Summary: u get what u pay 4
Review: 1st time nextel customer -shoulda done more consumer research before opening a business acct. w/them. 8 days ago we receive 1 i305 & 4 i205's. we paid the promo price of 24.99 for the i205's. i was warned by 2-3 friends that the plastic charger flap on the i205 was annoying because it wouldn't stay shut... we'll they were ALL correct! on all 4 of our i205's the rubber charger/plug cover just pops open - right after you close it. in addition it feels & looks as if the phone is all lightweight cheap plastic. the standard battery needs to be charged EVERYnight. it has not received any positive compliments yet from friends & other cell users. as for the i305 - it's the complete opposite of the i205 (but the battery like is aout the same, very short). we're keping the 305 & all the 205's are going back. haven't used them enough to comment on the clarity. as for nextel - that's a whole other talk show. i just wish i would have done a little more comsumer research before i signed the bottom line.

Summary: Bad Product
Review: I got this phone for a back up and it's not even good for that. VERY cheap plastic, creaks like an old wooden floor. The DC speaker has loose parts in it so when I am in a DC conversation there's so much rattling it makes it hard to hear. The Charger port has a cheap rubber flap covering it that won't stay shut. There's a horrible tick sound in the background on all my calls that I have never experienced before. The battery lasts me a day if I don't use the phone, with minimal use I find it dying long before the end of the business day. I'm very glad my i710 is on it's way because this thing is just junk. You definitely get less than what you pay for with this item. Many of my friends have left Nextel because of the poor product Motorola is putting out for them. This phone is no exception.

Summary: basic phone for basic users
Review: I had one of these for over a year, until I finally lost it. Great phone, never gave me so much as a moment's trouble in all that time. No, it doesn't have a camera or a color screen or games, but if all you're looking for is a basic, no frills phone, look no further. Calls were crystal clear, Nextel has very good service, at least in Philadelphia. Also, like almost all Nextel phones, this thing is a tank. I dropped it more times than I could count, at least twice down a flight of stairs, and it never got so much as a scratch on it. All in all this phone is an excellent choice for a first time cell phone user, or for that rare breed of person who just wants to use their cellphone to make PHONE CALLS.

Summary: Motorola i205 Phone (Nextel)
Review: The 1205 model Nextel cell phone is one of the best cell phones that I have had in a long time. It has great coverage and mobility. I have gone days without recharging it.The reason why the battery might run low early is because of many phone calls being made from that cell phone. When you take the phone off the charger and the flap won't close use your finger nail and close the upper corners into the phone and once both corners are into the phone press over the whole flap with your finger. If you have a non-Motorola phone cover on you i205 it is going to be twice as hard but go around all the corners of the flap and im sure you'll get it to stay. Other advantages to the i205 are that you can get many non-motorola accessories from other companies such as: phone covers, colored and flashing key pads, flashing antennas and holsters and cases. I hope this information persuays you to buy a nextel and these helpful tips to help you struggling i205 users. If more help needed with the i205 please email me at [e-mail]. Thank You!
