Samsung Solstice A887 3G Touchscreen, Factory Refurbished, AT&T branded, GSM unlocked
Factory refurbished Samsung Solstice A887 3G, AT&T's 3-inch touchscreen feature phone, GSM unlocked and described as black in the original listing, reconditioned to close-to-new working order and tested. Refurbished Solstice units are what exporters order when prepaid retailers in live-3G markets want a presentable touchscreen at the lowest ticket.
AT&T's Samsung Solstice SGH-A887 arrived in 2009 as a low-cost full-touch phone: a 3-inch 240 x 400 touchscreen with a landscape virtual QWERTY keyboard, TouchWiz widgets for social networks, a 2-megapixel camera with video, Bluetooth, an HTML browser, microSD expansion to 16 GB and 3G HSDPA data with AT&T Video Share. It gave AT&T prepaid and family-plan customers a touchscreen without a smartphone data plan.
TG Wireless offers this factory refurbished Solstice to exporters working live 2G and 3G GSM markets and to collectors and prop houses. The old description identifies the unit as black and GSM unlocked; US carriers no longer serve its radios.

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 Solstice A887 is a 3G GSM phone with no LTE and no VoLTE. All US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile switched off its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so it gets no service on any US carrier in any lock state. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to countries with live GSM and UMTS networks, Wi-Fi or offline use where supported, collectors, props, and parts.
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.
