Samsung Galaxy C8 C7100 32 GB Gold, New, GSM unlocked
Champagne gold is the signature C-series finish, and this lot is the brand new Samsung Galaxy C8 C7100 Gold 32GB, GSM unlocked with 4G LTE. Gold C8 units go to exporters serving China, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia, where a boxed gold metal Samsung with a 16 MP selfie camera has a ready customer.
The Galaxy C8, model SM-C7100, is a 2017 mid-range Samsung built for the Chinese market, a close relative of the Galaxy J7+. It pairs a 5.5-inch Full HD Super AMOLED display with an all-metal body, a MediaTek Helio P20 chipset, 32 GB of storage with 3 GB of RAM, a 13 MP f/1.7 plus 5 MP dual rear camera, a 16 MP front camera with flash, a fingerprint reader, and a 3,000 mAh battery on Android 7.1 Nougat.
Exporters buy the C8 from TG Wireless as a boxed metal-bodied Samsung with a dual camera for Asian and other GSM markets where the C series was sold, and collectors of China-market Samsungs take it as an uncommon variant.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Galaxy C8 is a GSM and LTE handset and these lots are GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. The SM-C7100 is a China-market model with an LTE band set built around Chinese TD-LTE and FDD bands rather than US bands 2, 4, 12, 13, 66, and 71, so US coverage would be poor and VoLTE acceptance unlikely. With US 3G gone since 2022 and T-Mobile 2G off since August 3, 2026, treat the C8 as an export handset and confirm bands against the destination network.
Resale fit
- Export to China, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and other GSM markets where the C series sold and a boxed metal Samsung with a dual camera is an easy sell.
- Collectors and enthusiasts of China-market Samsung variants who want a new-in-box SM-C7100.
