Samsung Galaxy S8 SM-G950U 64 GB Maple Gold 4G LTE, Factory Refurbished, unlocked
Maple Gold Samsung Galaxy S8 G950U, 64 GB, 4G LTE, Unlocked, Factory Refurbished: reconditioned to close-to-new working order and tested before it ships, with the US multi-carrier radio set. Prepaid dealers who serve customers on more than one network buy the unlocked G950U so one SKU covers every activation, and gold is the color that moves after black.
The SM-G950U is the US Galaxy S8 of 2017, the Snapdragon 835 build sold by every US carrier and as a factory-unlocked unit: a 5.8-inch Quad HD+ curved Infinity Display, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of storage plus microSD, the 12 MP Dual Pixel camera with optical stabilization, IP68 sealing, iris and fingerprint security, a 3,000 mAh battery, and the full set of US LTE bands including Verizon's, updated through Android 9. Because the G950U carries VoLTE for all three national carriers, it remains one of the most flexible legacy Samsungs. TG Wireless sells the refurbished Maple Gold unit to prepaid and MVNO dealers on any US network, marketplace resellers, and replacement pools.

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 multi-carrier Galaxy S8 with LTE and VoLTE for AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon, so the 2022 3G retirements and T-Mobile's 2G shutdown on August 3, 2026 do not affect it; carriers still decide whether a 2017 model is accepted for new activations, so confirm with the carrier. The name lists this unit as unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Its US band set also covers many LTE markets in the Americas.
Resale fit
- Prepaid and MVNO dealers on any US network who want one S8 SKU that activates across carriers.
- Marketplace resellers who want a tested unlocked S8 in gold.
- Insurance and warranty replacement pools that stock the US unlocked variant.
