Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 Black 3G Wi-Fi 3-inch Touchscreen Android, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
The Factory Refurbished black Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 3G WI-FI 3-inch touchscreen Android, GSM unlocked, is the volume version of this model for exporters who sell low-cost compact Androids into live 3G markets and do not need new-in-box units. Developers and prop departments also take refurbished black X8s as inexpensive working Android devices.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 is the 2010 entry-level Xperia: a 3-inch capacitive touchscreen with the four-corner home screen, a 600 MHz Qualcomm processor, a 3.2-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, 3G, GPS with Google Maps, a microSD slot, and Android Market access, launched on Android 1.6 with an official update to 2.1. It was the small, cheap Android of its year and sold widely to prepaid customers. TG Wireless lists it in black and white, new and Factory Refurbished, for exporters who sell compact 3G Androids into live UMTS markets, and for collectors, developers, and prop buyers who want a pocket-size working Android from 2010.

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
These Xperia models carry 2G GSM and 3G UMTS/HSPA radios plus Wi-Fi, but no LTE and no VoLTE. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so the phone will not get US cellular service today. It still works as a Wi-Fi Android device, and it exports to markets where GSM or UMTS service remains live. Confirm the regional band set against the destination network before committing to volume.
Resale fit
- Export lots for markets with live UMTS service where a 3-inch entry Android still sells at a low ticket.
- Collector shops and enthusiasts stocking the first-generation small Xperias in both colors.
- Developers, testers, and prop buyers who need a compact working Android 1.6/2.1 device.
