Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket I727 16 GB Black, New, AT&T branded, GSM unlocked
Brand new Samsung Skyrocket I727 Galaxy S II in Black, 16 GB, AT&T's LTE Galaxy of 2011, GSM unlocked per the original description, in its original packaging. Sealed Skyrockets are collector and prop items first, and exporters second, since the phone still activates on live 2G and 3G GSM networks abroad but not on US carriers.
The Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727 was AT&T's first LTE Galaxy, launched in November 2011 with a 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen, a dual-core 1.5 GHz processor, 16 GB of storage plus microSD, an 8-megapixel camera with 1080p video, a 2-megapixel front camera, HDMI output through MHL, and a 9.49 mm body. It shipped on Android 2.3 and was updated by AT&T to Android 4.1.
TG Wireless sells the Skyrocket in new and A Grade condition to exporters working GSM markets with live legacy networks, to parts and repair businesses, and to collectors who want AT&T's first LTE Samsung in black or white. It no longer carries voice on US carriers.

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 S II Skyrocket I727 is a 2011 LTE phone without VoLTE, built when calls still ran over 2G and 3G. With US 3G retired in 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G shut down on August 3, 2026, it no longer gets voice service on any US carrier; LTE data alone does not qualify it for activation. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM or UMTS service, Wi-Fi use, collectors, props and parts.
Resale fit
- Exporters supplying GSM markets where 2G and 3G voice is still live and a 4.5-inch Android still sells.
- Repair shops and parts dealers that need Skyrocket screens, boards and batteries.
- Collectors and prop houses that want AT&T's first LTE Galaxy.
- Wi-Fi-only use for media, kiosks and testing.
