Description
Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini I435 16 GB 4G LTE Verizon Pageplus & GSM, Factory Refurbished, unlocked
Factory Refurbished under its -RB SKU, this is the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini I435 for Verizon and Page Plus with GSM roaming, 16 GB, unlocked; the source listing calls the color black. A reconditioned compact Samsung at this tier goes to Wi-Fi fleet buyers and to resellers supplying GSM and UMTS markets abroad.
The SCH-I435 is Verizon's late-2013 Galaxy S4 Mini: a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED screen, a 1.7 GHz dual-core Snapdragon 400, 1.5 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage with a microSD slot, an 8 MP camera, and a removable 1,900 mAh battery in a pocketable body. It shipped with Android 4.2.2 and was updated to KitKat. The radio set covers Verizon LTE and CDMA plus GSM and UMTS for roaming, and Verizon's 4G phones left the factory SIM-unlocked. TG Wireless sells the I435 to exporters who need a compact Samsung for GSM markets, to parts buyers, and to institutional accounts that run the model on Wi-Fi.

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
Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Verizon retired its CDMA network on December 31, 2022 and now requires VoLTE for voice, which this 2013 model does not carry on Verizon's network, so treat Verizon and Page Plus activation as not available unless the carrier confirms otherwise. The GSM and UMTS radios still register on 2G and 3G networks abroad where those services are live, which is the realistic use along with Wi-Fi deployment and parts. US 3G closed in 2022.
Resale fit
- Export to GSM and UMTS markets where a compact Samsung with a removable battery still has retail demand.
- Repair shops and parts buyers needing I435 displays, batteries, and housings.
- Institutional and kiosk buyers running a small Android on Wi-Fi only.
