Description
Motorola DROID X2 MB870 8 GB Verizon / Pageplus, A Grade, Carrier Returns
Sold as Verizon / Pageplus Carrier Returns A-stock, this Motorola DROID X2 MB870 is a tested unit from a carrier-return channel graded A Grade, meaning light use with at most very minor marks, with 8 GB of internal storage and the Verizon CDMA radio. Because Verizon's CDMA network closed at the end of 2022, the buyers are collectors, prop houses, and parts resellers rather than carriers. Ask your account manager about box and accessory contents for the lot.
The Motorola DROID X2, model MB870, is Verizon's 2011 sequel to the original DROID X: a 4.3-inch qHD 960 x 540 touchscreen, a dual-core 1 GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, an 8 MP camera with 720p video, HDMI output for 1080p mirroring, 8 GB of internal storage plus a preloaded 8 GB microSD card, a 3G CDMA/EV-DO radio with mobile hotspot, and Android 2.2 upgradable to 2.3 Gingerbread. It is a CDMA-only phone with no LTE. Collector shops, prop houses, and parts buyers take the DROID X2 from TG Wireless because the carrier-return lots are tested and consistently graded, and because the Verizon DROID line is a recognizable piece of Android history.

Condition: A Grade
A Grade (A-Stock) units are lightly used, fully tested, and working, and may show very minor nicks or scratches. Units are supplied as graded; ask your account manager about packaging (original box, accessories, or handset only) when you request a quote.
Network and compatibility
The DROID X2 is a Verizon CDMA 3G phone with no LTE and no GSM radio. Verizon shut down its CDMA network on December 31, 2022, and no other US carrier can activate it, so the MB870 gets no cellular service in the United States today; the Page Plus reference in the name describes its original MVNO use, not current service. See the network status line in the table for the listed carrier. Realistic uses are collectors and enthusiasts, film and TV props, parts and display units, and Wi-Fi-only use for apps that still run on Android 2.3.
Resale fit
- Collector and enthusiast shops that stock the Verizon DROID series.
- Film and TV prop houses that need period-correct 2011 Android handsets.
- Parts and display-unit buyers for qHD panels, housings, and batteries.
- Wi-Fi-only use as a media or test device where Android 2.3 is acceptable.
