Samsung SGH-T401G TracFone QWERTY, Factory Refurbished
Factory Refurbished Samsung T401G Tracfone handsets with the MP3 player, the camera listed as 1-megapixel (1.3 MP per the spec text), the vivid color display, and the slide-out QWERTY keyboard, reconditioned to close-to-new working order. Exporters who need a cheap QWERTY messaging phone for 2G markets, and prop buyers who want a period prepaid handset, are the fit.
Samsung's SGH-T401G is a 2009 prepaid candybar sold through TracFone and Net10 with a side-sliding full QWERTY keyboard, a feature that was rare at its price. It has a color LCD, a 1.3 MP camera with video capture and 2x digital zoom, an MP3 player that uses a microSD card up to 2 GB, Bluetooth, an HTML browser, T9 input, and a speakerphone, on a 2G GSM radio.
TG Wireless sells the T401G to exporters who want a QWERTY feature phone for 2G GSM markets, to collector and prop buyers, and to parts dealers; the TracFone service it was built for no longer runs on 2G.

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 SGH-T401G is a 2G GSM phone with GPRS or EDGE data and no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile switched off its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so this handset no longer gets voice or data service on any US network. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM service, collectors, props, and parts. TracFone-branded units may be locked to that prepaid brand; confirm with the account manager.
Resale fit
- Export lots for regions where 2G GSM service is still live and a simple tested handset sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working T-Mobile feature phones from the late 2000s.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
