Sony Ericsson C903 White 3G 5 Megapixel, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
In White, the factory refurbished Sony Ericsson C903 is the less common finish of the 2009 Cyber-shot slider: 5 megapixel camera, built-in GPS, quad-band GSM with 3G HSDPA, reconditioned and GSM unlocked. White units draw collectors and display buyers who already have the black model, and they ship to GSM export markets where a compact camera phone still has a buyer.
The Sony Ericsson C903 is a 2009 Cyber-shot slider feature phone, the follow-up to the C902, styled after Sony's T-series compact cameras with a sliding lens cover on the back. It pairs a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with dual LED flash, face and smile detection, and geotagging from the built-in GPS, on a 2.4-inch 256K-color display with an accelerometer for auto-rotate. The radio is quad-band GSM with EDGE plus 3G HSDPA.
TG Wireless supplies the C903 to collector and retro-phone shops, prop houses that need a period-correct 2009 handset, and export dealers serving markets where 2G and 3G service is still live. It is not a US-service phone today, and the copy below says so plainly.

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 C903 is a 2G GSM and 3G UMTS/HSDPA phone with no LTE radio. All three US national carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile closed its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so the phone gets no voice or data service in the United States today. The units are sold GSM unlocked; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM or UMTS service is still live, collectors, film and TV props, display units, parts, and offline camera and music use.
Resale fit
- Export dealers in regions where 2G GSM or 3G UMTS voice service is still live and an unlocked Cyber-shot slider still sells.
- Collector and retro-phone shops stocking late-2000s Sony Ericsson camera phones in complete, tested condition.
- Film, TV, and photo productions that need a period-correct 2009 slider.
- Repair benches using complete units as parts or display donors.
