This is my second BackMarket purchase. In both cases, I was satisfied with the phone purchased. phones arrived promptly and were what was advertised. My issue is with the inadequate descriptions of what refurbishment-rehab is done to the phone and whether the battery is replaced. I scoured the website and watched the pretty video and didn't get an answer. That question is still a mystery when you get the phone and check the battery condition. The iPhone 8 I just bought says the battery needs service. However after a few chargings, it seems to perform adequately. But it is an unanswered question. Will this battery drop dead in a few months? I'd suggest to BackMarket that the website clearly says whether the batteries have been replaced or are the original battery.

The iPhone 8 purchased from backmarket was exactly as described and the quality could not be greater. I needed this phone for my seven year old daughter so that we could use modern applications to monitor her recent diabetes diagnosis and backmarket provided a quality phone for an extremely reasonable price compared to any other place my wife and I looked. If I require another refurbished phone I will definitely be looking to this company again to fulfill my needs. Thank you.

I am a real person who recently lost my iPhone 8 9while out horseback riding0. I got sticker shock with new iPhones so I started shopping around. I found allot of sketchy resellers and then I found Back Market. I was still skeptical about ordering a replacement / reconditioned phone from this company. However, based on the possible price savings, I decided to risk it ("risk and reward"). I figured, worst case I would add 25% to the cost of a new phone, best case I would save 75% over the cost of a new phone. Well worth the risk, in my opinion. I placed the order and was very pleased. I got my new phone quickly and everything worked as promised. Within a short time, however, the battery stopped charging in the phone. I contacted BackMarket and they promptly sent me a return label to send the phone in for repair. Unfortunalty the phone could not be repaired so Back Market gave me a full refund,, without having to be asked. I was hoping to get the phone back but, my money back in the next best thing. I would highly recommend BackMarket to anyone, based on my experience.

My refurbished IPhone 8 arrived in great condition. Customer Service was also top-notch. This is the second phone I've ordered from Back Market --the first for my son, and he LOVES his. I'm still trying to figure out all the bells and whistles, but it will happen. If not, I know I can call Customer Service!

I like small phones. I had an iPhone7 for the past 4 years until I dropped it and the screen cracked. Looking for a replacement, I came across Back Market. I found a refurbished iPhone8 with fantastic specs (excellent condition, large memory, for 200 bucks including tax and insurance) and I didn't think twice! I really love my "new" phone! I am very happy with my purchase and I will be coming back to Back Market for more! Thank you Back Market!

Really satisfied with my refurbished I-phone 8 and especially impressed with the prompt and friendly service at Back Market. I got what I ordered in record time and at a really great price--and it was shipped for free! I recommend Back Market whole heartedly!

This Backmarket purchase was my third attempt to buy a refurbished phone. The two earlier sellers advertized their phones, which cost about $200, as "like new", but when they arrived their batteries health levels were 76% and needed to be replaced at a cost of $70. I returned both. This phone cost only $152 and it's batttery level is 94%! Thanks!!

Reborn vs. brand new

Here’s what you help prevent on average by choosing a reborn smartphone over a brand new one.

171.1 lbs of CO2e

That's like driving an SUV from NYC to Chicago.

6.3 oz of e-waste

That’s around the weight of a baseball.

537.1 lbs of raw materials

That's like 20 dogs digging in your yard for a week.

20,341.2 gallons of water

That's like running a faucet for 3 days

Everything you ever wanted to know about the iPhone 8

Is the iPhone 8 Unlocked still worth it?

While the iPhone 8 is not the latest iPhone on the marketplace, it still gives superb performance and should perform just as well as the most recent iPhones. You don't need to get the most recent iPhone for mobile gaming or music/video streaming, you can go for this used cell phone and get the same functionality that you would get out of a much newer iPhone.

Unlocked iPhone 8 specifications & dimensions

Released on 9/22/17, this Unlocked iPhone 8 comes in a Gold glass/aluminum chassis. It's 5.45 inches tall, and 2.65" wide with a depth of 0.29 inches and a weight of 5.22oz. The Gold iPhone 8 256 GB is a phone that feels and looks modern, has a very good camera and battery life, and will certainly feel great during normal use.

How many GB is sufficient for an Unlocked iPhone 8?

The 256 GB of storage space on your Gold iPhone 8 will be used to store images, videos, and tunes right onto your device. And keep in mind, if you're the type of person that normally downloads a ton of digital media, you're probably going to want to buy a mobile phone with a minimum of 128GB of storage space.

How much RAM does the Unlocked iPhone 8 have?

As a result of the Apple A11 chip within, this smartphone is able to stay snappy no matter what application you choose to use. Its 2 GB of RAM will enable you to easily run a handful applications simultaneously without bogging down the phone.

What screen does the Unlocked iPhone 8 have?

The Unlocked iPhone 8 has an LCD screen that measures 4.7" diagonally with a 1334x750 pixel 326 ppi resolution that makes pixels indistinguishable at almost every viewing angle. This is also referred to as a "Retina" display, which Apple has been employing in its phones since the beginning of the iPhone 4 series of products.

Does the iPhone 8 have a good camera?

The main camera on this phone has 12MP which may not sound like much, but we ensure that it will be enough to take awesome quality photos in almost all scenarios. If you want an iPhone that has a second rear-facing camera lens for wide-angle shots, you may need to look elsewhere, the Gold iPhone 8 Unlocked does not have this feature.

Does the iPhone 8 offer Touch ID or Face ID?

With the help of Touch ID, the Gold iPhone 8 256 GB has the ability to verify your identity making use of a scan of your fingerprint. Despite the fact that this is theoretically a slightly older technology than Face ID, in many scenarios it can really be more comfortable to use.

How long is the battery life on the iPhone 8?

Thanks to 13 hours of battery life, the Unlocked iPhone 8 should have the capacity to last you all day without needing to recharge--unless of course you're an especially heavy user that spends a great deal of time browsing the web, streaming video, or listening to audio. In this case you may really need to recharge before your day is done.
