Samsung Intensity U450 Black *Telus Only* Cell Phones, Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished and reconditioned to close-to-new working order, this Samsung Intensity U450 in black is the Telus-only CDMA QWERTY slider; it carries Telus firmware and is not a Verizon unit. Collectors of Canadian-market handsets and prop houses that need a period slider with working keyboard and screen take this lot.
The Samsung Intensity, model SCH-U450, is a 2009 CDMA messaging phone sold in the US by Verizon and in Canada by Telus Mobility; this listing covers the Telus version. It has a 2.1-inch 176 x 220 display, a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard, a 1.3 MP camera, Bluetooth stereo, a music player with microSD expansion, an integrated GPS receiver, threaded messaging, and mobile e-mail and instant messaging clients. It is a basic feature phone, not a smartphone.
TG Wireless offers the Telus U450 in black, factory refurbished, to collectors and prop houses that want a Canadian-market slider, and to display and parts buyers who need complete units.

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 SCH-U450 is a CDMA-only feature phone with no LTE and no GSM radio. Telus shut down its CDMA network in 2017, and US CDMA networks closed in 2022, so it gets no carrier service in Canada or the US today; the Telus firmware would not have activated on US carriers even when they ran CDMA. See the network status line in the table. It has no Wi-Fi, so remaining use is offline, display, or parts.
Resale fit
- Collectors and prop houses dressing late-2000s Canadian scenes.
- Display and parts buyers who need complete U450 units.
- Offline use as a music player and camera.
