Good phone, i have had a nextel for 6 years, work in a hotel, the nextel service is outstanding, i have always had full bars where other carriers dont, but since i switched to the ic502 i get a signal saying "walkie talkie only" meaning i lost sprint service, so its nice that i still have the direct connect feature, but it would be nice if the phone roamed on to the nextel tower so that there was still phone call usage.

This is the worst phone I've ever had! I went from the Nextel voice network to Sprint (when I bought the phone I didn't think it was made clear that I would have to switch this. I was told I would only have to have a different data plan). The Sprint network drops so many calls it is not even funny! The fact that the end call button is the same as the power button is terrible because when I end a call, my phone usually ends up shutting off. I am actually considering breaking my contract with Sprint because this phone is so terrible, not to mention the service that goes with it!

This phone is nothing but a headache. For starters, the battery life is too short. All you have need to drain this battery is about 2 hours of talk time and some text messaging throughout the day. Also, the phone likes to randomly shut off throughout the day especially when you have an incoming text message. The phone will abruptly restart itself as soon as you receive a new text. It also is notorious for doing this when receiving an incoming call. Furthermore, the keypad for texting is the worst I have ever used. Not only do you sometimes need to push a key twice for it to respond but also it's extremely slow at responding to text typing. Nothing special comes with this phone as far as features you have your standard tools and no games. I have had this phone for a little over a year now and can't wait to get rid of it!
