Motorola RAZR V3 carriers

Aug 01 - 08:48 PM ET | Motorola

Due to the number of requests for information about the new Motorola RAZR V3 and what carriers it will be on, here is a quick answer: only GSM carriers. For those unaware of the technology behind cell phones, there are two major competing technologies in the US: GSM and CDMA. We'll leave out the geeky stuff, but you will never be able to use a GSM phone on a CDMA network or a CDMA phone on a GSM network. Here's a listing of what the major US carriers are:

  • Verizon Wireless - CDMA
  • Cingular - GSM
  • AT&T Wireless - GSM
  • Sprint PCS - CDMA
  • T-Mobile USA - GSM

There is no way that the Motorola RAZR V3 will work on Verizon Wireless or Sprint PCS unless Motorola announces a CDMA version. There are no rumors of this happening.

No carrier has announced plans carry the V3. It's due to launch in the third quarter.
