Samsung A436 Red GSM Unlocked Cellphone, New
Red is the finish of this new, GSM unlocked Samsung A436 clamshell cellphone. The red A436 is the color prop departments and collectors ask for when a scene or a shelf needs a recognizable 2000s flip, and it gives exporters to live-GSM markets a second color beside black.
The Samsung A436 (SGH-A436) is a 2007-era GSM clamshell feature phone sold through AT&T, a basic talk-and-text handset with an integrated VGA camera, Bluetooth, speakerphone, vibrating alert, e-mail and MMS messaging, a 1,000-contact address book, polyphonic ringtones, and the usual calendar, calculator, and converter tools. It is a 2G phone with no 3G or LTE radio. Dealers buy the A436 from TG Wireless as a collector and prop phone, for export to markets where 2G GSM service is still live, and as a boxed basic handset for display and training uses where network service is not needed.

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. Per the source listing the box includes the original battery and battery door, charger, and user guide; confirm per lot with your account manager.
Network and compatibility
The A436 is a 2G GSM phone with no 3G or LTE. T-Mobile retired its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, after the 2022 3G shutdowns, so it will not get service on any US carrier today. It still works on 2G GSM networks abroad where they remain live, and offline as a display or prop unit. Both listings are GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Confirm the GSM band set against the destination market before ordering volume.
Resale fit
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct flip phones in black and red.
- Collectors and novelty resellers who buy late-2000s Samsung flips by color.
- Export to markets where 2G GSM service is still live.
