Motorola Sidekick Slide Q700 Fire Red, T-Mobile, New, T-Mobile branded
This listing is the Motorola Sidekick Slide Q700 in the Fire Red Color, the T-Mobile version, brand new in the T-Mobile box. It is a collector and prop piece: the Sidekick data service it was built around ended in 2011, and its 2G radio has no US network to register on, so the buyer is a collector shop or a prop department, not an activation dealer. Fire Red is the finish that reads on camera.
The Motorola Sidekick Slide Q700 is the 2007 T-Mobile Sidekick built by Motorola: the first in the line with a slide-up screen instead of the swivel, over a full QWERTY keyboard, with a 1.3 MP camera, Bluetooth, a microSD slot, and a music player for MP3, WMA, and AAC files. It ran the Danger hiptop platform with always-on email, instant messaging, and MySpace Mobile, tied to a Sidekick data plan, on quad-band 2G GSM with EDGE.
TG Wireless sells it to collector shops and prop houses that want the Sidekick form factor in the Fire Red finish; it has no live network or service use today.

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. The source package list for this unit is the battery, charger, carry case, hands-free headset, USB cable, and T-Mobile box.
Network and compatibility
The Sidekick Slide is a 2G GSM phone with no 3G or LTE radio, and T-Mobile shut down its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, after the other US carriers retired 2G and 3G earlier, so it gets no US voice or data service today. Its email, messaging, and web features also depended on the Danger back-end service, which Microsoft shut down in 2011, so those functions do not work on any network. Lock state is per listing; it is T-Mobile branded, see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collector and enthusiast sales, film and TV props, and display stock.
Resale fit
- Collector and enthusiast shops that trade in the Sidekick line and 2000s T-Mobile exclusives.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need a 2007-era messaging phone in a bright finish.
- Display fixtures and parts for Sidekick restorations.
