Motorola Brute i680 / i686
worse than ugly...
Buy an I9 if you are a white collar worker but if you work hard buy a phone that can take a beating.

You ****tard, it's supposed to be rugged. That's what the whole nextel brand is about. it's not for pansies looking for the latest wifi/touch screen/mp3 player/lick my anus/features.

I love it! 🤣 😎 😁

For anything that is designed for rough service, it is always better when form follows function, not style.
The owner of a Ferrari or a Corvette or a BMW might feel that a front-loader or a farm tractor or a grain harvester or an 18-wheeler, or even a Chevy Malibu or a Honda Civic or a Toyota Corrola are "ugly". Of course such a person is entitled to his/her own opinion. But such an opinion would indicate that they are living in a narrow world, peering through a very narrow viewport that is shaped only by luxury and style, not real-world practicalities and physics.
Anyone familiar with product design and development recognizes that even the Motorola i680 "Brute" phone has a lot of styling put into it, just not high-end glitzy styling. ...

Come on Mot, can't you bring iDEN style into the current time period?
No it isn't the prettiest iDEN Phone out there. It isn't meant to be. If you want a Pretty iDEN phone you can go with the i9, i890 or the soon to be released i1. Or better yet go to a carrier that has phones that are meant to be glitsy or (in the lexicon of today)Blingy.
I i680 is a tough, durable, waterproof phone meant for people who are hard on phones or work in a job that can kill anything else. Yes it has a Camera, it can play music, record video, has a GPS, a nice interface (for iDEN phones that is), has a external color screen, has a MicroSD slot, has a fast processor and gaggles of memory (for a iDEN phone)....
