Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The T659 is a 2G GSM and 3G UMTS phone with no LTE. All three US national carriers retired 3G in 2022, including T-Mobile's AWS 1700/2100 network, and T-Mobile closed 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so this phone gets no US service today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The units are T-Mobile branded. Realistic uses are export to markets with live GSM or UMTS service, collectors, props, and display stock.
Resale fit
- Collector shops and enthusiasts who want T-Mobile Samsung sliders from the 3G era.
- Film and TV prop houses that need period-correct 2010 carrier-branded phones.
- Export to markets where quad-band GSM or UMTS 2100 service is still live.
