Description
HTC Nexus One, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory refurbished HTC Nexus One, the first Google phone, GSM unlocked, with the 3.7-inch AMOLED and trackball. Refurbished units give collectors and tech-history displays a clean working Nexus One without sealed-box pricing, and exporters can place them in GSM markets with live 3G once the band version is matched. Confirm the band version with your account manager.
The Nexus One is the first Google-branded phone, built by HTC and released in January 2010: a 3.7-inch 480 x 800 AMOLED display, a 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD8250, 512 MB of RAM, 512 MB of internal flash with a 4 GB microSD card supplied, a 5 MP autofocus camera with LED flash, Wi-Fi, GPS, a trackball with notification light, noise cancellation, and HSPA 3G on GSM bands. It launched Android 2.1 and reached 2.3.6, and was sold unlocked by Google in T-Mobile-band and AT&T-band versions.
TG Wireless sells the Nexus One to collectors and museums, prop departments, and exporters with live 3G GSM markets.

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
The Nexus One is a 2G/3G GSM phone made in two 3G band versions, T-Mobile 1700/2100 MHz AWS and AT&T 850/1900 MHz; match the version to the destination network. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so this phone, with no LTE or VoLTE, gets no service on any US carrier. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM and UMTS service, collectors, props, parts, and Wi-Fi-only use.
Resale fit
- Collectors and museums wanting the first Google Nexus device.
- Film and TV props for 2010 to 2013 settings.
- Export to GSM/UMTS markets matching the unit's 3G band version.
- Parts and display units.
