Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9152 8 GB White, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
White and factory refurbished, this Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 I9152 is the 8 GB dual-SIM unit, GSM unlocked, listed as 4G but a 3G HSPA+ phone with no LTE. White Mega units suit exporters shipping to markets where 3G service continues and set decorators who need a clean large-screen Samsung of the period.
The Galaxy Mega 5.8, model GT-I9152, is Samsung's 2013 dual-SIM phablet: a 5.8-inch qHD TFT display, a 1.4 GHz dual-core processor with 1.5 GB of RAM, 8 GB of storage with a microSDXC slot up to 64 GB, an 8 MP rear and 1.9 MP front camera, NFC, and a removable 2,600 mAh battery on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. It is a 2G GSM and 3G HSPA+ phone; the '4G' in the name refers to HSPA+ marketing, not LTE.
TG Wireless lists factory refurbished units for exporters serving markets where 3G service is still live, for collectors of early big-screen Samsungs, and for prop, display, and parts buyers.

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 GT-I9152 is a 2G GSM and 3G HSPA+ dual-SIM phone with no LTE and no VoLTE, and the source calls it GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. It gets no voice or data service on any US carrier: US 3G was retired in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down 2G GSM on August 3, 2026. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM and UMTS networks remain live, collectors, film and TV props, display units, parts, and Wi-Fi-only use within the limits of a 2013 device.
Resale fit
- Export to African, South Asian, and Latin American markets where 2G and 3G GSM service continues and a 5.8-inch dual-SIM Samsung still has buyers.
- Collectors, prop houses, and set decorators who need a period-correct 2013 Samsung phablet.
- Parts, display, and Wi-Fi-only buyers who want a large-screen Android with a removable battery at low cost.
