – we'll help verify compatibility so you don't end up with a phone that won't connect to your network.

Do refurbished iPhones come with new batteries?

It depends on the specific device, but many of our refurbished iPhones can be bought with a new battery also. At Back Market, every iPhone must meet our minimum battery health requirement of 80% original capacity before we sell it. Many devices receive brand new batteries during the refurbishment process, especially older models where battery replacement makes economic sense. For iPhones that keep their original batteries, we test them rigorously to ensure they meet our standards and will give you reliable daily performance. You can check each product listing for specific battery health information before buying. Our 1-year warranty covers battery performance issues, so if your iPhone's battery doesn't hold charge properly, we'll fix it at no cost. This battery guarantee is one way we're different from other refurbished sellers who might not be as upfront about battery condition and coverage.

Can I get the latest iOS on a refurbished iPhone?

Absolutely – refurbished iPhones can run the latest iOS just like new devices, often with newer software than when they originally shipped. Apple supports iPhones with iOS updates for 5-6 years after release, so even older refurbished models typically support current iOS versions. When you receive your refurbished iPhone, you can immediately update to the latest iOS through Settings > General > Software Update. Many customers are surprised to find their "older" refurbished iPhone runs newer iOS than their previous phone had. The only limitation is hardware-specific features – for example, an iPhone 8 can't use Face ID (that requires iPhone X or newer), but it'll still run the latest iOS with most features. Before buying, check Apple's iOS compatibility list if you need specific features. This is one of the great things about Apple's ecosystem – software support doesn't discriminate between new and refurbished devices.

What's included when I buy a refurbished iPhone during Black Friday?

Every refurbished iPhone purchase includes the device, a charging cable that's compatible with your model, and all applicable documentation in most cases. What you might not get are original Apple earbuds or the original box, though some sellers do include these. The specific accessories vary by seller and are clearly listed in each product description before you buy. More importantly, every iPhone includes our 1-year warranty and 30-day return policy – better protection than most Black Friday deals on new phones that might only offer standard manufacturer warranty. During Black Friday (November 17-30), you'll also get additional savings on top of our already discounted prices. All iPhones are unlocked and ready to use with your carrier, professionally cleaned, and tested to ensure everything works properly. If you need specific accessories like AirPods or cases, we offer those separately with the same quality guarantee and customer protection.

Black Friday’s not over — but it will be...

recently purchased an iPhone 14 from Back Market, and I’m honestly really impressed with the experience. I was a bit skeptical about buying a refurbished phone at first, but it exceeded my expectations. The phone arrived quickly and was in excellent condition—honestly, it looked almost brand new. There were little to no visible scratches, and everything worked perfectly right out of the box. The battery life has been solid, and performance is just as smooth and fast as you’d expect from an iPhone 14. What I appreciated most was the value for money. I was able to get a high-quality device at a much lower price than buying brand new, which made it totally worth it. The setup process was easy, and I haven’t had any issues with connectivity, camera quality, or apps. Overall, I’d definitely recommend buying from Back Market if you’re looking to save money without sacrificing quality. This was a great purchase, and I’d do it again.

I was initially looking for refurbished phones on Apple’s certified refurbished site and they have this same model (1TB storage) listed for around $1300 after taxes.

However, I decided to go with Back Market’s 'Premium' tier, and honestly I am blown away! The phone arrived in literal 'like-new' condition, zero battery cycles and 100% battery health!!

So happy to have a 13 mini back. Same GB’s and even same color as I’d had before. It was a mistake to try the iPhone 17; too big and too heavy. Researched reliable refurbished iPhones, and Back Market came up as one. As recommended, I also checked out the individual vendor’s reviews; good as well, with years of experience. Ordering was easy; arrived on date stated, and the battery at 92%, with (I think) an Apple battery, because I didn’t get the warning about a non-Apple part (they stated may happen with non-Apple battery) upon turning it on. Battery lasts about 4.5 hours, way less than the 17 which lasts all day. However, I recalled that pretty much is standard with the 13 mini. It simply does not have the battery power of the bigger phones. I expected it to get a bit warm while transferring my data from the 17, yet it never got hot. My phone plan immediately recognized the 13 mini without me having to do anything on their site. I’ve had it about 2 weeks now; and so far, so good.

This is the second phone I’ve ordered from backmarket, I recommend them to EVERYONE! Not only are they reducing waste, but you can’t beat their prices either!! I ordered the iPhone 12 mini in “fair” condition, and it showed up looking brand new with only a few teeny scratches on the body! For $150 you seriously can’t beat it. I’ve never had issues with the longevity of their refurbished phones, my previous one lasted almost 5 years. The battery capacity on this one is 80% and it has no problem getting through the whole day off a full charge. Everything works like it’s supposed to with zero issues! I love this company, I love this phone, and I could NOT be happier :)

Back Market uses four main condition grades to help you choose the right refurbished iPhone for your needs and budget. "Premium" grade iPhones have a flawless screen with no signs of use, either gently used or open-box returns,have genuine manufacturer parts (including battery), and a minimum of 90% battery capacity. "Excellent" grade iPhones have no visible scratches when held 12 inches away and work like new – perfect if you want something that looks pristine. "Good" grade devices may have light scratches visible up close but nothing that affects the screen or performance – this is our most popular option for great value. "Fair" grade iPhones have noticeable cosmetic wear but guarantee all essential functions work perfectly – ideal for budget-conscious buyers. All grades include the same 1-year warranty and must meet our battery health standard of at least 80% original capacity. Every iPhone is professionally tested across 30+ checkpoints regardless of condition grade. Think of it like buying a used car – the engine (performance) is excellent across all grades, but the paint job (appearance) varies.
Most refurbished iPhones on Back Market work with all major US carriers, but here's how to be sure before you buy. First, check if the iPhone is "unlocked" in the product listing – unlocked phones work with any carrier. Second, verify the model supports your carrier's network bands. iPhones from iPhone 6s onward typically work with Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and smaller carriers, but older models might be tied to specific networks. Third, if you see "GSM" or "CDMA" in the description, GSM works with AT&T and T-Mobile, while CDMA works with Verizon. The easiest way? Use your carrier's "bring your own device" checker tool with the iPhone's IMEI number (listed in each product description). If you're still unsure, message our customer support before purchasing – we'll help verify compatibility so you don't end up with a phone that won't connect to your network.

Our 1-year warranty covers battery performance issues, so if your iPhone's battery doesn't hold charge properly, we'll fix it at no cost. This battery guarantee is one way we're different from other refurbished sellers who might not be as upfront about battery condition and coverage.
Absolutely – refurbished iPhones can run the latest iOS just like new devices, often with newer software than when they originally shipped. Apple supports iPhones with iOS updates for 5-6 years after release, so even older refurbished models typically support current iOS versions. When you receive your refurbished iPhone, you can immediately update to the latest iOS through Settings > General > Software Update. Many customers are surprised to find their "older" refurbished iPhone runs newer iOS than their previous phone had. The only limitation is hardware-specific features – for example, an iPhone 8 can't use Face ID (that requires iPhone X or newer), but it'll still run the latest iOS with most features. Before buying, check Apple's iOS compatibility list if you need specific features. This is one of the great things about Apple's ecosystem – software support doesn't discriminate between new and refurbished devices.
Every refurbished iPhone purchase includes the device, a charging cable that's compatible with your model, and all applicable documentation in most cases. What you might not get are original Apple earbuds or the original box, though some sellers do include these. The specific accessories vary by seller and are clearly listed in each product description before you buy. More importantly, every iPhone includes our 1-year warranty and 30-day return policy – better protection than most Black Friday deals on new phones that might only offer standard manufacturer warranty. During Black Friday (November 17-30), you'll also get additional savings on top of our already discounted prices. All iPhones are unlocked and ready to use with your carrier, professionally cleaned, and tested to ensure everything works properly. If you need specific accessories like AirPods or cases, we offer those separately with the same quality guarantee and customer protection.
