kumenglishAre these sentences correct?

They are grammatical, but two of them are ridiculous. I have never bought anything from a mobile phone.

kumenglishMobile phones are selling to customers without headphone.

Can a mobile phone be a salesman? Do you buy things from mobile phones?

Here you said that these mobile phones did not wear a headphone when they sold things to customers.

kumenglishA few years ago, Mobile phones had been selling with the headphone.

Now you say that these mobile phone salesmen together with their headphones used to be selling things to customers.

kumenglishA few years ago, mobile phones were sold with a ~~the~~ headphone.

As corrected, that one makes sense.

It is passive voice. When people bought a mobile phone, there was a headphone in the package.

Better:

Mobile phones used to be sold with a headphone.
