AT&T Wireless

The RAZR maxx V6 (European Version) will not work with AT&T's HSDPA network for it lacks the 850/1900 MHz W-CDMA bands. Alternately, prototype versions of the maxx are quadband phones featuring the 850/900/1800/1900 MHz bands.

Telstra Australia

This handset has been released on Telstra's NextG network under the original name "Motorola RAZR maxx V6". This phone features compatibility with both the original 2100 MHz band and the newer NextG band, 850 MHz. It should therefore also be capable of roaming to the AT&T 850 MHz HSDPA network. The front of the phone is branded with the Telstra logo and on-screen presentation graphics have a Telstra theme. The phone was released by Telstra for outright purchase in late 2006 at a price of about A$800. However, the phone has been plagued with hardware and software reliability problems that are well documented in Australian phone discussion forums. It has not sold well and Telstra now owns a large inventory of unsold stock. The phone was repackaged late in 2007 and it is now sold with a prepaid plan for $250, locked for use only with Telstra SIM cards. A $50 unlocking fee applies. Many of the post-paid phones sold by Telstra in 2007 were inadvertently locked. These can be unlocked free by calling Telstra's unlocking line in Australia on 1300 720 179. (Bypass the automated system that seeks a credit card number by entering random numbers, then speak to an operator to access the free service.)

Hutchison 3

This handset has been released on Hutchison's 3 network under the original name "Motorola RAZR maxx V6". The back of the phone is branded with the 3 logo, also have the customized home screen, internal memory is increased to 60 MB, the phone startup screen is modified, and on-screen presentation graphics have a 3 theme.

maxx Ve

Verizon Wireless

The RAZR maxx Ve is available exclusively in the United States for Verizon Wireless customers. The maxx Ve features EV-DO instead of HSDPA and CDMA2000 1x instead of GSM/UMTS.
