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 Galaxy C5 is a 4G LTE phone, so it is not retired by the 2022 US 3G shutdowns or T-Mobile's 2G closure on August 3, 2026, but it is the China version: its LTE bands (1/3/7/8/38/39/40/41) do not include the main US bands, so expect no usable US LTE and treat domestic service as unavailable. It fits Chinese, Southeast Asian, and some European and Middle Eastern networks. Sold factory unlocked in its home market with dual nano-SIM standby. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table.
Resale fit
- Export to Asia, the Middle East, and parts of Europe where the C5000 band set fits local LTE.
- Dual-SIM dealers whose customers want a thin metal Samsung with 4 GB of RAM.
- Collectors of China-market Galaxy C series phones.
