HTC Shadow Sage Green Wi-Fi, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory refurbished and GSM unlocked, this HTC Shadow Sage Green WI-FI T-Mobile slider is the first-generation Shadow in its signature green finish. Sage green is the color collectors associate with the model, and export dealers take unlocked refurbished units for GSM markets where a Windows Mobile slider still finds hobbyist buyers.
The original HTC Shadow, sold by T-Mobile US from 2007, is a slider smartphone running Windows Mobile 6 Standard with a simplified T-Mobile interface meant to make a smartphone feel like a regular phone. It has a 2.6-inch LCD, a spinning scroll wheel, a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth with stereo streaming, Wi-Fi, microSD expansion to 4 GB, quad-band GSM 850/900/1800/1900 with EDGE, Word and Excel editing, and up to 5 hours of talk time. It came in colors including sage green and copper brown. Dealers buy the Shadow from TG Wireless factory refurbished for collectors, props, and export to GSM markets, as its 2G-only radio has no US service.

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 Shadow is a 2G GSM-only phone with EDGE data. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so it has no US cellular service. This unit is GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Its quad-band radio still registers in countries with live GSM service, and Wi-Fi works for offline and local use. Realistic uses are export, collectors, props, and parts.
Resale fit
- Collectors of T-Mobile Shadow and early Windows Mobile sliders.
- Film, TV, and display props from 2007.
- Export to GSM markets where a working unlocked 2G smartphone still sells.
