Sanyo Katana DLX Review

The Sanyo Katana DLX is currently the most feature rich model out of the Katana series. The overall design of the phone as been updated with sleeker lines, a more stylish look, and is available in three color choices. The DLX now offers a 262K Color Display, 1.3MP Camera, and MicroSD card slot, which are all noteworthy upgrades from the previous models. Unfortunately, the external display remains the same small size. The DLX is also capable

1. I DON'T LIKE THE KATANA DLX!!!!

I HAD THIS PHONE FOR 1 DAY AND SENT IT BACK. I HATE ALL KATANA PHONES. THE FEATURES AREN'T GOOD, YOU CAN'T RECORD VOICE MEMOS AND MAKE THEM INTO RINGTONES, AND YOU CAN BARELY HEAR IT WHEN IT RINGS. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER KATANA OF ANY KIND. RESTRICTING YOUR PHONE 2 "CONTACTS ONLY' DOESN'T MAKE SINCE 2 HAVE ON THE PHONE WHEN IT WILL RING ABOUT 10 TIMES BEFORE GOING 2 VOICEMAIL WHEN THE "CONTACTS ONLY" FEATURE ON THE PHONE IS DESIGNED 2 LET CALLERS WHO AREN'T IN YOUR CELL PHONEBOOK AND UNWANTED CALLERS 2 BE SENT STRAIGHT 2 VOICEMAIL AFTER 1 RING. I LUV THAT FEATURE BUT ON THIS PHONE IT SUCKS AS WELL AS OTHER FEATURES ON THE KATANA DLX AS A MATTER OF FACT ON ANY KATANA OR SANYO PHONE LOL!

2. LOVE THIS PHONE!!!

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!!

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

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!
