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 Vortex VS660 is a CDMA handset built for the Verizon network family and has no LTE or VoLTE. Verizon retired its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, and no US carrier activates CDMA-only phones now, so this unit gets no US voice or data service. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collectors and retro-tech shops, film and TV props, parts, store display units, and offline media playback where the phone supports it.
Resale fit
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working Verizon-family handsets from the 2000s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct phones in a known color.
- Wi-Fi-only use: kiosks, test benches, and app developers who need a Froyo build.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
