Description
Nokia 6101, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory Refurbished Nokia 6101 flip phone, GSM unlocked, reconditioned to close-to-new working order and supplied with the original battery, battery door, charger, user guide, and Nokia box as the listing states. Collector shops and prop houses looking for a complete, boxed Nokia clamshell from 2005 are the natural buyers, alongside exporters serving live 2G GSM markets.
The Nokia 6101 is a 2005 clamshell feature phone, the T-Mobile USA twin of the Nokia 6102 sold by Cingular. It has a color internal display and a color external display, a camera with video capture, an FM radio, a speakerphone, a web browser, instant messaging clients, and EDGE data on tri-band GSM 850/1800/1900. It was one of the few Nokia flip phones to reach US carriers in volume.
TG Wireless sells the 6101 to collectors and prop houses that want a mid-2000s Nokia flip, to exporters serving markets where 2G GSM is still live, and to parts buyers; it is not an activation phone in the US today.

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 Nokia 6101 is a 2G GSM phone with EDGE data and no 3G or LTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so the 6101 gets no US service today. The unit here is GSM unlocked, so it still works on live 2G GSM networks abroad; see the network status line in the table. Otherwise it serves collectors, prop departments, and parts buyers. No SIM is included.
Resale fit
- Collector shops and prop suppliers that want a working mid-2000s Nokia flip phone.
