The LG eXpo GW820 was AT&T's late-2009 business smartphone and the first North American phone with Qualcomm's 1 GHz Snapdragon: a touchscreen with a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard, Windows Mobile 6.5 with Office document editing, a fingerprint sensor used for both navigation and unlocking, a 5 MP autofocus camera with flash, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.1, GPS, and a socket for LG's optional snap-on pico projector. Data runs on quad-band GSM and tri-band HSDPA 3G.
TG Wireless supplies the eXpo to collector shops and enthusiasts who want a working Windows Mobile keyboard phone, to prop houses that need a 2009 business handset, and to exporters covering markets with live 3G service.

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 eXpo GW820 is a 2G GSM and 3G UMTS phone with no LTE. US 3G was retired in 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G GSM closed on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US cellular service today, whatever its lock state; see the network status line in the table. Its 3G bands of 850, 1900, and 2100 MHz still fit markets abroad where UMTS runs. Wi-Fi works for offline and browser use, and the keyboard and projector support keep it in demand with collectors.
Resale fit
- Collector shops and Windows Mobile enthusiasts who want a working eXpo with the fingerprint sensor and keyboard.
- Prop houses and set dressers that need a 2009-era AT&T business smartphone.
- Export to markets where GSM and UMTS service remains live on 850, 1900, or 2100 MHz.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and retailers.
