Nokia 5130 XpressMusic T-Mobile (Blue per SKU), Factory Refurbished, T-Mobile
This Nokia 5130 XpressMusic is the T-Mobile version in the blue finish indicated by its SKU (T-Mobile's Pearl White Aqua), Factory Refurbished. Reconditioned units of the aqua colorway are the less common find, so they go to collectors of XpressMusic-era Nokias, prop buyers, and exporters to GSM markets; the 2G radio has no US service.
The Nokia 5130 XpressMusic is a 2009 Series 40 music phone released for T-Mobile US: a candybar with dedicated music keys down the side, a 2-inch 240 x 320 screen, a 2 MP camera with video capture, stereo Bluetooth, an FM radio, a 3.5 mm jack, loud stereo speakers, a microSD slot with a card included, and a battery rated at six hours of talk time, twelve days of standby, and twenty hours of music. T-Mobile sold it in Black Red and Pearl White Aqua. It is a quad-band GSM/EDGE phone with no 3G.
Collector shops, exporters, and prop buyers take the 5130 from TG Wireless in new and Factory Refurbished tiers; its 2G radio has no US service.

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 5130 XpressMusic is a 2G GSM/EDGE-only phone with no 3G or LTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so this phone gets no US cellular service. T-Mobile branding and lock are per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM networks still run, collector and retro-phone resale, props, and offline use as a music player and FM radio.
Resale fit
- Collector and retro-phone shops stocking XpressMusic-era Nokias.
- Export to GSM markets where 2G service continues.
- Film, TV, and display props; offline music-player use.
