Samsung A167 Blue AT&T, A Grade carrier return, GSM unlocked
Samsung A167 Blue - AT&T GSM Unlocked Carrier Returns A-stock is the blue SGH-A167 returned through a carrier channel and graded A Grade by TG Wireless, lightly used and fully tested, GSM unlocked, 2G 850/1900 only with no 3G or LTE, supplied with original battery, battery door, and charger. Exporters who want working camera flips at a step below new take this lot for live GSM markets.
The Samsung SGH-A167 is AT&T's 2008 entry clamshell with a VGA camera: dual screens, a 65K-color 128 by 160 inner display and a 96 by 96 monochrome outer one for time, signal, and caller ID, plus speakerphone, instant and text messaging, MEdia Net browsing, organizer tools, about 2 MB of user memory, a 200-contact phonebook, and three hours of rated talk time. It runs on dual-band GSM 850/1900 with no 3G or LTE, which confines it to 2G export and collector channels today.
TG Wireless carries the A167 in new, carrier-return A-stock, and factory refurbished lots for exporters building basic camera-flip orders, and for prop houses and collectors.

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 A167 is a 2G GSM phone on 850 and 1900 MHz with no 3G or LTE, so there is no US carrier that will serve it: AT&T's 2G closed in 2017, the national 3G networks in 2022, and T-Mobile's 2G GSM on August 3, 2026. All three lots here are listed GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Unlocked, the phone still registers on live 850/1900 GSM networks abroad. Domestically it is a collector, prop, and parts item.
Resale fit
- Export to 850/1900 MHz GSM markets in Latin America and the Caribbean where a camera flip at a minimal ticket still moves.
- Prop houses and collector shops that want a blue late-2000s AT&T clamshell, new or working used.
- Parts and refurbishment stock for the Samsung A-series.
