Samsung Galaxy S6 Active G890A Grey 4G LTE, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Grey is the fleet finish, and this Galaxy S6 Active G890A 4G LTE unit is Factory Refurbished and GSM unlocked. Field-service and warehouse accounts that issue rugged phones in quantity take grey because it is neutral and easy to match on reorders, and the 3,500 mAh battery covers a full shift.
The Galaxy S6 Active SM-G890A is AT&T's 2015 rugged version of the Galaxy S6. It keeps the 5.1-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED screen, the 64-bit Exynos 7420 octa-core, 3 GB of RAM, and the 16 MP camera, then adds an IP68 dustproof and water-resistant shell with physical navigation keys and an Activity key, a 3,500 mAh battery much larger than the standard S6's, and a shock-resistant frame. It gives up the fingerprint reader and the glass back. It launched on Android 5.0 and was updated to Nougat. TG Wireless sells the S6 Active to field-service fleets, outdoor-trade resellers, and exporters who want a tough Samsung with all-day battery life.

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 G890A is an AT&T LTE build with VoLTE; lock state is per listing, so see the network status line in the table. GSM unlocked units register on other GSM carriers whose LTE and UMTS bands match. For US activations, carriers now require VoLTE for voice, since 3G closed in 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G GSM ended on August 3, 2026, and AT&T activates only handsets on its approved device list, so confirm this 2015 model's standing with the carrier before buying for service. Abroad, use depends on band match.
Resale fit
- Field-service, construction, and warehouse fleets that want a rugged Android with a 3,500 mAh battery, on Wi-Fi or an accepting carrier.
- Outdoor and sporting-goods resellers who stock ruggedized used phones.
- Export to GSM markets where an IP68 Samsung with a Quad HD screen sells above the standard S6.
- Repair shops needing Active-specific housings and key assemblies.
