The iPhone XS that I got was in excellent condition and truly it was! It looked basically like new!👍🏽 only complaint is the battery health is already down to 79% which is pretty bad, but I guess you can more or less expect that from refurbished tech…

Coming from Android to an iPhone XS in excellent condition with 256gb and couldn't be happier with it! I was looking to experience 3D touch before becoming obsolete, and as a former Mac of All Trades customer, I have bought refurbished before and wasn't expecting anything too great, but this came in and actually looked new. Save for a couple very light scratches at top right corner of the screen (not even visible unless without screen protector and under direct light) the phone was in perfect condition. Everything works as it should. Battery maximum capacity was at 88% so it was definitely pre-owned, but otherwise this is practically a brand-new device. Currently savoring all I can out of 3D touch until the day I upgrade to something newer. Read and look at seller reviews on this site like you would on eBay. I got my iPhone XS from TOR GROUP LLC on Back Market with the excellent condition option and was not disappointed. I also ordered it with the generic clear phone case from Back Market and it's fairly decent. With use of the guide stickers, I managed to get the glass lined up perfectly and the clear case currently holds a Polaroid and a random sticker which is fun. Tldr: good e ...

The front screen is pretty scratched, I have purchased refurbished phones in the past and all in “good” condition, this one is way worse than any of the others. Shipping was good and the company communication was on point, just falls a little short of my expectations on the product side. Hope this h

I ordered the rose IPhone XS in good condition for my mom to change from android to apple. I quickly received it safely in the mail and am extremely pleased with the phone. It’s in amazing condition and she loves using it. I have always received quality products and top shelf customer service and interaction with Backmarket sales team. I will continue to purchase items from you and gladly spread the word of quality products that are easy on the wallet. Bobby Pike

I ordered the iPhone Xs 256gb space gray in good condition for a great price ($215). It arrived looking pristine aesthetically, with no visible dents or scratches. Works as it should. The only mystery is the battery, which shows 100% health on both iMazing and Coconut Battery, but reports 1215 charge cycles. That's impossible. I'm guessing that the original Apple battery was replaced with a third-party battery, and that the cycle count was somehow either not reset or corrupted to a very high number. Anyway, I get about six hours of screen time on a charge, and I couldn't ask for more from a four year-old phone. I'm pleased.

Unlocked iPhone XS for Sale

The Unlocked iPhone XS on Back Market is a great buy because it’s sleek, ergonomical, and unlocked. Have you ever held this phone in your hand? Well let me tell you, it feels amazing. The size is just right (in my opinion), and the gesture controls make it super easy to use one-handed. If you’re considering switching carriers or travelling, make sure to pick up an unlocked version.

The Best Unlocked iPhone XS Deals

The design of the unlocked iPhone XS is arguable one of the sleekest Apple has ever pulled off. Even though the iPhone 11 Pro (The successor to the XS) has great camera performance, many don’t like the rough matte texture and aesthetic choices of the back glass. It’s also thicker than the XS. Long story short, many think the unlocked iPhone XS looks better. And since these are unlocked, they’ll work on T Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, and just about any other carrier out there.

Looking to buy a GSM Unlocked iPhone XS?

If you buy a GSM unlocked iPhone XS, it means that it will only work for GSM carriers like T-Mobile and AT&T. Also, keep in mind that any smaller companies that operate on the same antennas as these big carriers (like Cricket or Metro PCS) will also work on a GSM iPhone XS :D And since most international carriers use GSM technology as well, this can also be the perfect phone for traveling.
