The phone arrived in good time and in good condition. It looks brand new unless you inspect it very carefully. It is continuing to perform well, and is doing everything it should do. Very happy with it.

I'm really happy with the Samsung I ordered, it arrived in perfect condition, and everything works well on the phone itself. Would recommend Back Market to others and have already done so!
