Motorola i90c Phone (Nextel)

Summary: The Best Thing Yet!
Review: I've used many cell services and I keep coming back to Nextel because of the Dirct Connect feature. If you don't need that, it may be a bit pricey. The i90c is the best phone I've owned of theirs (my 3rd one). Plenty small enough for me. I had a smaller T-Mobile phone and just had a hard time handling it at times. Easy to lose too. The voice recorder on this phone is amazing. MUCH better than any PDA I've owned. The only drawback I would have with this phone is that I think the screen could be a tad brighter. The bright blue on the numbers are great. Voice quality on the external speaker is also better than that of the i1000 and i55sr, two nice phones in their own right. Devoted Netxtel lovers and convertees should be very happy with this phone.

Summary: Good and Bad Features
Review: The good news! The date book feature eliminated the use of my PDA. You can set appointments and the i90 will alarm you when you want to be alarmed. It is getting smaller by Nextel standards but still is heavy. The voice dialing is a feature that just is not used by me because it does not perform as well as some Qualcomm phones I have owned. Illuminated display is good. The bad. It is not as easy to navigate as the old i1000. You have to push buttons, flip open the cover etc. to get to desired locations. i1000 was easy to dial as cell or connect with two way. this i90 phone is far more difflicult to navigate. Service is expensive. I would stay with cheap cell service unless you absolutely need the two way direct. Wait until they come out with an updated phone. This is like windows me, a fancy upgrade with little valuable tools save for the date book.

Summary: Great deal with Nextel!
Review: This phone is a huge step up from the standard Nokia phone I used to have. This phone has so many fun features, it's small (but not too small) and the blue backlighting is pretty cool! This is the best deal on a Nextel phone that I have ever seen and I wanted a Nextel because my dad has one and I always admired his phone and it's features. With [the] rebates on this phone it's a great time to BUY!!!

Summary: Customer Service???
Review: I have tried 3 other service providers over the past 3 years and Nextel and the i90 phone is by far the best service I have had for quality of the phone, call reception, depth of services, and price. BUT... if you have a problem (I had one with billing) patience is required. After two customer service reps said they were putting me on hold - they actually hung up on me. I called back a third time and immediately asked for a manager who finally got my problem fixed. Total time - 1 hour.

Summary: It's Really not That Bad......
Review: Let's preface this by typing that it is a really good phone...... I just don't like that dark, menacing color. But there are a good many choice of ring types and you can personalize your phone to your own settings. I didn't like the vibration option of the phone. It doesn't vibe very hard. I used to own a Motorola Timport (the silver one). That bad boy vibrated STRONG!! But this is still a good phone. It's not worth the [cost], but it's a good phone.

Summary: Fantastic for the small/large business or the large family!
Review: We first got Nextel service for our family winery after trying several different services. Nextel was the only company offering EXCELLENT coverage in our area. Now direct connect...even better. Because it's only one-way-at-a-time communication, it doesn't require as much bandwidth...so if you're in an area that you can't get out on a cell call, DirectConnect can still get out. I origionally had the i1000plus phone, and it lasted for 13 months. I'm hard on small electronics, going through a cell phone every 1-6 months. I'm looking forward to how the i90 will last with me. Great menus. Great phone...oh, and did I mention, it's blue backlights...tres cool.

Summary: Nextel Customer Service is horrible
Review: Nextel has the worst customer service. I have called them several times and talked with numerous service reps. I have asked to talk to supervisors and asked for call backs and have never recieved one. Nextel needs to start to care about their customers they have now rather than trying to get more customers. I have three phones and have been talking to them on and off for months and still nothing with my bill has been taken care of. I bought three i90s and was suppose to recieve them at a reduced cost and when I got my first bill I had the wrong plans and I was overcharged for the phones. Nextel is terrible.
