Samsung Galaxy Note 2 T889 16 GB White, New, T-Mobile branded, GSM unlocked
White was the second launch color of the T-Mobile Galaxy Note II, and this Samsung Note 2 T889 is new, with 16 GB of storage and GSM unlocked. It fits exporters who pair it with black for mixed lots in HSPA markets and marketplace sellers who list new-old-stock Samsung phablets to enthusiasts.
The Galaxy Note II of late 2012 established the large-screen, S Pen format: a 5.5-inch HD Super AMOLED display at 720 x 1280, a 1.6 GHz quad-core Exynos 4412, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage with microSD expansion, an 8 MP rear camera, a 1.9 MP front camera, a removable 3,100 mAh battery, and Android 4.1 with Multi Window and Air View. The SGH-T889 is the T-Mobile version, built for HSPA+ at up to 42 Mbps.
TG Wireless supplies it new and graded in black and white to exporters serving GSM markets where HSPA still runs, to S Pen collectors, and to repair shops that keep Note II donors for screens and digitizers.

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 T889 is a GSM and HSPA+ handset; T-Mobile marketed HSPA+ as 4G, but this model does not carry LTE or VoLTE. With US 3G retired in 2022 and T-Mobile 2G GSM closed on August 3, 2026, it gets no voice or data service on US carriers. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM/UMTS networks remain live and the T-Mobile band set (including AWS 1700/2100) is supported, Wi-Fi-only use as a stylus tablet-phone, collectors, and parts.
Resale fit
- Export to GSM/UMTS markets that support the T-Mobile AWS band set.
- Repair shops and parts suppliers that need Note II screens, digitizers, and S Pens.
- Collectors and marketplace sellers of the first mainstream S Pen phablet.
