Motorola E815 RB, Factory Refurbished, Verizon CDMA
Motorola E815 RB, the 2005 Verizon EV-DO clamshell with a 1.3 MP flash camera and miniSD slot, factory refurbished to close-to-new working order. Verizon's CDMA network is gone, so this one goes to collectors who want a working mid-2000s flip, to prop departments dressing a period set, and to parts dealers.
The Motorola E815 is a 2005 Verizon clamshell and one of the first handsets on Verizon's EV-DO network, built for the V CAST video service. It has a 1.3 MP camera with flash, an internal 176 x 220 display and an external color display, a miniSD slot, Bluetooth, and a speakerphone, in a heavy metal-trimmed flip body. It was a step up from the V710 and sold in large numbers before the RAZR took over Verizon's lineup.
TG Wireless offers the E815 to collectors of 2000s Verizon flip phones, prop departments, and parts dealers.

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 E815 is a CDMA handset built for Verizon's 1x and EV-DO network, with no GSM radio, no LTE, and no VoLTE. Verizon 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 retro-tech sellers who stock working carrier handsets from the period.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need a period-correct carrier phone.
- Repair shops and parts dealers that need donor housings, boards, and keypads.
