Description
LG CG300 Quad-band, Carrier Returns, GSM unlocked
Carrier-return LG CG300 GSM Unlocked Quad-band units, graded A-stock by the old listing and tested and graded by TG on receipt, listed with original battery, battery door, charger, user guide, and LG box. Exporters who want a quad-band Bluetooth flip at return-grade cost take this lot; prop houses buy a few for background use.
The LG CG300 is a quad-band GSM clamshell that Cingular sold around 2006 with Push-To-Talk, Bluetooth with up to 10 pairings, a VGA camera with flash that stores up to 300 images, an external display, a speakerphone, instant messaging on AIM, ICQ, and Yahoo, Java MIDP 2.0 downloads, and a WAP 2.0 browser over GPRS Class 10. The PTT feature let users reach individuals or groups of up to 30 on the carrier's walkie-talkie service, which no longer exists.
TG Wireless offers the CG300 to exporters who supply quad-band 2G flips to markets with live GSM service, to collectors of Cingular-era handsets, and to prop buyers; it has no US network use today.

Condition: Carrier Returns
Carrier return units come back through a carrier channel and are tested and graded by TG on receipt. Expect a mix of open-box and lightly handled units; cosmetics and packaging are confirmed per lot by your account manager.
Network and compatibility
The LG CG300 is a 2G GSM handset with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. The listing gives its GSM bands as quad-band GSM. US carriers shut down 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US voice or data service today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM service, collectors, props, parts, and display units. The Push-To-Talk function depended on a carrier service that has been discontinued.
Resale fit
- Export lots for regions where 2G GSM service is still live and a simple tested handset sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working LG feature phones from the 2000s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct handsets.
