i-Mode started in February 1999 with simple handsets with black & white screens and low 9.6kbps data connectivity. Today's i-Mode handsets fall into several different classes:

- 900 series are the top range line

- 700 series are the mid-range line

- Raku-Raku phones for the silver market with are designed to be simple to use, with large letters and easy readability

- Children's phones for the pre-school and primary school segment with special security functions, and functions so that parents can remotely determine the location of the phone (and hopefully the child carrying the phone)
