Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 F946U 512GB in Blue — Wholesale C/D Stock - Not Fully Functional
Supplied for repair shops, refurbishment lines, and parts-recovery programs, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 is Samsung's August 2023 book-style foldable: a 7.6-inch Foldable Dynamic AMOLED 2X main screen and a 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X cover screen, both at 120Hz, on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy with 12GB of RAM. The rear camera system pairs a 50MP wide sensor with a 10MP 3x telephoto and a 12MP ultra-wide, with a 10MP cover-screen camera and a 4MP under-display camera. A 4,400mAh battery supports 25W wired and 15W wireless charging, the Armor Aluminum frame carries an IPX8 water-resistance rating (no dust rating), and S Pen Fold Edition input is supported (not built in). It launched on Android 13, and Samsung commits to four generations of OS upgrades and five years of security updates. Unfolded it measures 154.9 x 129.9 x 6.1 mm and weighs 253 g. This lot is the SM-F946U (US carrier model) in the 512GB 5G configuration, Blue, carrier-unlocked and graded C/D Stock - Not Fully Functional.
For refurbishers, a manufacturer support runway of 5 years from the August 2023 launch matters at resale: a restored unit carries the remaining update window into the secondary market. As a foldable, each unit carries separately recoverable main-screen, cover-screen, hinge, and camera assemblies for repair and parts programs. Confirming the fault mix at quotation lets refurbishers estimate restoration yield in advance.
