Samsung Impression A877 3G Qwerty Touchscreen AT&T GSM Unlocked, Carrier Returns
Returned through a carrier channel and tested and graded by TG on receipt, this Samsung Impression A877 is the 3G QWERTY touchscreen slider for AT&T, GSM unlocked; no color is stated. Prop houses and export dealers take carrier-return Impressions when they want working units and cosmetics are secondary.
The Samsung Impression, model SGH-A877, is a 2009 AT&T messaging phone and the first US handset with an AMOLED screen: a 3.2-inch 240 x 400 touchscreen paired with a slide-out four-row QWERTY keyboard, a 3 MP camera with video capture, TouchWiz widgets, Bluetooth stereo, GPS with AT&T Navigator, a music player, and a microSD slot rated to 16 GB. It runs on quad-band GSM and AT&T's 850/1900 MHz 3G bands.
TG Wireless offers the A877 in carrier-return and factory-refurbished lots to collectors and prop houses that want a 2009 AT&T slider, to exporters serving markets with live 2G or 3G service, and to parts and display buyers.

Condition: Carrier Returns
Carrier return units come back through a carrier channel and are tested and graded by TG on receipt. Expect a mix of open-box and lightly handled units; cosmetics and packaging are confirmed per lot by your account manager.
Network and compatibility
The SGH-A877 is a 2G GSM and 3G UMTS feature phone with no LTE. US 3G networks closed in 2022 and T-Mobile's 2G GSM network closed on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US carrier service today. The lots here are sold GSM unlocked, so the phone still registers on live GSM or UMTS networks abroad; see the network status line in the table. Wi-Fi is not fitted, so there is no offline data use.
Resale fit
- Collectors and prop houses that want the first AMOLED phone sold in the US.
- Export dealers in markets where 2G or 3G GSM service is still live.
- Parts and display buyers who need complete A877 units.
