Great phone that came in almost perfect condition (one tiny nick on the back that is barely visible). Worked well right out of the box and had no issues. Tested battery life against my old phone and it was definitely much better, so overall would highly recommend.

Almost no signs of wear. The body may have very light micro-scratches. For items with screens, the screen will have no scratches.

Honestly, smoothest transactions I have ever had. Told the entire office I work in about Back Market. Everyone bought something that day when they saw their inventory. This is the 3rd phone that I have bought. I'll never deal with the cellphone companies again after finding this to get affordable options for upgrades.

Fantastic, phone arrived promptly, and in perfect condition. couldnt see any difference between this and a new $900 phone in a verizon box, except a $600+ price variance in my favour. Highly Reccomended!!!

The phone works as good as any brand new phone! Which is, of course, what one would hope for when purchasing a refurbished phone. It's exactly what was expected and hoped for with no complaint.

The phone is in great condition. USPS gets a bad rating but that had nothing to do with the seller A++

Came in exactly as described in great condition with a charging cable. Was very easy to transfer information to my new phone without any issues. It hasn't been long (only a month) since I've been using it but I haven't had any difficulties so far. I did notice I missed a call from a friend and it didn't show up in my history which is something I dealt with with my last phone.

The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G is a well-rounded smartphone from Samsung’s 2021 lineup, designed to offer many flagship features in a slightly more accessible package. Released in early 2022, this model is a generation behind the latest S22 series but still delivers solid performance and a versatile camera setup.

Key features:

Release Date: January 2022
Display: 6.4-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X, FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: Exynos 2100 (global) / Snapdragon 888 (USA)
Camera: Triple rear cameras: 12MP wide, 12MP ultra-wide, 8MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom
Connectivity: 5G compatible for fast network speeds
Operating System: Ships with Android 12 and Samsung’s One UI

Who is this for?

The Galaxy S21 FE 5G is suited for users who want a balanced smartphone experience with flagship-level display and camera capabilities but can accept a model that is one generation old. It fits well for professionals and students who need reliable performance for daily tasks, social media, and photography without requiring the absolute latest hardware. Compared to the Galaxy S21 Ultra, the S21 FE is lighter and more compact but with fewer premium features.

Pros & Cons: Pros Cons Vibrant 120Hz AMOLED display suitable for smooth scrolling and media consumption. No official IP68 water resistance rating unlike higher-end models. Versatile triple-camera setup with telephoto zoom. Processor varies by region, which can affect performance consistency. 5G connectivity for faster network speeds. Plastic back panel instead of glass may feel less premium.
