I got this phone for my youngest daughter and as a test to see how ordering a refurbished phone would go...to my surprise this iPhone 8 really was in excellent condition. It looks brand new and The battery is lasting her all day too. The day I received this phone, I came back to order a different phone for myself, and it arrives today. I am very excited and I would absolutely recommend buying from back market, I plan to buy an iPad soon and will be shopping from here when I do. I love the fast shipping too.

I love love LOVE being able to purchase these refurbished items. I use this for all of my phones and tech and I haven't been let down yet. I bought a brand new laptop for $1200 from a manufacturer and it lasted less than a year, but everything that I bought from here has worked so well for the past 5-ish years! I work in IT so I started buying here figuring that I could just fix this cheap stuff as it breaks but (knock on wood) everything has been working great! The only issue I have ever have has been Apple killing the battery of old phones with updates, but they do that even with non-refurbished stuff. I feel a lot better spending $200-$400 every 3 years for a new-to-me phone instead of $800-$1500. My whole family uses it now too because saving money and preventing electronic waste is awesome since being green usually costs more instead of less. What a great deal!

I bought a Mac mini from here last year for my teen and was very satisfied with that purchase. I returned for an iPhone 8, my teen's first phone, and had my husband set it up. He was very impressed with its condition and speed considering it was an iPhone 8; he purchased an iPhone 13 from Back Market the same night. I won't be drinking the Apple Juice anytime soon but my guys are happy.

The phone has a few quirks. It has a jumpy screen when I try to enlarge. Suddenly goes dark from time to time. Does not show missed calls. Shows the red dot, but doesn’t list them. If I turn my phone off, then back on then I can see them. I still stand up for refurbishing a phone instead of staying in debt to have a new one. Makes no sense to me.

His phone was not “wiped” before shipping. It had software etc on it. It therefore was nearly impossible to transfer data. I spent 2 hours with both t mobile and apple tech support to get just minimal performance. It requires a passcode which I hate. Nasty little iPhone

I have owned this phone close to 4 years now, and hate to get rid of it but I need more storage space for webinars, etc. it was an excellent phone, although it was listed as very good. No scratches, dents anything. I definitely recommend Backmarket to anyone who wants to outright purchase their phone for an outstanding price. I believe that you get what you pay for, but in this case, I got a lot more. I am extremely grateful for them!

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 - Unlocked

Is the iPhone 8 worth it?

Regardless of its age, the Gold iPhone 8 256 GB is an excellent cell phone that can handle pretty much every application on the Apple App Store. You don't need to get the most recent smartphone for mobile gaming or music/video streaming, you can choose this used smartphone and get the same functionality that you would get out of a much newer iPhone.

Unlocked iPhone 8 specifications & dimensions

This Unlocked iPhone 8 Gold was first launched on September 22nd 2017 and possesses a premium glass/aluminum body. It's 5.45 inches tall, and 2.65 inches wide with a depth of 0.29" and a weight of 5.22oz. The Gold iPhone 8 256 GB is a cell phone that feels and looks modern, has a pretty good camera and battery life, and will certainly feel great during everyday usage.

How much storage space do you really need in a Unlocked iPhone 8?

This phone has 256 GB of storage space which will be used to download all your favorite images, songs, and videos. If you plan on downloading a bunch of music or snapping tons of photos, you will probably want to settle for a phone with a high storage capacity like 128GB, 256GB, or maybe even 512GB.

How much RAM does the Unlocked iPhone 8 have?

Because of the Apple A11 processor inside, this smartphone is able to stay snappy no matter what app you wish to use. Thanks to the 2GB of RAM that is built into the phone, you shouldn't experience any troubles with running multiple apps at once or multitasking.

Does the iPhone 8 have an OLED or LCD screen?

If you're a true phone geek, you'll wonder what kind of screen technology is featured in this phone: this Gold iPhone 8 has a 4.7 inch 1334x750 pixel 326 ppi screen. This is also called a "Retina" display, which Apple has been utilizing in its mobile phones since the release of the iPhone 4 series of products.

Does the iPhone 8 have a good camera?

The main camera on this cell phone has 12MP which may not sound like much, but we guarantee that it will suffice to take first-rate quality pics in most 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?

The Unlocked iPhone 8 uses Touch ID, which scans your fingerprint to unlock the phone. It's True, Face ID is considered to be a newer development, yet this doesn't mean that it's superior or more secure, and it's totally a matter of taste whether you favor Touch ID or Face ID.

How long is the battery life on the iPhone 8?

With 13 hours of battery life, the Unlocked iPhone 8 should be able to last you all day without needing to recharge--unless of course you're an especially heavy user that spends a good deal of time navigating the web, streaming video, or listening to songs. In this case you may need to charge before your day is done.
