LG Zafiro MG810 Black GSM Unlocked, Carrier Returns
LG Zafiro MG810 flips in black, GSM unlocked, supplied as carrier returns that TG tests and grades on receipt; the earlier listing graded them A-stock. Export dealers serving Latin American markets with live GSM service know the Zafiro by name, and collector shops buy it as the clamshell Chocolate with the glowing touch music keys.
The LG MG810, sold in Latin America as the Zafiro, is the 2007 clamshell member of LG's Chocolate line. It has a polished black shell with touch-sensitive music keys that glow red on the outside, a 176 x 220 internal display with 262,000 colors, a 96 x 96 external display, a 1.3 MP camera with flash and 4x digital zoom, an MP3/WMA player with stereo speakers, FM radio, Bluetooth with stereo headset support, 128 MB of internal memory, and USB mass-storage mode. The radio is tri-band 2G GSM.
Dealers buy the Zafiro from TG Wireless as tested carrier-return stock for Latin American export, collector shops, and prop houses that want the Chocolate look in a flip.

Condition: Carrier Returns
Carrier return units come back through a carrier channel and are tested and graded by TG on receipt. Expect a mix of open-box and lightly handled units; cosmetics and packaging are confirmed per lot by your account manager.
Network and compatibility
The LG Zafiro MG810 is a 2G GSM handset with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. The listing gives its GSM bands as tri-band GSM 850/1800/1900 MHz. US carriers shut down 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so this phone cannot get voice or data service on any US carrier today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM service, collectors, film and TV props, parts, and display units.
Resale fit
- Export lots for regions where 2G GSM service is still live and a simple tested handset sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working LG feature phones from the 2000s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct handsets in a known color.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
