Intro...
I am a loyal customer of Nextel and this phone (i1000 & i1000plus) for over 2 years. I have nothing but great things to say about Nextel's Service and the especially the phone!


Pros (Things that I actually use and...

Pros: Stylish, Enclosed keypad, mic close to voice, Lith. Battery
Cons: Some design flaws, misc semi-common problems

The i1000plus is one of the original "professional" phones marketed to Nextel users. It is a "flip" phone which is a little larger than a StarTac but still small enough that you do not look or feel like you have another appendage strapped to your belt....

Pros: Small and surprisingly durable
Cons: better for business

Cool! One of the most feature-rich phone just got richer. Motorola has souped up the already-popular i1000, its highest-quality iDEN phone, and given us the i1000plus. The i1000plus is my favorite phone on the market. Its styling is a bit dated, but it...

Pros: great battery life; durable
Cons: lousy service in the Detroit area

I bought this phone as a group of phones for my business. I am in a business where I need to stay in touch with my employees and also need the convienence of a cellular telephone...I thought that this phone would be Utopia for me. Now 6 months later I...

Pros: Two-way radio, seemingly unbreakable housing
Cons: battery life, sudden phone shutoff, sudden call drops

My company uses these phones/radios for techs in the field. I find the two-way radio feature to be the most useful for the type of work I do. When I need immediate assistance from a colleague, I can simply pick a name from the list and beep him. The...

Pros: semi-small size, great sound quality, 4 different usage options
Cons: flimsy flip top, uncomfortable against the ear, elaborate programming methods are confusing

I got the opportunity to use the Motorola i1000plus (also known as the Nextel i1000plus through a small business setting. Preparing myself to possibly sell and promote these contraptions, I threw myself into getting to know everything about...

Pros: range, small, durability, features, and attachments
Cons: price, plan charges, sound quality, antenna

I've had my nextel phone for over three months. My boyfriend has had his for eight. I love having a cel phone and this is the first one I bought. If you want a reliable phone with great coverage get the i100 plus. It does have some drawbacks though,...

Pros: Everything
Cons: NONE

I have been using the Nextel phone for well over a year, had the bigger one, the one that they first came out with it was good, but it was a little too big to be put in a purse.

I now have the 1000 model and it works just as well as the bigger...

Pros: Sturdy, speakerphone
Cons: Complicated, awkward, short battery life

This phone is actually my company-issued phone. If the choice were up to me I don't think I would buy one although it's not a bad phone.

I have to admit I was a bit leery because of the flip form factor, but the phone seems rather sturdy....

Pros: Lightweight, with superb speakerphone
Cons: Skyscrapers cause signal drop-outs.

When my first Nextel phone bit the dust, I determined that my satisfaction level with Nextel merited the purchase of an upgrade. Going to the Nextel store, I looked at the various models, and considered the one that works overseas, since I travel a bit....

Pros: Well built, ease-of-operation, internet, battery life, 2way radio, speakerphone, can use w/flap closed, low radiation
Cons: some deadspots in suburbs, no way to turn off 'answer on flip open'

I got my Nextel because several co-workers had them and loved the two-way radio feature. I have not regretted it since.

The phone comes complete with a standard battery, belt clip, charger, manual and Instructional Video. Yes, they made a...

Pros: Durable
Cons: a little awkward

I used this phone for two months in NY City in a public art project, I picked this model phone for one reason: The speaker part is LOUD...originally when I was looking for a good phone to use, because I would be interacting with the public, I had thought...

Pros: Looks great! Lots of features!
Cons: Not very user-friendly

We switched from a standard one-piece phone to this flip phone. At first, I thought the ear piece (the part that flips up) might be fragile, but it fits to your ear comfortably. You can't really talk on this phone by resting it on your shoulder; you...

Pros: Speakerphone, Flip Top, Sturdy Design
Cons: Battery life, Flimsy Antenna

I just purchased this phone and I am VERY pleased with it and the carrier.
I have been trying in vain to find a cellular carrier that serves Golden Gate Estates
(area 20 miles inland from the coast). and was just about gave up when a friend...
