    I have used Back Market multiple times for different refurbished electronics & they have always done a great job! All our phones & laptops have been in great condition & the website is easy to navigate. I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G 128GB & it is great & shipping was pretty quick.

    I love my new Samsung S21 FE phone, even though it's hard to find a case and screen protector for it in stores it works perfectly and it has not a scratch or dent on it. I will definitely buy from back market again in the future & my fiancé is going to buy from them too. Thanks a bunch!

    I had an awesome experience buying my phone everything went smoothly. actually , I had purchased two phones one for me and my wife. we both got the Samsung Galaxy 21FE one black one purple. i believe we got good condition and they were excellent. i would highly recommend buying a phone or anything from backmarket. the only reason i'm giving only four stars. i wish since I bought 2 phones and was planning on getting visible plans. I would have had a promo for both plans instead of just one that would have been a lot cooler

    Very happy with the phone but there was no WiFi Calling prompt. Have family plan with Verizon and all other phones on the plan the prompt is there. Contacted Verizon numerous times and did not get resolved, they seemed perplexed. Contacted Samsung tech, again not resolved. Is there anything that you know could resolve this issue, would appreciate it.

    Phone was in excellent condition, except that the charging port is loose, cord easily falls out. Since I do wireless charging, it is not a problem..I didnt want to chance a return since the screen and body were perfect

    Recently I decided to upgrade my phone. The selection at Back Market is outstanding, so much so, instead of buying one phone I bought a second one too. Both were easy to transfer my old information to and work quite well. I would buy from Back Market again.

    Arrived in the time stated at purchase. It came in a plain white box with a USB-c charger and a tool to open the SIM tray. The phone is in perfect condition. Couldn't be happier with that. I was a little bit worried at unpacking and powering up as I kept having issues with the samsung UI a couple Google searches later I am up running with a cool and super functional device. Remember it will be factory reset so you have to get your app store shopping on. All said and done, great experience and Black Market has a beliver in me!

    I almost didn't purchase a plan from visible (and a phone from you) because they don't ship the SIM card to PO Boxes and the website doesn't recognize my physical address. What's the deal with that? Please ship to PO Boxes. I bought the exact same phone I already had because it was the most affordable android phone with the best reviews. It's excellent, highly recommend.

Benefits of buying a refurbished Samsung Galaxy S21 FE


At Back Market, customers save big compared to the price of new on certified refurbished Samsung Galaxy S21 FE models. 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 pre-owned Samsung Galaxy S21 FE compared to a refurbished one.

Buying a renewed Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is also a much better option for the environment. A refurbished Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is often a second-hand device that has been restored and updated to meet the Samsung's manufacturer standards, which means you'll be helping to keep old Samsung Galaxy's out of our landfills, reduce electronic waste, and minimize your carbon footprint.


Where to buy a refurbished Samsung Galaxy S21 FE?


You'll find the biggest selection, highest product quality and lowest prices on restored Samsung Galaxy S21 FE models at Back Market. That's because we specialize specifically in refurbished tech and take the time to carefully vet every seller on our marketplace to ensure customers are getting reliable devices that perform like-new. We have hundreds of refurbed Samsung Galaxy S21 FE phones in price ranges to fit almost anyone's smartphone budget.

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 Samsung Galaxy S21 FE deals on our platform. 

 

Samsung Galaxy S21 FE warranty and return policy


All Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 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 Samsung Galaxy for your needs at lower prices.

 

What to expect when buying a refurbished Samsung Galaxy S21 FE


If you're a first time refurbished buyer, you might not be sure what to expect from your purchase. First, understand that your Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 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 Samsung Galaxy and you can expect your device to perform as if it were newly opened directly from the Samsung Store.

You should also be confident that your Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is backed by a 1-year warranty, meaning in the rare case that any defects arise (outside of accidental damage) within 12 months of your delivery date, then you're entitled to your choice of a repair, replacement or reimbursement. 


Smartphone Trade In


If you already have a smartphone that you're looking to replace, consider trading it into Back Market to give you a little extra budget for your next smartphone upgrade. We make the process simple for you and we'll give you a free online quote when you answer a few easy questions about your current smartphone.
