Motorola WX180 900/1800 export, Factory Refurbished
Export-build Motorola WX180 GSM 900/1800 candybar, factory refurbished and supplied with its original battery and battery door. A color-screen basic phone with FM radio is the standard low-ticket handset for export dealers serving markets with live 2G coverage; it has no US bands and no use on a US network.
The Motorola WX180 is a 2010 entry-level GSM candybar one step above the WX160, with a color display, FM radio, a flashlight, a simple menu, and long standby, aimed at first-time phone users in emerging markets. It is a GSM 900/1800 handset with no camera and no data beyond basic 2G. The source states the lot ships with the original battery and original battery door.
TG Wireless lists this factory refurbished lot as a GSM 900/1800 export build for dealers serving markets where 2G service is still live and a tested basic handset sells at a low ticket, and for parts and display use. It has no US bands and no US service.

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 WX180 is a 2G GSM handset with no 3G, LTE, or VoLTE. The listing gives its GSM bands as GSM 900/1800. 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. Export only; the bands do not match US GSM.
Resale fit
- Export lots for regions where GSM 900/1800 service is still live and a tested basic handset sells at a low ticket.
