Samsung SGH-T629 Quad-band Slider, Carrier Returns, GSM unlocked
Carrier-return Samsung Sgh-t629, the quad-band GSM unlocked slider with a 1.3 MP camera and stereo Bluetooth, tested and graded by TG when it arrives. Listed under the second T629 entry, it suits collectors who want a working T-Mobile-era slider and exporters filling mixed 2G lots for markets where GSM service remains live.
The Samsung SGH-T629 was T-Mobile's 2006 mid-range slider, an update of the T809 that added stereo Bluetooth, voice dialing and new styling while keeping the 1.3-megapixel camera, 262K-color screen, MP3 player, memory card slot and quad-band GSM with EDGE data. The slim silver body made it one of the better-looking feature phones of its year.
TG Wireless offers the T629 as carrier returns, handsets that came back through a carrier channel and were tested and graded on receipt. Exporters working live-2G GSM markets, collectors and prop houses take them; there is no US network left for a 2G-only phone.

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-T629 is a 2G GSM phone with no 3G, LTE or VoLTE. US 3G was retired in 2022 and T-Mobile, the last US 2G GSM network, shut it down on August 3, 2026, so it gets no service on any US carrier whatever its lock state. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. It remains useful for export to markets with live 2G GSM networks, for collectors and prop houses, and as parts or display units.
Resale fit
- Exporters supplying markets in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia where 2G or 3G GSM service is still live.
- Collectors and prop houses that need period-correct Samsung handsets.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and retail fixtures.
