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.

That's like running a faucet for 3 days

Everything you ever wanted to know about the iPhone 8 Cricket

Is the iPhone 8 still a good phone?

Regardless of its age, the Silver iPhone 8 256 GB is still a great mobile phone that can handle any app on the Apple App Store. So whether you really want to do some mobile gaming or be the most popular kid in school, this used iPhone should suit you just fine, despite its age.


What are the specifications & dimensions of the Silver iPhone 8?

This Cricket iPhone 8 Silver was first uncovered on 22 September 2017 and has a premium glass/aluminum body. It's 5.45" tall, and 2.65" wide with a depth of 0.29" and a weight of 5.22 ounces. The Silver iPhone 8 256 GB is a smartphone that still looks and feels modern, has a good camera and battery life, and will definitely feel great during normal use.


How much is enough storage for the Cricket iPhone 8?

The 256 GB of storage space on your Silver iPhone 8 will be used to store photos, videos, and tunes right on your device. And keep in mind, if you're the kind of person that usually downloads a bunch of digital media, you're probably going to want to buy a phone with a minimum of 128GB of storage space.


How much RAM does the Cricket iPhone 8 have?

This Silver iPhone 8 256 GB comes equipped with the Apple A11 processor, which gives the smartphone substantial power to take on any app that you may want to run. Its 2 GB of RAM will enable you to comfortably run a few apps at the same time without stalling the device.


Does the iPhone 8 have an OLED or LCD display?

The Cricket iPhone 8 features an LCD screen that measures 4.7 inches diagonally with a 1334x750 pixel 326 ppi resolution that makes pixels indistinguishable from almost any viewing distance. Apple labels this a "Retina" display, which is the same great screen tech that Apple launched in the iPhone 4, gradually fine-tuned over the years.


How is the camera on the Cricket iPhone 8?

With a 12MP main camera, you can also trust the Cricket iPhone 8 to give you terrific photos with true-to-life colors due to Apple's color science. If you want an iPhone that has a second rear-facing camera lens for wide-angle shots, you may need to look elsewhere, the Silver iPhone 8 Cricket does not have this feature.


Does the iPhone 8 feature Touch ID?

The Cricket iPhone 8 utilizes Touch ID, which scans your fingerprint to unlock the device. Yes, Face ID is considered to be a newer development, however that doesn't mean that it's better or more safe, and it's definitely a matter of taste whether you favor Touch ID or Face ID.


What is the battery life on the Cricket iPhone 8?

Thanks to 13 hours of battery life, the Cricket iPhone 8 should have the ability to last you all day without needing to recharge--unless of course you're an exceptionally heavy user that devotes a good deal of time navigating the web, watching video, or listening to music. In this case you may need to charge before your day is done.
