Description
Motorola Admiral XT603 Sprint, Factory Refurbished, Sprint CDMA
Factory refurbished Motorola Admiral XT603 Sprint, reconditioned to close-to-new working order, with the Gorilla Glass screen, physical QWERTY keyboard, and military-spec body that defined the model. Collectors and prop houses that want a clean rugged Android with Sprint branding and repair shops that keep reference units on the bench take this one; the Sprint CDMA network itself is no longer live.
The Motorola ADMIRAL XT603 was Sprint's late-2011 push-to-talk Android: a 3.1-inch Gorilla Glass touchscreen above a full physical QWERTY keyboard, a 1.2 GHz processor, Android 2.3, and Sprint Direct Connect PTT, in a body built to military specifications for dust, shock, solar radiation, and temperature extremes. It was pitched at field crews and small business users who wanted BlackBerry-style messaging with PTT on a CDMA network.
TG Wireless offers the ADMIRAL to collectors of rugged and QWERTY Androids, to prop departments, and to parts dealers; the Sprint CDMA network it ran on is gone.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
The Motorola ADMIRAL XT603 is a CDMA handset built for Sprint's 1x and EV-DO network, with no GSM radio, no LTE, and no VoLTE. Sprint retired CDMA at the end of 2022 and US 3G is gone on every carrier, so the phone cannot be activated on any US network today, and the CDMA-only radio rules out most export use. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collectors, props, parts, display units, and Wi-Fi or offline use where supported.
Resale fit
- Collectors and prop departments that want a rugged QWERTY Android with Sprint branding.
- Repair shops and parts dealers that need donor keyboards, housings, and screens.
- Display and training units where no cellular service is needed.
