Motorola W388 White MP3 FM 850/1900 MHz, New, GSM unlocked
White Motorola W388 MP3 FM candy bars in the 850/1900 Mhz version, brand new, GSM Unlocked, and boxed with battery, charger, stereo headset, data cable, and manual. The white finish rounds out an export order of basic music phones for GSM 850/1900 markets, and prop buyers take white for its visibility on camera.
The Motorola W388 is a 2009 entry-level GSM candy bar built around music and messaging basics: an MP3 player, an FM radio with RDS, a VGA camera with 4x zoom, MMS and SMS, a WAP 2.0 browser, CrystalTalk noise reduction, a 1,000-entry phonebook, a hands-free speakerphone, and a lithium-ion battery rated for up to 8.75 hours of talk and 13 days of standby. It is a 2G GSM phone with no 3G or LTE, and this lot is the 850/1900 MHz version.
TG Wireless sells the W388 new in box, in black and white, to exporters supplying GSM 850/1900 markets in Latin America and the Caribbean, and to prop and parts buyers who want a boxed late-2000s candy bar.

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.
Network and compatibility
The W388 is a 2G GSM phone with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile closed its 2G GSM network on August 3, 2026, so it gets no US service today. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table. The 850/1900 MHz band pair matches most of the Americas; these units are GSM unlocked. Realistic uses: export to live GSM markets, collectors, props, and parts.
