Samsung Galaxy Note 8 SM-N9500 256 GB/6 GB Dual SIM, A Grade, GSM unlocked
Graded A-Stock, this Samsung Note 8 (256GB/6GB) SM-N9500 dual SIM unit, listed under the entry ending in 1, is GSM unlocked, lightly used and fully tested, with only very minor cosmetic marks allowed. Color is not stated, so ask for the lot's mix. Resellers who want the 256 GB Note 8 at a used-grade ticket rather than sealed pricing are the buyers here.
Samsung's SM-N9500 is the Hong Kong and mainland China edition of the 2017 Galaxy Note 8, notable for a 256 GB storage option that US carriers never stocked. The hardware is otherwise the full Note 8 spec: 6.3-inch 2960 x 1440 Super AMOLED, Snapdragon 835, 6 GB of RAM, dual 12 MP stabilized rear cameras, IP68 sealing, USB-C, and the S Pen, with two SIM slots and a microSD slot in the tray. Units were manufactured in Vietnam per the source.
Dealers source the N9500 from TG Wireless for export orders and for marketplace listings where a dual-SIM, high-storage Note 8 commands more than a US single-SIM unit.

Condition: A Grade
A Grade (A-Stock) units are lightly used, fully tested, and working, and may show very minor nicks or scratches. Units are supplied as graded; ask your account manager about packaging (original box, accessories, or handset only) when you request a quote.
Network and compatibility
The SM-N9500 is a dual-SIM 4G LTE Note 8, so it is not affected by the US 2G and 3G retirements as hardware. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The source states it is not compatible with CDMA networks such as Verizon or Sprint. On AT&T and T-Mobile the band set and VoLTE provisioning for this Asian variant are the deciding factors, so confirm with the carrier before volume activations. On GSM networks in Asia, Latin America and Europe it is a mainstream flagship.
Resale fit
- Exporters supplying Asian and Latin American markets where the dual-SIM N9500 is the expected Note 8.
- Marketplace sellers who list the 256 GB storage tier as a premium option over 64 GB US units.
- Corporate and professional users who want dual lines and large local storage in one handset.
