i700 plus Cell Phone

Pros: Durable, long lasting battery.
Cons: Added battery life and durability makes phone larger & heavier.

I am currently doing contract work for a civil landscape contracting company. They have numerous men in the field who work large jobs that extend over miles of highway. Keeping them in contact with supervisors via cell phones can really make their work...

Pros: Durable, apparently water resistant
Cons: A bit large and heavy

Who has dropped their mobile phone, watched it shatter into several pieces, and prayed that it would still work? Is this phone waterproof? I heard an amazing story today from a user of the NEXTEL i700 that I almost couldn’t believe.


I...

Pros: Two way radio--handy design--clear screen--text messaging--two line option
Cons: little bit bulky-- costs alot--costs alot to maintain

WELCOME TO NEXTEL IS RIGHT. God is this a cool phone. Not only does it come in a durable hard pact casing, but an industrial construction yellow. Right off the bat I would like to say that this phone has the most promise to become the family phone of...

Pros: Durable. Great signal. 2 way.
Cons: None that I have found.

Make no mistake, the i700 is the i500 with a yellow faceplate and a piece of rubber wrapped around a small portion of the phone. Not that it is a bad product by any means. Nextel calls it "ruggedized." They claim that it meets military...

Pros: features, look, rugged, clarity
Cons: weight, menus?

Within the last two weeks I have purchased a Nextel i700plus phone w/Nextel network service from CircuitCity.

The phone itself is exactly what I need. The i700+ comes in two different colors. Either all black, or yellow with black trim....

Pros: Durability, Ease of use
Cons: Weight is a very, very, very small factor

Welcome to the next generation in wireless communications. This phone has every thing you want and more. Well this phone is one tough cookie. It is made of hard industrial strength plastic and re-enforced on the outside with hard rubber. I am rough on my...

Pros: Very durable
Cons: Kind of large

We ended up with this phone, as we wanted something that was durable and could withstand being dropped. The i700 is certainly durable. Motorola designed this for people who abuse their phones. Everything about this phone says durable, down to the...

Pros: Two way radio
Cons: distance of commuication

I was forced to use this product for a beta testing of communication technologies. I had also tested Sprint, US Cellular, Ameritech, and Page Mart wireless communications.
As for the Nextel systems and cell phones, I had pretty good feelings of how...

Pros: Very Useful
Cons: Costs alot

My husband and I bought this phone and also bought the Nextel i550. Let me start by saying that in our own personal opinion that this is one of the greatest phones ever made. It has all kinds of different things with it. It has cell phone access, pager,...

Pros: Durable, long battery life, easy to use
Cons: Bulky. No Speaker Phone

Of all the Nextel phones I've been through, this is my favorite one. I can say that I've beaten the crap out of this phone and it still works! Dropped it in a snow drift for 3 hours and it's fallen on concrete numerous times. I'm not crazy about the...

Pros: None
Cons: Cuts out all the time

I couldn't wait to get rid of this cell phone. It always cuts out and must have a million dead zones. It's not possible to have a conversation with someone without getting cut off at least twice. It doesn't matter what state I was in either it just...

Pros: Durability,Caller ID Retrieval, 2Way Radio
Cons: None Yet.

I have recently purchased a Nextel i700 plus phone, despite the many problems I had with an i1000. This phone blows the i1000 away. The only feature the i1000 had that the i700 does not is the speaker-phone. This feature on the i1000 rarely worked...

Pros: Durable, caller ID, text messaging.
Cons: Expensive and bulky

My husband is a truck driver and we had a Nokia 5160 for several years before he dropped it (again) and it finally gave out. We went shopping for a new cell phone and a few of his friends all had Nextels so we decided to look there too. We did like...
