'the i1's awesome PTT capability and the carrier's all-in, $50/month prepaid service make this phone a good deal nonetheless.'
'Yeah, well, "i1" is a pretty notable, stand-out model name if you ask us -- and it's not every day that you see an iDEN device with WiFi, suggesting this'll be a smartphone.'
'If you're migrating from another Direct Connect device to the Motorola i1, the ability to download apps, surf the internet, and the general first-class smartphone experience that Android offers should please you. '
' A great phone we had a look at is the Motorola i1, a cell phone that has been created to compete a very competitive market.'
'the phone is solid and slick, although a little on the heavy side at 110 grams.'
'the phone does not stay steady in the hand.'
'It's slow, it has just a VGA camera, MP3s sound like they're being played back from a sarcophagus under a pyramid, and, well, just about everyone in a second class train compartment can now be segregated into Nokia 6600 users and some Reliance users.'
'A speakerphone is useful for hands-free calling when you're driving or multitasking.'
'Though BlackBerry devices have packed in phones for years, holding them up to your head has always felt and looked awkward.'
'It's often difficult to find the sweet spot for both the earpiece and microphone.'
'It's slender and slab-like, comfortable in the hand, with the usual full QWERTY keyboard and a bright 160-by-240 color screen that looks especially good in sunlight.'
