Samsung Galaxy Note II I605 16 GB White, Factory Refurbished, Verizon
White Samsung Note II I605 for Verizon and Page Plus, 16 GB, 4G LTE, sold factory refurbished: reconditioned to close-to-new working order and tested before shipping. The white body is the easier finish to keep looking clean, so repair shops that resell tested display units and exporters working GSM roaming markets are the typical buyers for this grade.
Verizon's Galaxy Note II, the SCH-I605, launched in late 2012 with LTE on Verizon's network and the same hardware as the GSM versions: a 5.5-inch 720p HD Super AMOLED panel, a quad-core 1.6 GHz Exynos, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage with microSD expansion, an 8 MP camera, NFC, and a removable 3,100 mAh battery under the back cover. The S Pen stored in the body drove note, sketch and hover-preview features that Samsung built the Note brand on.
Since Verizon shut down CDMA at the end of 2022, the I605 sells through TG Wireless to exporters using the GSM roaming slot, to parts and repair businesses, and to collectors who want a complete working unit in a specific color.

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 Note II SCH-I605 is a Verizon CDMA and LTE phone from 2012 without VoLTE. Verizon retired its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, and this model cannot place calls over LTE, so it no longer gets voice or text service on Verizon, Page Plus or any other US carrier. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The I605 does include a GSM SIM slot for roaming, so it can sometimes be used abroad on live 2G or 3G networks; otherwise it is a Wi-Fi, parts, prop or collector device.
Resale fit
- Export to GSM/UMTS markets where the I605's roaming SIM slot can still register on live networks.
- Repair shops and parts dealers that need Note II panels, boards, batteries and S Pens.
- Collectors, prop houses and display use where a working Note II with a 5.5-inch screen is enough.
