Factory refurbished, this Samsung Convoy U640 is the 3G military grade extreme shock, water and dust resistance flip for Verizon and Pageplus, reconditioned to close-to-new working order. With Verizon's CDMA network retired, it sells to collectors and prop houses that want a rugged flip in working order and to parts buyers who need a complete U640.
The Samsung Convoy, model SCH-U640, is Verizon's 2009 rugged flip phone, built to military specifications for shock, water, and dust. It pairs a loud stereo speaker and extended battery life with Verizon's Push to Talk service over EV-DO Rev. A, a 2 MP camera with video capture, Bluetooth 2.1, GPS for VZ Navigator and Field Force Manager, and microSD expansion up to 16 GB. It was a field and job-site phone, not a media device.
TG Wireless sells the Convoy to collectors and prop houses that want a rugged Verizon flip, to parts and repair buyers, and to fleets that keep offline units for training or display.

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 Convoy U640 is a Verizon CDMA phone with EV-DO data and no LTE. Verizon retired its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, and Page Plus rode on that network, so this handset gets no US carrier service today and cannot be activated anywhere in the US. See the network status line in the table for the branding of each listing. Remaining uses are collectors, film and TV props, parts and display units, and offline or Wi-Fi use where the model supports it.
Resale fit
- Collectors and prop houses that want a military-spec Verizon flip phone.
- Parts and repair buyers who need SCH-U640 housings, keypads, and batteries.
- Training and display units for rugged-device demonstrations.
