Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Meh..Not Bad Comment: I need a Nextel for my work so this was my "step up" from old Nextel (i560, worthless piece of crap). So far no real complaints other than the battery life seems a little conservative. Has good screen size and resolution, much better than my old one. Browser is much much better than earlier generations. Buttons are big and easy to toggle. Sound quality, both earpiece and speaker, are excellent. The digital camera gets the job done but it's mediocre quality. Not recommended if you are looking to snap a picture of something important. Has a stylish, not flashy, look and the blue readout is actually quite cool. Recommend if you are purchasing second hand, probably could do better for about the same money buying another model new. Customer Rating: Summary: Flippin Problems with this model phone Comment: i850 2 wks after received--would power off everytime I closed it & also during calls. Sprint gave me HUGE hassel when trying to get it replaced. On phone with them 2:15 PM until 4:43 PM, went through LONG list of people who couldn't make a managerial decision and would transfer me to someone else or just keep me on hold extremely long time. One tried to sell me more expensive phone and telling me they DID NOT HAVE another i850 IN STOCK--I called back and another salesman said i850 was IN STOCK and did I want one. During final call I requested anyone in management and a lady finally took care of my call properly and 2-day expressed new phone, no charge.
The aesthetic design and ease of use is lovely.
The durability and value is LOUSY.
I'll post again if replacement i850 is faulty as well.
Customer Rating: Summary: the flip Comment: The phone itself is very sleek however the quality of the phone is terrible. Just like most of the negative reviews I have trouble with the flip going in and out. The only suggestion was to but the flip part which indeed will be more than the phone cost me. That is ridiculous. I think the phone is nice looking but I wouldn't recommend for anyone purchasing a new phone. Overall I am dissatisfied and feel as though I was tricked. THe phone sucks. Customer Rating: Summary: A Good Basic Phone but... Comment: The reason I use Nextel's service is that I get better coverage here in N. Florida. The telephone was on special but I can see why. The telephone gives good service and I do use the camera which is OK but the pictures come out a little small even at large setting. BUT I would not recommend this phone for one key reason: The charger/computer connector. I have bad thoughts about the designer that created the plug at the bottom of the phone. The waterproof cover gets in the way of plugging-in andf you have to fiddle with it until you get a connect. I would not have another phone that uses this connection system...:( Customer Rating: Summary: THE WORST Comment: First of all, I'd like to say that I don't personally know anyone who's completely satisfied with Nextel, their phones, and their service. Dropped calls, frozen screens, random shut downs are regular occurances for a Nextel phone, and trust me, I've been through quite a couple of them. They all eventually break down. Anyone defending Nextel is probably working for them, or hasn't been with Nextel for over a year. We just purchased two of the i855 phones (our i830 had finally given out after less than 7 months) and one phone has already frozen and will not turn back on. In fact, at a restaruant the other day I over heard a woman stating that Nextel phones were built to break-down after a certain time (makes sense, the customer would need to buy another one). I assume the person on the other line asked her how she new such a thing because she responded "Well, I used to work for them." It's disgusting how they take advantage of their customers. After explaining the problems to customer services, they continue to bribe you with better, "newer" phones in exchange for the promise of a 2-year contract with them. Their service is horrible, and you're phone will eventually give you problems. I PROMISE THAT!
