Motorola U6 Burgundy Red Blue, Carrier Returns, GSM unlocked
Motorola U6 PEBL in the finish listed as Burgundy Red Blue, GSM unlocked, sold as carrier returns that were tested and graded on receipt, with the source describing the lot as A-stock. Burgundy is one of the scarcer PEBL colors, so these go to collector shops and marketplace sellers before export lots.
Motorola's PEBL U6 from 2005 is the pebble-shaped clamshell that sat beside the RAZR in Motorola's design-led lineup: a smooth oval body, a dual-hinge mechanism that opens with a push, a vertical external display, a VGA camera with MPEG4 video, Bluetooth, and quad-band 2G GSM. It was sold in a run of colors, and this family is the burgundy red finish, listed here as Burgundy Red Blue.
TG Wireless offers the U6 to collector and retro-tech shops that want PEBLs in uncommon colors, to prop departments, and to exporters serving markets where 2G GSM voice service is still live. It has no US carrier service today.

Condition: Carrier Returns
Carrier return units come back through a carrier channel and are tested and graded by TG on receipt. Expect a mix of open-box and lightly handled units; cosmetics and packaging are confirmed per lot by your account manager.
Network and compatibility
The PEBL U6 is a 2G GSM handset with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. US carriers shut down 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile retired 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US voice or data service today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses: export to live-GSM markets, collectors, film and TV props, parts, and display units.
Resale fit
- Export lots for regions where 2G GSM service is still live and a simple tested handset sells at a low ticket.
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working Motorola feature phones from the 2000s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct handsets in a known color.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
