Motorola V3 Purple Alltel CDMA, Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished Motorola RAZR V3 in purple, listed as Motorola-v3-purple-alltell-rb, the Alltel CDMA edition of the RAZR. Purple Alltel RAZRs are a carrier-edition collectible now that Alltel is gone, and reconditioned units also serve prop departments and parts dealers supporting the Verizon V3c; there is no network left to activate one.
This is the Alltel CDMA edition of the Motorola RAZR, which Motorola sold as the V3c: the same 13.9 mm aluminum clamshell, etched keypad, dual color displays, and Bluetooth as the GSM RAZR V3, but with a CDMA radio with 1xRTT and EV-DO data for the Alltel and Verizon network family, and a 1.3 MP camera in place of the GSM model's VGA unit. Alltel sold it in several colors; this lot is purple.
TG Wireless sells the Alltel RAZR to collectors who track carrier editions and RAZR colors, to prop departments, and to parts dealers. Alltel was folded into Verizon in 2009 and the CDMA network is gone, so it has no service anywhere.

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 Alltel RAZR V3 is a CDMA handset built for the Alltel and Verizon network family, with no GSM radio, no LTE, and no VoLTE. Alltel's network was absorbed by Verizon, which retired CDMA on December 31, 2022, so the phone cannot be activated for voice or data on any US network today, and the CDMA-only radio rules out GSM export as well. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. Realistic uses are collectors, film and TV props, parts, and display units.
Resale fit
- Collector and retro-tech shops that stock working Verizon-family handsets from the 2000s.
- Film, TV, and theater prop departments that need period-correct phones in a known color.
- Parts and display units for repair shops and store fixtures.
