Very good at first I was iffy but gave back market a try. I am glad I did, for an affordable price I got my daughter’s phone. I had some issues installing it but all in all it was the best thing I could have done. You also get help if any issues. I haven’t had any, the phone looks brand new. Thank you!

Awesome device! Had minimal signs of wear (just a few scratches on the back glass), 83% battery health remaining (perfectly fine for a fair condition device) and it was wrapped very well and shipped quickly.

so far, I am overall impressed with my recent unlocked iPhone 12. my previous iPhone had a failing battery and I intend to trade it in to get a tiny amount of cash. and my overall intention of getting an unlocked iPhone 12 is for mobile videography and not to show off. the battery lifespan is at 88% 2% below 90. the battery life seems to hold up and I believe I have up to 3 years to get Apple's IOS updates.

Purchased an iPhone 12. It was delivered within a couple days, and is in excellent condition. Even the battery health is 100%!! Wow! So glad I ordered from Give Back Wireless instead of Amazon or Apple refurbished. Phone works perfectly and was set at a very fair price. 10/10 would order again. Thank you ‘Give Back Wireless’ and ‘Back Market’!

Should I buy an unlocked iPhone 12?

When you buy an unlocked iPhone 12, you'll have multiple options for choosing a carrier network. It is the safest option if you're not already locked into a long term contract with a network like Verizon, T-Mobile or AT&T. With an unlocked phone, you also have the option to easily switch between different network providers if you need to.

However, if you're happy with your current network provider and you don't plan on switching any time soon, you might save a little more money by shopping for an iPhone locked to a carrier. Locked phones tend to cost less than unlocked phones on average.

Whichever you option you pick, Back Market has plenty of options to help you find an iPhone 12 at a low price.

Locked vs Unlocked iPhone

Which networks can I use an unlocked iPhone 12?

Your unlocked iPhone 12 from Back Market will work with all 3 major carriers in the US: AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile. Since it is compatible with all 3 networks, you can also activate it under each of their Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) including Mint, Straight Talk, US Mobile, Cricket, Boost Mobile, Google Fi, Metro and others.

Unlocked iPhone 12 warranty and return policy

All locked or unlocked 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 12 for your needs at the lowest price. 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.

What to expect when buying a refurbished unlocked iPhone 12

When you buy an unlocked iPhone 12 from Back Market, you'll be receiving a phone that has not been activated with any network yet. It's still a fully functional device, but you will not be able to make any calls, text or access the internet without Wi-Fi until it has been properly activated with a carrier of your choice.

Activating your iPhone 12 might look slightly depending on the network, but you can learn more about the activation process on our help page.

iPhone Trade In

If you already have an iPhone 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 iPhone.
