LG KP220 Shine, New, GSM unlocked
The LG KP220 Shine listed here is a brand new, GSM unlocked tri-band candy-bar phone with a dedicated music key, 1.3 MP camera and FM radio, shipped with the original charger, battery, stereo headset, data cable and LG retail box. Prop houses and collector shops take it as an unused 2008 basic phone, and exporters can still activate it on live GSM 900/1800 networks.
The LG KP220 is a 2008 candy-bar music phone, listed here under the Shine name, with a compact 1.7-inch display, a dedicated music key, playback controls on the d-pad, a 1.3 MP camera, FM radio, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, 60 MB of memory and a microSD slot. It is a tri-band GSM 900/1800/1900 handset weighing 72 g, built for calls, texts and MP3s.
Collector shops, prop houses and exporters buy the KP220 from TG Wireless as a new, boxed LG basic phone with the full original accessory set. It is not a US activation phone; the realistic buyers are vintage collectors, props and display users, and dealers in markets where 2G GSM is still live.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The KP220 is a 2G-only GSM phone on 900/1800/1900 MHz with no 3G or LTE. It cannot get service on any US carrier: T-Mobile's 2G GSM network, the last in the US, shut down on August 3, 2026, and the phone lacks the 850 MHz band in any case. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM 900/1800 is still live, collectors and enthusiasts, film and TV props, and parts or display units. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table.
