Samsung Ch@t 222 Black Dual-SIM, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Black is the color of this Samsung Ch@t 222 Dual-sim QWERTY phone, sold Factory Refurbished and GSM unlocked per the source listing. Exporters serving 2G dual-SIM markets choose the refurbished grade for budget-driven counters where a tested, reconditioned keyboard phone sells on price rather than on sealed packaging.
The Samsung Ch@t 222, model GT-E2222, is a 2011 dual-SIM messaging phone with a full QWERTY keyboard and Samsung's DUOS dual-standby system, so two numbers stay live at once. It ships with Facebook, Twitter, push instant messaging, and email clients for a 2G GSM phone, plus a music player, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, and access to Samsung Apps for games and ringtones.
TG Wireless sells the Ch@t 222 to exporters supplying markets where 2G GSM is still live and dual-SIM QWERTY phones remain a counter staple, to institutional buyers who want a simple keyboard phone for staff messaging over GSM abroad, and to collectors and prop houses looking for a compact QWERTY candy-bar.

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 Ch@t 222 is a 2G GSM-only phone with no 3G or LTE, so it has no service on US carriers after T-Mobile's GSM shutdown on August 3, 2026, and it never worked on CDMA networks. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Its realistic uses are export to 2G GSM markets, where dual-SIM QWERTY phones still sell, plus collectors, props, and offline use as a music player.
Resale fit
- Export lots for 2G GSM markets in Africa, South Asia, and Latin America.
- Collectors and prop buyers wanting a dual-SIM QWERTY Samsung.
- Parts and display units for repair shops.
