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 Flight A796 is a 2G GSM and 3G UMTS phone with no LTE and no VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US carrier service today. Its 850/1900 MHz UMTS bands were the AT&T pairing. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Abroad it registers on live GSM and UMTS networks.
Resale fit
- Export lots for markets with live GSM and 850/1900 MHz UMTS service.
- Collectors of Samsung QWERTY sliders.
- Prop and display units.
