You wouldn't mistake the Nextel i265 for another carrier's phone.
Nextel's phones are known for being big and clunky--or sturdy and solid, depending on your point of view--and the i265 is no different.
The Nextel i265 comes with a solid, if unremarkable set of features, including Direct Connect push-to-talk; a speakerphone that you can turn on before placing a call; 3MB of shared memory; GPS support, although service is spotty to nonexistent indoors; text and multimedia messaging; wireless Web browsing using, unfortunately, a text-only WAP 1.
We tested the Nextel i265 (iDEN 800) in New York City, and we had no trouble chatting with our callers, who reported hearing us loud and clear.
