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 G950U is the US Galaxy S8 build, with VoLTE and the LTE radios for the US carriers; lock state is per listing, so see the network status line in the table. Unlocked units register on the GSM carriers and, where the firmware allows, on Verizon's LTE network. US voice now runs on VoLTE, since 3G closed in 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G GSM ended on August 3, 2026, and the S8 supports it; still confirm acceptance with the carrier before buying for activations. Abroad, use depends on band match.
Resale fit
- Prepaid and MVNO counters that want a recognized Samsung flagship with VoLTE at a used price.
- Insurance replacement and trade-in programs that need a steady supply of one graded US model.
- Marketplace and storefront resale of tested units sorted by the three listed colors.
- Repair shops stocking S8 displays, back glass, and batteries.
