I got this phone in March and I'm so happy. When I started my service with Sprint over 5 years ago my very first phone was a Sanyo and so was my 2nd.

I strayed away on my 3rd phone with Sprint and got the Samsung Upstage - BIG MISTAKE! I got the DLX because I couldn't take the Upstage one day longer.

Sanyo always delivers - at least for me. I won't ever - ever, ever, ever - get anything the rest of my stay with the Sprint network.

The design is great and stylish. There's a lot of memory. The media player works wonderful. Internet connection is fast - gsm and umts. Sound quality is great too. The only downside is the way the flip was made - it's just a little different. But I haven't had any complaints from anyone who calls me or when I call them.

Thanks Sanyo!!

I bought a KATANA DLX at full price just 2 months after joining Sprint.

8.8 out of 10

When I went back to Sprint, I decided on the MOTORAZR since it seems like everybody has them, so it's a good choice, right? Well, it was a bad choice. The Sprint RAZRs have battery life problems. 2 days on an extended battery (or less than 1 on the standard) WITHOUT using it is bad. I went to my local Sprint store about 2 months into the contract and paid $330 + $20 for a holster to get a phone that actually works. I love the KATANA DLX and will never buy a moto again!
