The money-saving tech site where shoppers can find Apple, Samsung, GoPro and Xbox tech for hundreds less

It's no hidden fact that the price of tech gadgets has skyrocketed over the last few years, with the standard smartphone now costing an average of £900 to buy brand new. One tech site is selling discounted devices from Apple, Samsung and Xbox with savings up to as much as £600.

It's called BackMarket, a place dedicated to selling some of the latest iPhone, Google Pixel, and Galaxy S devices (to name a few) for a fraction of the price. After covering some of the recent 2023 tech launches on the Mirror tech team, it's common for new handsets to reach as much as £1,749 each like the Google Pixel Fold, but prices on the site average at around £300.

You may be wondering how the devices are sold with a massive discount, and it's all down to its stock of refurbished second-hand models, labelled to be sold as almost 'as good as new'. It's here where we've found models iPhone models for £120 and some Samsung Galaxy models under £200.
