LG GS500 Cookie PLUS 3G Black Touchscreen, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory Refurbished LG GS500 Cookie PLUS 3G in Black, GSM Unlocked, reconditioned to close-to-new working order and tested. Refurbished black units are the practical tier for export dealers who need consistent cosmetics across a lot at a lower cost than new, and for prop houses buying multiples. Confirm packaging contents with your account manager.
The LG GS500 Cookie Plus is the 2010 follow-up to LG's budget Cookie touchscreen: a 3.0-inch 240 x 400 resistive touchscreen, a 3 megapixel camera, 3G HSDPA data, a social-networking interface with dedicated Facebook and Twitter access, LiveSquare avatar contacts, Editable Screenshot MMS, and LG's animated themed UI, in a slim candybar sold in several colors. It is a GSM/UMTS feature phone with no LTE and no Wi-Fi.
TG Wireless sells the Cookie Plus in new, carrier-return, and refurbished lots to exporters serving GSM/UMTS markets where it was a volume model, to prop houses, and to collector shops.

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 Cookie Plus is a GSM/UMTS phone with no LTE or VoLTE and no Wi-Fi. All US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile ended 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so the GS500 gets no voice or data service in the United States today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The phone remains usable in Latin American, European, and Asian markets with live GSM or UMTS coverage; band lists are not in the source, so check the regional variant before volume.
Resale fit
- Export to GSM/UMTS markets where the Cookie Plus sold at retail and 3G service is still live.
- Prop and set-dressing stock for 2010-era budget touchscreen phones in several colors.
- Collector resale of sealed color variants.
- Parts and display units for repair shops.
