Maxwest Nitro 5.5 4G 850/1700/1900 4 GB White, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory refurbished and GSM unlocked, this White Maxwest Nitro 5.5 4G 850/1700/1900 has been reconditioned to working order and carries 4 GB of storage, dual SIM slots, and Android 4.4 on a 5.5-inch screen. It fits exporters and refurbishers who sell tested budget Androids into live-3G markets where the price gap to new stock matters.
The Maxwest Nitro 5.5 is an entry-level Android smartphone from Maxwest, a US-based brand of unlocked GSM phones founded in 2001 that sells largely through distributors into Latin America and the Caribbean. It carries a 5.5-inch qHD display, a dual-core processor, 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of storage with microSD expansion up to 32 GB, an 8 MP rear camera, a 2 MP front camera, and two SIM slots, running Android 4.4 KitKat with HSPA+ data on 850/1700/1900 MHz.
Exporters and prepaid distributors buy the Nitro 5.5 from TG Wireless as a boxed, color-assorted, dual-SIM Android for markets where GSM and UMTS service is still live, and as a low-cost Wi-Fi handset for institutional and promotional use.

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 Nitro 5.5 is a GSM phone whose "4G" label means HSPA+ data on 850/1700/1900 MHz; it has no LTE radio and no VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US voice or data service today. It is sold GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Realistic markets are Latin America, the Caribbean, and Africa, where GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS 850/1900 service remains live, plus Wi-Fi-only use.
Resale fit
- Export to Latin American and Caribbean prepaid counters where a boxed dual-SIM Android at the lowest price tier still moves.
- Wi-Fi-only handsets for schools, clinics, and promotional programs that need a cheap Android screen without a carrier plan.
- Parts and display stock for repair shops that service Maxwest handsets in export markets.
