Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0" T385 Black 4G LTE, New, GSM unlocked
Offered new, this Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0" T385 in Black is 4G LTE and GSM Unlocked, with 16 GB of storage per the source. Black is the fleet color: field-service and delivery operators order it for vehicle mounts and mobile point-of-sale, where the SIM slot removes the dependence on a phone hotspot.
Samsung's SM-T385 is the LTE version of the 2017 Galaxy Tab A 8.0: the same metal body, 8-inch 1280 x 800 IPS display, Snapdragon 425, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage with microSD up to 256 GB, 8 MP f/1.9 rear and 5 MP front cameras, and 5,000 mAh battery, plus a SIM slot and 4G LTE. It shipped on Android 7.1 and was updated to Android 8.1. Dealers buy the T385 from TG Wireless when a compact tablet needs its own connection: delivery and field-service fleets, prepaid data plans, mobile point-of-sale, and export to GSM markets where connected tablets outsell Wi-Fi models.

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 SM-T385 is an LTE tablet sold GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Its listed LTE bands include 2, 4, 5, and 17, which cover AT&T and T-Mobile data in most areas, though bands 12, 66, and 71 are absent, so confirm coverage and carrier device acceptance before buying for US data plans. LTE tablet data is unaffected by the 2022 3G retirements and T-Mobile's 2G shutdown on August 3, 2026. The tablet works fully on Wi-Fi anywhere.
