BLU Aria T174 Black / Red, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
In black / red, this factory refurbished BLU Aria T174 is the same 2G GSM keypad phone with a VGA camera, Bluetooth, MP3 and MP4 playback, and FM radio, GSM unlocked. The red trim is the more visible of the two finishes, which suits prop work and counter display as well as live-2G export lots.
The BLU Aria T174 is a basic 2G GSM candy-bar feature phone from BLU's early catalog: a 1.8-inch 65K-color screen, a VGA camera with LED flash, Bluetooth, an MP3 and MP4 player, FM radio, and built-in games, sold in two-tone colors. It makes calls and texts on GSM networks and has no 3G, Wi-Fi, or app platform.
TG Wireless offers reconditioned Aria T174 units to exporters serving markets where 2G GSM service is still live and a cheap tested keypad phone sells at the counter, and to prop and parts buyers who need a generic small feature phone.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
The Aria T174 is a 2G GSM handset with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. US carriers shut down 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US voice or data service today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses: export to live-GSM markets, collectors, props, parts, and display units.
Resale fit
- Export lots for regions where 2G GSM service is still live and a basic tested keypad phone sells at the lowest ticket.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need a generic small feature phone.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
