Description
Samsung T319 Blue, A Grade carrier returns, GSM unlocked
Listed as Carrier Returns A-stock, this Blue Samsung T319 is a T-Mobile flip phone supplied GSM unlocked, graded A Grade on receipt: lightly used, fully tested, very minor marks at most. Blue flips from this era are exactly what collector shops and prop departments look for, and exporters to 2G GSM markets take the A Grade for a near-new look at a used price.
The Samsung T319 is a compact T-Mobile flip phone from the mid-2000s, the successor to the SGH-T309. It has a digital camera with 4x digital zoom, internal and external LCDs so caller ID shows with the phone closed, a built-in speakerphone, instant messaging through AOL, Yahoo, and ICQ, and a domestic tri-band GSM radio on 850/1800/1900 MHz.
TG Wireless moves the T319 to collector shops that stock colorful flip phones of the T-Mobile era, to prop and display buyers, and to exporters serving markets where 2G GSM voice is still live. With T-Mobile's 2G shutdown in August 2026 it has no remaining US network, so none of these buyers are activating it domestically.

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. The listing states the retail box with original battery, battery door, charger, and user guide.
Network and compatibility
The T319 is a 2G GSM-only phone, so it has no service on US carriers: T-Mobile, the carrier it was built for, shut down 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, and the phone has no 3G or LTE to fall back on. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The 850/1800/1900 MHz radio covers most 2G networks still running abroad, which is where exporters place it. Offline functions, the camera, and the external display work without a SIM.
Resale fit
- Collectors and enthusiasts of mid-2000s T-Mobile flip phones, with blue being a sought-after color.
- Export to 2G GSM markets where a boxed Samsung flip still sells as a basic voice phone.
- Film, TV, and theater props that need a period-correct camera flip that powers on.
