I feel like there's a bit of a scam going on with the sellers. I have purchased two different phones from two different companies, and neither 1 were true to what was sold. This particular phone is supposed to be an A53 5g. But what I received is the sub par model which is a UW. NOT what I ordered. A complete scam by the seller. These retail for far less than what I paid for it. And finding cars for them are about impossible. A complete scam by all rights.

My phone didn't have a scratch on it and works great so far. It was also delivered faster than expected. At this point I would definitely use Back Market again.

I order a iPhone 11 Pro Max for my wife and the cable port to charge the phone is defective. So now I need to return the phone for repairs so now I need to reset to factory setting to clear all our info off the phone and then set up her old phone with her number so she will have a phone. Order #2 I must like punishment because I order Me Galaxy A53 and The Cellular Resource store on Back Market site shipped the phone to the wrong city even though they have my address now Im trying to get a refund.

This is my first smart phone. I did a lot of research on the Samsung Galaxy's, and this one got a lot of nice reviews. As advertised, the condition was excellent. I don't particularly like the way you turn it on or off, but will deal with it. Other then that, so far I am happy with the phone.
