Description
LG Optimus Hub E510 White, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
White is the finish on this LG Optimus Hub E510, graded Factory Refurbished and described as GSM unlocked in the listing. Collector shops and prop departments that want a complete, boxed early LG Android in a specific color take this one, and exporters add it to mixed lots for markets where 3G GSM service is still live.
The LG Optimus Hub E510 is a 2011 Android 2.3 phone positioned as the step up from the Optimus One, with a larger 3.5-inch touchscreen, an 800 MHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, a 5-megapixel autofocus camera, and a 1,500 mAh battery. It added Wi-Fi Direct and DLNA sharing alongside 3G data and Wi-Fi, and it was sold unlocked for GSM networks in Asia and Latin America.
TG Wireless sells the Hub as a refurbished, boxed early Android to exporters serving markets with live UMTS service, to collector shops that want LG's Optimus line complete, and to repair shops needing a working donor unit.

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. The refurbished lot is listed with original battery, battery door, charger, data cable, user guide, and retail box.
Network and compatibility
The Optimus Hub E510 is a GSM/UMTS phone with 3G data and no LTE or VoLTE. All three US national carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile ended 2G GSM service on August 3, 2026, so it no longer registers for calls or data on a US network. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Buyers move it into export markets where GSM or UMTS is still live, to collectors and prop houses, to parts dealers, and to Wi-Fi-only use.
Resale fit
- Export to markets where GSM or UMTS service is still live and an early Android phone sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working early-2010s LG Android handsets.
- Wi-Fi-only use: kiosks, test benches, and app developers who need a period Android build.
