Motorola W270 900/1800 (export), Factory Refurbished
Factory Refurbished Motorola W270 on GSM 900/1800, listed as Motorola-w270-rb 900/1800 (export): a basic W-series candybar reconditioned to close-to-new working order for export markets. Distributors shipping refurbished voice-and-text phones to 2G GSM 900/1800 networks are the buyers; color and lock state are not stated, so confirm with your account manager.
The Motorola W270 is a late-2000s entry-level candybar from Motorola's W series, built for GSM 900/1800 MHz networks outside the Americas. The source listing carries only its heading, so this page states what the name and SKU establish: a dual-band 900/1800 GSM handset, factory refurbished, sold for export. Like its W-series siblings it is a basic voice-and-text phone without 3G or LTE.
TG Wireless supplies the W270 to export distributors serving 2G GSM 900/1800 markets in Europe, Africa, and Asia where low-cost refurbished handsets still move, and to collector buyers filling out a Motorola W-series set.

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 W270 is a dual-band GSM 900/1800 phone. US carriers never used those bands, and T-Mobile closed the last US 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so the W270 has no US service and is sold for export only. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. It registers on 2G GSM 900/1800 networks in Europe, Africa, Asia, and parts of Latin America where they remain live; confirm 2G status with the destination carrier before ordering in volume.
