Description
Motorola Dext / Cliq, New, T-Mobile / Simplemobile
Brand new and branded for T-Mobile / Simplemobile, this Motorola Dext / Cliq is the 2009 MOTOBLUR slider with the 3.1-inch screen, full QWERTY keyboard, and 5 MP camera; unlock status and color are not stated, so confirm with your account manager. Collectors wanting a sealed first Motorola Android and prop houses are the realistic buyers.
The Motorola Cliq, sold as the Dext outside the US, was Motorola's first Android phone in late 2009 and the first with the MOTOBLUR overlay that streams Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and e-mail to the home screen and backs up contacts online. It pairs a 3.1-inch touchscreen with a side-sliding full QWERTY keyboard, a 5 MP camera with video, GPS with Google Maps, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth, a 2 GB microSD card, up to 6 hours of talk time, quad-band GSM, and 3G on T-Mobile's AWS 1700/2100 band.
This listing is the new, T-Mobile / Simplemobile branded unit. Collectors, prop houses, and display buyers take it from TG Wireless; with no LTE it has no US service.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
The Dext / Cliq is a 2G GSM and 3G UMTS phone built for T-Mobile's AWS 1700/2100 band; the "4G" in the source heading is not accurate, as the model has no LTE and no VoLTE. With US 3G retired in 2022 and T-Mobile 2G GSM closed on August 3, 2026, it gets no voice or data service on US carriers. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Export is realistic only where UMTS runs on the AWS band or 2G GSM remains live; the main channels are collectors of the first Motorola Android, prop houses, and parts.
Resale fit
- Collectors of first-generation Motorola Androids and MOTOBLUR devices.
- Film, TV, and photo prop houses that need 2009-era slider phones.
- Parts suppliers and display buyers.
- Export to GSM/UMTS markets on the AWS band set where service remains live.
