Nokia 2730 Black Compact 3G Phone Quadband, New, GSM unlocked
New black Nokia 2730 classic handsets, the compact 3G quadband candybar, GSM unlocked under the SKU NOKIA-2730-BLACK. Because it carries UMTS as well as quad-band GSM it is the Nokia feature phone exporters reach for in markets that have shut down 2G but kept 3G running, and collectors take sealed units of Nokia's first budget 3G phone.
The Nokia 2730 classic is a 2009 Series 40 candybar and Nokia's cheapest 3G phone of its day, a compact 109.6 x 46.9 x 14.4 mm handset with a 2-inch 240 x 320 TFT display in 256K colors, a 2 MP camera, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, stereo FM radio with RDS, 30 MB of memory with a microSD slot for cards up to 2 GB and a 1 GB card included, and Java MIDP 2.1 with Flash Lite for apps. Quad-band GSM covers 850/900/1800/1900 and the 3G radio adds UMTS data for browsing, email, and social apps. TG Wireless lists it in black, new and GSM unlocked, for exporters, collectors, and prop buyers.

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 Nokia 2730 classic is a GSM/UMTS phone with 3G data and no LTE or VoLTE. The listing gives its bands as quad-band GSM 850/900/1800/1900 plus 3G UMTS. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile ended 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it no longer registers on a US network. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Buyers move it to export markets where GSM or UMTS is still live, to collectors and prop houses, to parts dealers, and to Wi-Fi-only use where supported.
Resale fit
- Export to markets where GSM or UMTS service is still live and a Symbian-era phone sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working Nokia handsets from the late 2000s and early 2010s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct phones.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
