HTC Amaze 4G Black 16 GB, Factory Refurbished, T-Mobile branded, GSM unlocked
Offered here is the HTC Amaze 4G in black, the T-Mobile version, factory refurbished and GSM unlocked with the standard 16 GB of internal memory. Exporters working African, Latin American, and Southeast Asian 3G markets are the main buyers for this unit, where an unlocked Android with an 8 MP camera still sells at an entry price.
The HTC Amaze 4G is a 2011 T-Mobile Android phone built around an 8 MP camera with a backside-illuminated sensor, dual LED flash, and 1080p video capture. It runs a 1.5 GHz dual-core Snapdragon S3 behind a 4.3-inch qHD Super LCD, ships with 16 GB of storage plus a microSD slot, and includes NFC, GPS, and HSPA+ 42 data on T-Mobile's bands.
TG Wireless sells the Amaze 4G to exporters serving markets where 3G service continues, to collectors of early HTC camera phones, and to repair and parts buyers who need donor units for the Amaze and its Sensation-era siblings.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so this phone, which has no LTE or VoLTE, gets no voice or data service on any US carrier. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM and UMTS service is still live, collectors, film and TV props, parts and display units, and Wi-Fi-only use where the device supports it. T-Mobile's HSPA+ 42 service, the network this phone was built for, is also gone in the US.
Resale fit
- Export to regions where T-Mobile-band UMTS and GSM networks are still running.
- Collectors and enthusiasts who want HTC's 2011 camera phone in tested condition.
- Repair shops and refurbishers sourcing screens, boards, and housings.
