Completely happy with my purchase. It replaces my old 8 Plus that cannot charge anymore. It is completely functional and the battery life is as stated by Back Market. Instead of buying a new phone that has not got anything in it that I want, this old IPhone 8 Plus meets all my needs. Great saving of money and environmental friendly. It's strange that most people by new all the time adding to environmental waste, while maintaining they are trying to stop climate change. Strange, conundrum and hypocritical.

The phone is in great condition and is working well, although I've only had it for 4 days. It took longer than stated to arrive, I was then given a delivery date for April which I objected to, the phone arrived soon after. I'm pleased with my purchase. Thank you.

Can’t review it as never received it. Appalling customer service. Was told someone would get back to us and no one did. Eventually raised a PayPal dispute to get my money back. Still have no idea what happened
