Reviews of the Motorola i580 (Nextel)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Motorola i580 offers a rugged design and a respectable set of features, including Bluetooth, a megapixel camera, an MP3 player, and a Micro SD card slot. It's also one of few cell phones from a U.S. carrier to support two separate phone lines.
The Bad: The Motorola i580 is bulky and has a small external display. It lacks external music controls, and the battery life is a bit short.
The Bottom Line: The Motorola i580 isn't pretty, but it packs an excellent feature set and decent call quality in a durable design.
