The whole process was easy from ordering through receiving the refurbished phone. BackMarket is great to work with.

Device arrived in Excellent condition as guaranteed + within 48 hours of placing my order. The missing star is due to its incompatibility with an eSIM; not a deal breaker yet required an additional purchase and order timeline to securely setup. This is my 3rd BackMarket purchase and I'll keep returning plus recommending your carbon reducing, planet loving products and service.

Received my phone within two days and was delivered on a Sunday! Looks and performs like a new phone. I feel better knowing that I reused and recycled. Better for the environment. I think in the future I'll get all my phones from Back Street. Thanks!

Phone is in good condition. The only exception is that the top of the screen has a slight screen burn smear. Other than that, the phone functions well and I was able to transfer the SIM from my old phone into the new phone without any problems

I tried three other ways to get this phone but something went wrong on all attempts. Blackmarket nailed it on the first try! The phone is in better than advertised condition and works perfectly! Thank you for a pleasant transaction.

Great experience! The phone is exactly what I expected, the prices are fantastic and I got a discount on my Visible phone plan. 12/10 stars from me on this one. I will be a lifelong customer for sure.

I have bought several products from back market. and I am the true customer now. anything I need I check on back market first. I boughten refurbished products before and never was satisfied they never seem to work properly or always had a fault to them. back market is not that crew. when you buy a product from back market you get a grade A product. anything I buy now about through back market. I'm getting ready to purchase another smartphone and of course I'm going to purchase it from back market. when you purchase from back market what you get is a new product. it might be refurbished but when they get done with it it's like new. thank you back market for not being like the other companies that refurbish products. You're definitely a standalone company.
