I am resubmitting this review because somehow the rating was a 2 star from me and I don’t recall hitting that button. I was giving it a 4 out of 5 because it was supposed to have been unlocked for all carriers but was not. This is my 4th phone from BackMarket and it is a great company. The phone was in immaculate condition and I put it through some paces using WiFi for a few hours but have to send it back to get a really unlocked phone. I expect great customer service because they do that well. I’m sorry if my error affected negatively the company and/or the refurbisher. I just don’t know how to remove it. If I figure it out I will.Galaxy S21 FE 5GOverall performance

I purchased the Samsung S21 Fe after breaking my Samsung A32 twice. I couldn't be more pleased. I paid for overnight shipping and the phone was here in fewer than 12 hours. I've had the phone about a week now and it is outstanding. It was basically Flawless when it arrived, despite being purchased from the fair category. The battery life has been on par with what you would expect from a new version of this phone. I would definitely buy from back Market again. In fact, I'm looking at purchasing a smartwatchGalaxy S21 FE 5GOverall performance

The product itself came in great condition. It has worked well for over a month now. The only issues I have had are really a few minor things with the software which I am sure are bugs on Samsung's side (sometimes trying to click the space bar instead adds a period and sometimes clicking a button or icon near the the right side or top of the screen fails if it is too close to the edge). Overall, I am really liking the phone!Galaxy S21 FE 5GOverall performance

The phone was fully unlocked. I had no issues getting my phone connected with my current provider. The phone looked brand new and I'm loving it! My current provider only offered this phone in grey. NoW I have it in purple for half theGalaxy S21 FE 5GOverall performance

Phones were disabled by Verizon due to very large balance owed by pervious owner of these items. No recourse but to return and try again. This is not on Back Market but these phones should have never been sent out, per Verizon, even a Verizon sim would not work until the debt is paid.Galaxy S21 FE 5G VerizonOverall performance

The phone is in good condition and works well so far. However, it is not unlocked as it is supposed to be, so I have spent the last week trying to change my phone number to Verizon. Huge unnecessary stress.Galaxy S21 FE 5GOverall performance

I've usually upgraded directly with Verizon. This was an easy process, no hassle, quick shipment and everything works. I would definitely use Back Market again. Saved so much money going this route too.Galaxy S21 FE 5G VerizonOverall performance

Great experience with Back Market. My only issue is that I chose excellent quality and there was one or 2 scratches on the screen that I wasn't expecting. I would rate this phone quality as "good" not "excellent". Shipping was fast. Another issue was when I activated my phone, I kept getting a notification that my sim cards wasn't from Verizon and from what I read you just have to deal with that notification because it's a system app and you can't turn off notifications. Also, the 21fe is a great phone and all, but I was coming from a Galaxy s9+ and the difference in performance is very minimal. If I could go back, I would have just kept my S9+ until it crapped out on me (:Galaxy S21 FE 5GOverall performance
