Samsung Galaxy S III L710 White 4G LTE Sprint, Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units of the white Samsung Galaxy S III L710, the Sprint CDMA and 4G LTE variant; the old heading described them as clean-ESN stock. Refurbished means tested, cleaned, and repackaged to work like new, which makes these the tidy choice for collectors and display buyers. Sprint's networks are gone, so the phone is a Wi-Fi, props, or parts item in the US.
The Galaxy S III SPH-L710 is Sprint's 2012 version of Samsung's third Galaxy S flagship: a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display at 1280 x 720, a 1.5 GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 with 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage with microSD expansion, an 8 MP camera with 1080p video, a 1.9 MP front camera, NFC with S Beam, and CDMA plus Sprint 4G LTE. It shipped on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and was updated to Android 4.4 KitKat.
TG Wireless offers factory refurbished L710 units to collectors, prop houses, and parts buyers; Sprint's CDMA and LTE networks have been shut down following the T-Mobile merger, so the phone gets no US cellular service 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 L710 is a Sprint CDMA phone with 4G LTE for data only and no VoLTE. Sprint's CDMA network was shut down in 2022 after the T-Mobile merger, the legacy Sprint LTE network has also been retired, and all three US national carriers closed 3G in 2022, so this phone cannot activate on any US carrier today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collectors, film and TV props, Wi-Fi-only use, and parts stock.
Resale fit
- Collectors and prop houses that want the Sprint Galaxy S III in white.
- Wi-Fi-only use as media players, kiosks, or app test devices.
- Parts and repair stock for displays, batteries, and housings.
