    Mar 20 '01
    Pros: Excellent features, two way radio, small and light weight.
    Cons: battery life is short.

    Summary: Have you ever found yourself working on a tough problem and you really need to call someone who you know has the answer, but the nearest phone is 20 ft away or worse yet the two-way radio is out in your truck. I found myself in this situation way to many ... read more

  • Need a Walkie Talkie?

    Jul 06 '08
    Pros: "Walkie Talkie" feature
    Cons: Dropped calls, clumsy programming

    Summary: I am a sales representative in Southern California, with a territory ranging 30 miles of the 210 Freeway. MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREA. It is virtually impossible to complete a conversation on this phone. I signed a one year contract and paid $100 for this ... read more

  • Avoid at all costs!

    Jul 30 '02
    Pros: Durability, sound quality, speaker phone quality.
    Cons: Horrible company, horrible network.

    Summary: I have spent more time on the phone with Nextel trying to correct their billing errors than I have with talking to friends and business partners. It took them a span of 4 months to correct a mystery charge of over $80 that I was forced to pay twice ... read more

  • Might not work when you need it to!

    Jun 27 '02
    Pros: Lightweight
    Cons: Not very dependable

    Summary: My husband and I both have one of these phones. His works fine, mine doesn't. My husband uses his for work and likes it because it is very lightweight. I like it because when you open the flip top the part where you hear is right at your ear and the part ... read more

  • Great phone

    Jun 09 '02
    Pros: Tons of features
    Cons: Battery life not great if you use the phone much.

    Summary: This is a great phone with tons of features. I really like the speakerphone section making it a handsfree model. The battery life I have not found to be that great since I use the phone for a business. The direct communication is another nice feature ... read more

  • Finally I can afford the i1000

    Apr 27 '02
    Pros: Speaker phone, light weight, dependable
    Cons: no clips or carriers exist that allow you to see who's calling without removing first

    Summary: I waited for years for the price of the i1000 to fall within my price range. Boy am I glad I waited. I got the newer version with speakerphone and I'm so pumped. The size is perfect the range is divine, and the clarity is much better than previous ... read more

  • If you buy a Nextel Motorola i1000plus, do not get the slim line battery.

    Apr 25 '02
    Pros: Lightweight, Compact compared to other Nextel phones
    Cons: Slim line battery has a short life

    Summary: My job requires me to carry a Nextel phone, so that I can keep in constant contact with others in the workplace. When i received my first Nextel it was big and bulky. I decided to go purchase a smaller more compact one for myself. When using ... read more

    Pros: Affordable, lasts long, speaker phone, two way radio.
    Cons: A bit complicated to use and a bit bulky.

    Summary: This is a very good business phone. The two way radio is very handy. The speaker phone is also very handy especially when driving a car. This phone is very sturdy and will last you a very long time. The bad thing about this phone is that it is a bit ... read more

  • Nextel, the way to go!

    Feb 07 '02
    Pros: Great Clarity (when in service), Direct Connect, Great new improvement!
    Cons: Some dead zones, low battery life at times.

    Summary: Okay, so my title sounds like an advertisement yea, but I must say that after a month of usage, I'm very happy with my Nextel service. I previously had Sprint and Verizon. Sprint, I don't even need to go there with, and Verizon was good, but ... read more

  • Great Phone if you Have Lots of Money to Spend

    Pros: Speaker Phone, Direct Connects, Small, Compact
    Cons: Phones & Plans are expensive, programming hard to understand

    Summary: My husband and I purchased the twin pack of the Motorola i1000 Plus from Office Depot in Florida. They were about $150. The salesperson called Nextel to see if we could get the phones turned on from there. One of our major decisions to choose Nextel ... read more

  • Nextel i1000 plus

    Nov 13 '01
    Pros: Compact, direct connect is nice.
    Cons: POOR battery life... Coverage could be better.

    Summary: This is a nice phone, with the direct connect (two-way cb) functionality. Makes it very easy to quickly contact someone and not be forced to leave a voice mail message. The battery life on this phone is poor. If you talk any amount of time, ... read more

  • I waited 5 years for this phone.

    Aug 31 '01
    Pros: Speaker Phone, 2-way radio, text paging
    Cons: Low Battery Life. Accessories from Motorola are expensive. Interferes with TVs and Computer monitors.

  • So many features, but the connection quality is not as good as some analog phones!

    Aug 17 '01
    Pros: Speakerphone, two-way radio, e-connections (text pages, web capable, etc).
    Cons: Short battery life when used often, conversation delays, connection drops, RF interference with other electronics.

    Summary: We purchased several of the Nextel i1000plus units for my department. In our evaluation we looked at Sprint PCS and Nextel. We chose the i1000's because of the two-way feature which PCS did not offer at the time. Prices were similar between the two. ... read more

    Summary: This phone just about has it all! The features are endless,from speaker phone to call waiting. I can't begin to express my felling for this phone. The size is perfect for pockets ( I hate phone covers) but even the carrier is light. I currently own one ... read more

  • Nextel: It's not just for Business anymore.

    Jul 10 '01
    Pros: Super features, good sounding audio, web access
    Cons: Breakable, occasional poor reception

    Summary: For the past few years, I have been an AT&T customer. They were the only wireless carrier offering a Nationwide Rate Plan which didn't tack on roaming, long-distance, etc. Being in a business that has me travelling all over the country, I wanted just ... read more
