Samsung Flight A797 Silver 3G QWERTY Touchscreen, New, AT&T GSM unlocked
New in the box, this Samsung Flight A797 in Silver is the 3G Qwerty Touchscreen slider built for AT&T and sold GSM Unlocked. Sealed Flights go to collector dealers who want the complete retail package and to exporters serving UMTS markets where an unlocked touch-and-type Samsung still has counter appeal.
The Samsung Flight, model SGH-A797, is AT&T's 2009 messaging phone: a vertical slider that pairs a 2.8-inch touchscreen with widget shortcuts and a full QWERTY keyboard underneath. It runs Samsung's own feature-phone software with one-touch access to Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, instant messaging, and email, plus a camera with video, a music player, Bluetooth, GPS for AT&T Navigator, and 3G HSDPA data on AT&T's bands.
TG Wireless sells the Flight to collectors of touch-and-type feature phones, to prop houses that need a recognizable 2009 to 2011 AT&T handset, and to exporters who move unlocked GSM sliders into markets where UMTS 850/1900 coverage is still live.

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 Flight A797 is a 2G GSM and 3G HSDPA phone with no LTE, so it has no voice or data service on US carriers today: AT&T closed 3G in February 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Unlocked units still register on GSM and UMTS networks abroad where those remain live, and all units serve collectors, props, and parts.
Resale fit
- Collectors of touchscreen-plus-QWERTY feature phones from the AT&T lineup.
- Prop departments dressing 2009 to 2012 scenes.
- Export lots for GSM and UMTS markets that still sell slider phones.
