Description
Samsung Galaxy S III I535 Blue 4G LTE, Factory Refurbished, Verizon / PagePlus
Offered here is the Samsung Galaxy S III I535 in Blue, the Verizon / PagePlus 4G LTE Galaxy S III, factory refurbished: reconditioned to close-to-new working order, with each unit tested and graded by TG. Blue refurbished units suit marketplace sellers and collector shops that want the launch color in reliable working order, and exporters serving markets with live UMTS or compatible LTE.
The Samsung Galaxy S III I535 is Verizon's 2012 version of the Galaxy S III, the model that put Samsung ahead of every other Android maker that year. It has a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display, a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor with 2 GB of RAM, an 8 MP camera, NFC for S Beam, Wi-Fi Direct, and a removable battery, running Verizon 4G LTE with CDMA fallback. The I535 also works on PagePlus and other Verizon-network resellers.
TG Wireless offers the I535 as carrier returns and factory refurbished stock to exporters, collector and prop buyers, repair shops that need Galaxy S III parts, and Wi-Fi only users; it is not a phone for US activations today.

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 I535 is a Verizon LTE phone with CDMA fallback and no VoLTE. Verizon retired CDMA on December 31, 2022 and now requires VoLTE for calls, so the I535 no longer gets voice service on Verizon or PagePlus, and the other US carriers also require VoLTE. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets where UMTS or compatible LTE is live, Wi-Fi only operation, collectors, props, and parts.
Resale fit
- Export to markets where UMTS or compatible LTE service remains live and a tested 4.8-inch Samsung sells at an entry price.
- Parts and donor units for Galaxy S III repairs, with the HD Super AMOLED panel the main draw.
- Collector shops, enthusiasts, and prop houses that want the Verizon Galaxy S III in black, blue, or white.
- Wi-Fi only use for media players, testing devices, and display demos.
