Nokia 5 16 GB Black, New, lock state not stated
Listed here is the Nokia 5 in black with 16 GB of storage and 2 GB of RAM, a new unit built on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 430. The listing does not state a lock status, so confirm the regional variant with your account manager before planning activations. Prepaid dealers and exporters take this as a low-ticket aluminum Android with a microSD slot for the base storage.
The Nokia 5 was HMD Global's 2017 entry into mid-range Android: a 5.2-inch 720p IPS screen set into a one-piece machined aluminum body, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 octa-core, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage with a microSD slot, a 13 MP rear camera, an 8 MP front camera, and a 3,000 mAh battery. It shipped on Android 7.1.1 Nougat and took updates through Android 9. Dealers buy the Nokia 5 from TG Wireless as a sturdy, no-frills unlocked LTE handset for prepaid counters, export lots, and corporate fleets that want a metal phone with a near-stock Android build.

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 5 is a 4G LTE phone, so the 2022 US 3G shutdown and the August 2026 T-Mobile 2G retirement do not take it off the air by themselves. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. VoLTE support and carrier acceptance depend on the exact variant and its software, so confirm with the carrier before committing to volume. The supplied spec sheet is the Indian dual-SIM model; check the regional variant and LTE bands against the target network.
Resale fit
- Prepaid and MVNO counters that need a low-ticket unlocked Android with a clean software build.
- Export lots for Latin America, Africa, and South Asia where unlocked Nokia Android phones sell on brand recognition.
- Marketplace and storefront resale of sealed units at a step below current-generation pricing.
- Corporate and institutional buyers who need plain, unbranded handsets for field staff or loaners.
