Motorola Clutch i465 for Boost Mobile gets official

It won’t be winning any beauty pageants any time soon but Boost Mobile users waiting for a relatively rugged QWERTY handset will soon have a new option in the Motorola Clutch i465. Sprint and Boost obviously recognize that messaging is a bit of a hot topic these days and as such, we can expect the carrier to start rolling out a few QWERTY handsets to ensure its text-hungry customers are covered. First up, for better or worse, is the Clutch. It’s styling is certainly polarizing but love it or hate it, Moto managed to pack in a fairly decent feature set (relatively speaking). Highlights include Push to Talk of course, threaded SMS and MMS, POP3 email support, Bluetooth and a VGA camera. No, it’s not going to knock your socks off but relative to the rest of Boost’s lineup, this new Moto is an ok option if it’s released at a decent price point. The Clutch i465 will be available in Q2 of this year.

    I have had this phone for 4 days I hate this phone soooo much. It is the crappiest phone ever. The internet is horrible the texting is slow and I cant even receive pictures and audio from other carriers. I really wish I did not switch to this company. I miss metro pcs with a passion.

    Thanks Vince. I was wondering if Blackberry would work. I’ve heard it won’t and now that the new i465 is out I’m getting that! I just wonder if the web service works like blackberry. I have a i425 and the web service is wack. I was going to buy the i776 but now for $20 more I’ll wait and get the i465.

    Start calling numbers until you find somebody that knows who owns the phone.

    The i465 is awesome i have it for boost:) But if only they would of put an sd card slot it would of been better, and if the camera was a mega pixel it would have been better for more storage:D The video sucks because it has a 30 sec. recording time:/ so if you want a prepaid cell phone that does not cost a lot i recomend you getting it;]

    Metro pcs is so stupid they said it gives you signal or reception everywhere in the u.s. but they don’t now boost is better. so to the stupid ppl that have METRO PCS, BOOST MOBILE is better than metro pcs. okay sure boost doesn’t have gorgeous phones but atleast the service works not like metro. i had metro for 1 monnth not even a yr. and i had to cut it off because the service didn’t work very well. the calls would hang up, the txt msgs wouldn’t send and the stupid internet wouldn’t work. ive had boost for almost a yr. and i havent had any problems with it so far. so boost is better and you should get that phone. take advice from an expert.
