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. Ships with the original battery, battery door, and charger in a retail box, per the listing.
Network and compatibility
The GW300 is a 2G GSM phone with no 3G or LTE radio. US carriers have retired 2G GSM service, so do not expect it to register for calls or data on any US network. On live GSM networks abroad its quad-band radio covers the standard 2G frequencies, and it functions fully as an offline device for music, FM radio, and camera use. Confirm the destination market still runs 2G GSM before ordering for export.
Resale fit
- Export to markets with live 2G GSM networks, where a QWERTY texting phone sells as a basic handset.
- Collectors and prop houses sourcing late-2000s messaging phones.
- Buyers who want an offline media and FM radio device with a physical keyboard.
- Parts and housings for other GW300 units.
