Nokia 5300 Black, A Grade carrier return, GSM unlocked
Black Nokia 5300 XpressMusic sliders, GSM unlocked, sourced as carrier returns and graded A-stock by TG on receipt: tested, lightly used, with the original battery, battery door, charger, and user guide. Collector shops and prop houses like the black 5300 as the definitive XpressMusic slider, and exporters take it for 2G markets at a low ticket.
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic is a 2006 Series 40 slider that sold in very large numbers as an entry music phone. It pairs a 2-inch QVGA display with dedicated music keys, a 1.3 MP camera with video capture, stereo Bluetooth, FM radio, a microSD slot, speakerphone, and push-to-talk support, all in a compact slide-out keypad body. The listing describes the GSM unlocked world-phone version. TG Wireless supplies these as carrier-return units graded A-stock, with the original battery, battery door, charger, and user guide, for exporters, collector shops, and prop buyers.

Condition: A Grade
A Grade (A-Stock) units are lightly used, fully tested, and working, and may show very minor nicks or scratches. Units are supplied as graded; ask your account manager about packaging (original box, accessories, or handset only) when you request a quote.
Network and compatibility
The Nokia 5300 XpressMusic is a 2G GSM handset with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. US carriers shut down 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US service 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, props, parts, and display units. The GSM band set of this lot is not stated; confirm with your account manager for export.
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 Nokia phones from the 2000s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct handsets.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
