Description
LG CU405 3G Quad-band, Factory Refurbished, AT&T GSM unlocked
The LG CU405 3G Quad-band in this lot is an AT&T-branded flip, GSM unlocked per the old listing, Factory Refurbished to close-to-new working order and shipped with original battery, charger, car charger, user guide, and retail box. Exporters who want a complete boxed 3G flip for UMTS markets, and collectors of AT&T-era LG phones, are the buyers.
The LG CU405 is a 2007 AT&T clamshell that followed the CU400: a quad-band GSM world phone with UMTS 3G for Cellular Video streaming, Bluetooth, a one-touch speakerphone, Push to Talk, mobile email, and instant messaging in a compact flip. It was sold to customers who wanted 3G video and PTT without a smartphone plan, and the listing shows it with original battery, charger, car charger, user guide, and retail box.
TG Wireless offers the CU405 as a Factory Refurbished lot to exporters who supply quad-band flips to markets with live GSM or UMTS service, to collectors of early 3G AT&T phones, and to prop buyers; it has no US network use today.

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 LG CU405 is a GSM/UMTS phone with 3G data and no LTE or VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile ended 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it no longer registers for calls or data on a US network. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Buyers move it to export markets where GSM or UMTS is live, to collectors and prop houses, to parts dealers, and to Wi-Fi-only use where supported.
Resale fit
- Export to markets where GSM or UMTS service is still live and a feature phone or early Android sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working LG handsets from the late 2000s and early 2010s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct phones.
