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 Galaxy S8 Plus G955U is a 4G LTE phone with VoLTE and HD Voice, so the US 2G and 3G retirements do not affect its calling or data. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The G955U is the US variant with the LTE bands and CDMA support used by AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon, and unlocked units activate on those networks and their prepaid brands. It takes a nano-SIM. Confirm carrier acceptance before volume activations, since carriers are retiring 2017-era devices.
Resale fit
- Prepaid and MVNO dealers offering a US-variant Samsung flagship with a 6.2-inch screen and headphone jack at a used price.
- Insurance and trade-in replacement programs that need a steady graded Galaxy S model.
- Marketplace and storefront resale of tested S8 Plus units by cosmetic grade.
- Repair shops and refurbishers sourcing G955U units for parts matching and warranty resale.
