Pros: Voice activated dialing, speakerphone, long battery life, clear display
Cons: Bulky, lag time in keys, 20 digit max entries in phonebook, antenna, no infrared
The Bottom Line: Good current generation motorola phone. I find Nokia products easier to use and lighter. So if I'm asked for a recommendation, I'd say Nokia.

| edporter's Full Review: Nextel i85s |
I got this phone because our company is on the Nextel system and the phone seemed to have good options. It does have many more features that I probably won't use. It would be an EXCELLENT phone if it had infrared capability to transmit information to/from PDAs. The keys are also not very comfortable. If you're using the vibrate & ring mode, the phone vibrates first (3 times) then starts ringing which is different than most other phones that vibrate and ring simultaneously.
The voice activated dialing is great while driving. The speakerphone works VERY WELL. The phonebook is put together nicely but would be great if you could use infrared and not have to keystroke in each entry. Nextel has a killer website and online tutorial for their products.
