Phone condition excellent. Not a scratch on it and works rapidly with good battery life. I've previously had the identical phone brand new and don't notice the difference between this and a brand new phone - other than the price.

Everything works fine. The first few days, the battery discharged very quickly. As I'm currently immobilised, I haven't yet been able to test the life track function to see if it's sufficient for a 4 or 5 hour bike ride.

The device is in very good condition on the outside. The battery, which appears to be new, does, however, need to be recharged every day...
