Vintage Samsung E1190 GSM Flip Phone for Collectors

PLEASE NOTE: Vintage phones are shipped within 10 business days after payment. All units are in stock and individually prepared by my team — each one is carefully tested and set up to ensure everything runs smoothly, just for you.

Many of the vintage phones I sell were originally equipped with wireless features such as Wi-Fi and mobile data (3G). However, not all models include these functions — please refer to each listing to confirm availability.

For those devices that do offer wireless connectivity, it’s important to understand that they rely on legacy technologies, which may not be fully compatible with modern infrastructure.

• Wi-Fi: These devices typically use the older 802.11b/g standard. Most modern routers prioritize newer Wi-Fi protocols (such as 802.11n/ac/ax), and may not support b/g by default. In some cases, you may need to adjust your router settings or use a compatible older router to establish a connection.
• Mobile Data (3G): Likewise, many mobile network providers around the world have started decommissioning 3G bands, especially in regions where 4G and 5G are now the norm. As a result, mobile internet may not work even with a valid SIM card, depending on your country and carrier.

These limitations are inherent to the age of the technology and do not indicate a defect in the device. If you plan to use Wi-Fi or mobile data, we recommend checking the compatibility of your local network environment beforehand.

When browsing my refurbished vintage phones, you’ll also often find two main bundle options: the Simple Set and the Full Set.

The Simple Set is tailored for those who want the essentials. It includes a phone, a battery, and a charger. This option is perfect if you’re looking for just the basics, providing a cost-effective solution with everything you need to start using your phone right away.

On the other hand, the Full Set offers a more complete package. Along with the phone, battery, and charger, it comes with a box that mirrors the original packaging. This option is ideal for collectors or anyone who prefers a more polished, comprehensive presentation.
