Samsung Galaxy Note 8 N950U 64 GB Black, New, GSM/CDMA unlocked
New, unused Samsung Galaxy Note 8 N950U in Black (Samsung's Midnight Black) with 64GB of storage, GSM/CDMA unlocked for 4G LTE on any US carrier that still supports the model. Sealed Note 8 stock is scarce now, so corporate buyers standardizing on the S Pen, and exporters serving markets where a boxed Note still commands a premium, are the usual takers.
The Galaxy Note 8 is Samsung's 2017 S Pen flagship: a 6.3-inch Quad HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity Display, the Snapdragon 835 in the US N950U version, 6 GB of RAM, a microSD slot, and the first dual rear camera on a Samsung phone, with optical stabilization on both the wide and telephoto lenses. It is IP68 rated, charges over USB-C, and supports Samsung DeX desktop mode and Knox enterprise management.
Field-service and logistics fleets buy the Note 8 from TG Wireless because the S Pen still fits signature-capture and form-filling workflows, and refurbishers and exporters take it as a large-screen Samsung that holds a recognizable name at a mid-tier cost.

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 N950U is the US multi-carrier Galaxy Note 8 with both GSM and CDMA LTE bands and VoLTE, so it is unaffected by the 2022 3G retirements and the August 2026 T-Mobile 2G shutdown. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Unlocked N950U units register on AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and their prepaid brands where the carrier still accepts the model, and VoLTE provisioning depends on the carrier, so confirm acceptance before committing to volume. The phone takes a single nano-SIM.
Resale fit
- Field-service, delivery, and healthcare fleets that use the S Pen for signatures and forms on a large screen.
- Refurbishers and marketplace sellers who want a recognizable Samsung flagship name at a mid-tier cost.
- Export to Latin America and other markets where unlocked GSM/CDMA Samsung phablets with microSD slots still sell well.
- Repair shops stocking tested Note 8 units as loaners and as donors for screens and S Pens.
