LG Google Nexus 5 D820 16 GB White, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
The white LG Google Nexus 5 D820 4G LTE, 16 GB, GSM unlocked, factory refurbished and tested and graded by TG, listed as the second catalog entry for the model (name suffix -1). White was the scarcer Nexus 5 color, which makes a tested refurbished example the one collectors and prop departments request, while exporters pair it with black units in a mixed lot.
The LG D820 is the North American Nexus 5, Google's 2013 reference phone with a 4.95-inch Full HD IPS display, Snapdragon 800, 2 GB of RAM, an optically stabilized 8 MP camera, Qi charging, and radios for the GSM carriers plus Sprint CDMA and LTE. It launched on Android 4.4 KitKat and received updates to Android 6.0.1, and it was sold in black and white in 16 GB and 32 GB.
TG Wireless supplies reconditioned D820 units to exporters serving GSM and LTE markets, to developer and QA labs that want stock Android on real hardware, and to repair businesses and collectors who deal in the Nexus line.

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 5 is a 4G LTE phone; the North American D820 covers the GSM carriers and Sprint CDMA, but it predates VoLTE support on US carriers. With US 3G retired in 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G GSM shutdown on August 3, 2026, carriers now require VoLTE for voice, so the Nexus 5 is no longer accepted for activation on US networks. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Export to markets with live GSM, UMTS, or LTE service and Wi-Fi use are the realistic outlets.
Resale fit
- Export to markets where an unlocked LTE Android with a 1080p screen still activates on GSM or UMTS networks.
- Developers, QA labs, and schools that want a stock-Android reference device for Wi-Fi work.
- Collectors of Google Nexus hardware and prop departments.
- Repair shops and parts dealers that need donor Nexus 5 screens, batteries, and boards.
