Motorola Flipout MB511 AT&T / H20 Locked, B Grade, Carrier Returns
Carrier Returns B-stock of the Motorola Flipout MB511, AT&T / H20 locked and graded B Grade, with visible nicks or scratches and no color specified on the listing. This is the parts and donor lot: repair shops take mixed-color B Grade Flipouts for keypads, pivot mechanisms, and housings, and prop buyers who only need working screens use them too. Ask your account manager about the color mix.
The Motorola Flipout MB511 is a 2010 Android smartphone with a square body whose touchscreen pivots to reveal a five-row QWERTY keypad with a dedicated number row. It runs Android 2.1 with Motorola's MOTOBLUR social layer, has a 3 MP camera with Kodak Perfect Touch processing, CrystalTalk Plus dual-microphone noise reduction, 3G data, Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth, and shipped with interchangeable colored battery doors. The AT&T version sold alongside H2O Wireless, which runs on the AT&T network.
Dealers buy the Flipout from TG Wireless for its unusual form factor: collector shops, prop houses, and marketplace sellers of oddball phones want it, and repair shops use lots as donors. It has no US network service today.

Condition: B Grade
B Grade (B-Stock) units are used, fully tested, and working, with visible nicks and/or scratches on the body or screen edges. They suit value retail and refurbishment channels where cosmetics are secondary to a tested, working unit.
Network and compatibility
The Flipout MB511 is a GSM/UMTS 3G phone with no LTE. All US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so these AT&T / H2O locked units have no US voice or data service. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Locked status also rules out most export use unless a lot is unlocked first; the realistic outlets are collector, prop, Wi-Fi-only Android use, and parts.
Resale fit
- Collector shops and marketplace sellers specializing in unusual form factors from the early Android era.
- Prop and display buyers who want a distinctive 2010 smartphone.
- Repair shops buying lots for keypads, housings, and the swappable battery doors.
