Summary: Poor Quality, No Customer Support
Review: I've had my i90c for about 6 months and it has been the most expensive and worst cell phone I've owned. It had some minor faults, like raised keys that defaced the LCD and tiny paint flicks that clouded the front window of the phone, but it recently has become very difficult to charge and I'm afraid that soon I will be unable to charge it at all. The phone has not been abused or dropped. It's just appears that the phone was not made well.I sent the phone back for repairs last month - 3 times. The first two times I received the phone back within a few days - without anything done and without any note. The third time the phone was gone for about 10 days and again, nothing was done. I talked to customer support before and after each shipment and spent hours in total on the phone with Motorola. Although I was told I would receive a replacement phone or have my problems repaired, I didn't. Worse, I still have the same problems AND I was without my phone for 3-weeks. I will never again purchase a phone from Motorola again. The quality of their top end phone and customer service is pathetic. Since I use Nextel which only provides Motorola phones, I will also be switching providers soon. Nextel should cary phones from more than one manufactuer, especially when that company does not stand behind their products.

Summary: Finally!
Review: I've had a number of phones before Nextel's i90c and none of them would perform well in my master bedroom. Nextel's i90c is as good as my wired phone. All in all, although the phone is a little bulky, it performs everywhere excellently. I have gotten service in areas my other phones never did. Some of my favorite features are: the speaker phone which allows you to carry on converstations without holding something to your ear; the alarm signals which are very clear and with more than enough volume; the snap holster which you can get works beautifully! It never comes off accidentally, and you can quick draw the phone faster than a western gunslinger can draw his revolver! Many other features make this phone in my opinion, a great buy!

Summary: Good phone, except charger
Review: We live in a rural area that is not well served by cellular service. After unsuccessfully trying several phones, I bought the i90c. Finally I was able to get better than spotty connections in my area. There are still areas where I know I will lose the connection, but at least I am aware of these and can plan accorningly.
My only gripe with this phone, and it is a big one, is with the charger. After using the wall plug charger for six months, it recently began displaying "incompatible charger" and not recharging the batteries. The cell phone company says that these phones have this happen "for some unknown reason" periodically. So off I go to buy a car charger. This unit will work when plugged into one of my cars, but not the other (In one car I also get the same warning as above). I am going to have to buy another wall plug charger but I would think that the manufacturer should have thought the recharging system through a little better. This issue makes me rate this otherwise fine phone as a 4 instead of the 5 I would have given it in the absence of this problem.

Summary: Great phone
Review: I dropped this thing from two story's on accident... and it still worked, now even two months later. Also, the features are awesome... Only drawback.. The specs said you could store a single persons name and it would only show up once, no matter how many phone numbers you entered. If there were more than one phone number for a person you could scroll horizontally, as opposed to vertically.. saving the time to get through your list. That feature doesn't work, however, I highly recommend the phone.

Summary: The Best!
Review: I've been a user of Verizon for over 6 years, but recently decided to give Nextel a try. I really thought that I wouldn't like it because Verizon supposedly had better coverage. Boy, was I wrong. This phone allows me to get my business done faster, and allows me to stay in contact with my co-workers without having to go to voicemail. It's awesome! And it is honestly fun to use. Verizon's coverage may be a little larger, but I'd rather live without coverage in a place I rarely go to, then give up this phone.

Summary: Typical Motorola Bulletproof Construction
Review: The Good Stuff:
*Awesome Midi Musical Rings
*Functional, Loud Speakerphone
*Nifty, communcatorish Blue Lighting
*Indestructable Construction
*Very Good Service Coverage
*Groovy downloadable java apps
*Large Phonebook
*Two-Way Radio Feature
*User Definable Styles
*Wireless Web Support The Not So Good Stuff
*Unable to Download new rings [yet]
*Battery needs to be charged every-other night at minimum
*Slightly larger and heavier than other [non-nextel] phones
*Voice Reco uses limited memory shared with java apps
*Only First Generation Wireless web -- Little or no graphics. I've owned this phoen for three months, and it is without a doubt the best wireless phone I have ever owned. The signal is great most of the time, the reception is clear, the ringtones are funky, and the phone is just fun to use. You can flip it closed with one hand after saying "Two to beam up" so everyone knows that you're a real big dork. You can sit in class surfing the internet or playing one of the included java games, or one you downloaded. Functionally, the phone is a virtual dream Physically the phone is larger than most, but that is not especially bad. It is comfortable to talk into, can be carried in a pocket without too much effort [you will realize if you forgot it though] and it feels rugged to use. It is rugged, as I can personally attest to: One day I was doing some work on my car, talking to my freind via direct connect all the while. When I was done, I placed the phone on the roof of my car and forgot about it. I drove away, took a hard corner at about 30, and watched in horror as the phone flew 25 feet through the air slamming into a curb. I picked it up and made a call, and it works just fine. A few scratches to give it charachter, but it works perfectly. If you want a phone thats so small you can hide it between your fingers, look elsewhere. If you want a rugged peice of communications gear that still has a very nice sence of style and a very funky presence: blammo, buy it now.

Summary: Chained to a land line when on call? The i90 can fix that.
Review: I'm an on-call database administrator at a dot-com here in San Diego, and it has to be said that Nextel's i90c is the most important work tool I have. Nextel's two-way messaging feature receives pages faster and more reliably than the Motorola 2-way pagers which have been a long-time staple of sysadmins and DBAs everywhere, and the recent addition of AOL Instant Messenger support gives my co-workers another way to get in touch with me. The whole on-call group once used company phones running either AT&T or Cingular. Due to these vendors' dismal quality of service, the primary on-call DBA wasn't supposed to even go out for dinner because land lines were the only reliable contact. Since switching to Nextel, the reliability is so high that I can even go to movies on Friday night - and its vibrate function is quiet enough not to disturb others while still getting the point across. The rate plans are also comparatively easy to shove at an accounting department. I don't know about you, but most of my personal calls at work tend to be incoming, not outgoing. Unlimited free incoming minutes mean never having to explain a week of hour-long conversations with the girlfriend to an expense auditor. And nationwide free long-distance and a huge pool of night-and-weekend minutes add up to keeping in touch with college buddies very economically as well. As for me and my house, I will choose the Nextel.

Summary: Nice phone, good coverage
Review: Those that are complaining about their phone service being lousy probably didn't do any checking to see how much Nextel had invested in their area as far as towers etc. I did my homework and for this area Nextel has very good coverage. So the obvious answer is: DO your homework, ask around, check and see what professionals in the area are using etc. So far the phone has worked very well for me, it is small enough when folded to be unobtrusive yet has a large enough key pad and footprint when opened to fit me well. ( I am 6'6" tall and weigh 320# so I was a little worried about getting a flip phone.) The sound quality is excellent and the menus, while sort of complex, are easily understood. (Especially if you spend a few minutes with the owners manual!) All in all I am extremely pleased with my purchase and glad I went with Nextel and the i90c!
