Very happy with the phone (Samsung Galaxy A3 2017). Arrived in 4 days. Almost perfect condition with only a couple of tiny scratches around the frame. The screen is perfect with absolutely no marks at all. Battery life seems good so far. I am very pleased with my purchase from Back Market and the seller Alloccaz.

In very good condition as stated. This is my second refurbished Samsung A3 and I am very pleased with it. Compact, it is particularly solid and even waterproof and dustproof.

The device is as described. With the case on, you can't see the few marks on the phone and the screen is perfect. It works very well and is perfect for the way I use it. The only downside is that the camera isn't as good as the S10 I had before.

Hi ! Very happy with a quick and good deal. The mobile works well. But keyboard language is not for Sweden , only English and German letters. Tried to update and download Swedish but can not. It is something you should think about / inform about. Regards Ingwar Nilsson

The appliance appears to be in perfect condition. There was a problem with the delivery which had to be reprogrammed. It's a shame that a Samsung French keyboard isn't available, I had to download a Google version.

I'd had the same one for 8 years and it was starting to show signs of weakness. I went back to the same one because I'm very happy with it.
