Samsung DoubleTime I857 3G WI-FI 3.2-megapixel Dual-touchscreen Qwerty Keyboard Android, New, AT&T GSM Unlocked
Brand new, the Samsung DoubleTime I857 is the 2011 AT&T Android flip with two 3.2-inch touchscreens, a full QWERTY keyboard, Wi-Fi, 3G, and a 3.2 megapixel camera, supplied as an AT&T unit that is GSM unlocked. Collector shops and prop buyers want it for the form factor, and export dealers in live GSM markets take it as a new, boxed QWERTY Android; it has no US carrier service today.
The Samsung DoubleTime I857 is a 2011 AT&T Android flip phone with an unusual layout: a 3.2-inch touchscreen on the outside, and a second 3.2-inch touchscreen plus a full QWERTY keyboard inside when it is flipped open, with the hinge doubling as a stand. It runs Android 2.2 Froyo on an 800 MHz processor with a 3.2 MP camera, 260 MB of internal memory plus a 2 GB microSD card, Wi-Fi n, Bluetooth 3.0, GPS, and 3G HSPA on AT&T's bands.
TG Wireless supplies the DoubleTime new in box to collector and oddity-phone shops, prop houses that want a distinctive 2011 AT&T Android, and export dealers in GSM markets. It is not a US-service phone today.

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.
Network and compatibility
The DoubleTime is a 2G GSM and 3G HSPA phone with no LTE radio. AT&T and the other US carriers retired 3G in 2022, and T-Mobile closed the last US 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so this phone gets no US voice or data service today. It is listed as an AT&T unit that is GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM or UMTS service, collectors and oddity-phone shops, props, display units, parts, and Wi-Fi use with sideloaded apps.
Resale fit
- Collector and oddity-phone shops stocking unusual form factors; the dual-screen flip is one of the few Android clamshells of its era.
- Film, TV, and photo productions that need a period-correct 2011 AT&T Android handset.
- Export dealers in markets with live 2G GSM or 3G 2100 service where an unlocked QWERTY Android still sells.
- Parts and display donors for repair benches.
