Can you use a Verizon Wirless phone (the EnV) on Nextel service?

Posted on February 21, 2010 by admin

I like the EnV phone because its really great for texting but I have a Nextel service. Is there any way that I can keep my Nextel service while using the EnV?

No, Nextel uses a technology called iDen. Verizon (and sprint) use CDMA. No sim cards with CDMA. I had nextel, but I was sick of them billing me hundreds a month for no reason, I switched to veirizon. Much better. They also have Walkey-Talkey phones if thats what you need.

    Unfortunately you can’t use Verizon phones with Nextel service because Nextel uses sim cards and Verizon does not also they are on different networks.
