Its an ok phone

this phone i have had it for over a year and i like it but i wish it was more advance on some of its features. sometimes when i open the phone to look up a number or send a text and the screen freezes up so then i have to reclose it and open it again to get the phone to kick on. one good thing is this phone is durable its survived my year old son playing with it for the last 6 months and he drops it all the time. its survived me dropping it all the time on concrete ashphalt and etc and i havent had it break. i like this phone too cause its small and compacted.





small and compact.

durable

Good Easy To Use Phone

24 Jun 2009 KeepNTouch

7.3 out of 10

I selected this phone for my aging mother when she FINALLY left Verizon to join my plan with Sprint and save some money.  She's old and doesn't like things too complicated.  She has hearing problems and needs glasses.  My mother really likes this phone.  She's very happy about the improved voice quality, it syncs well with her bluetooth and even in her car's bluetooth (yes she's still driving).


Grandma didn't want a lot of bells and whistles and she doesn't want to learn a new phone every two years.  Apparently Verizon nudges and nudges you to upgrade your phone and not everyone wants to relearn something new.  Since we are still using a 4 or 5 year old Sanyo phone (MM8300) on one of my lines, I felt confident that my mother will be safe with her Katana for years to come.


OH.,, it has a very good battery life because my mother FORGETS to charge the phone at times.  Mom!!


My mother likes the design of this phone as well.  Oh brother!  Didn't think she would notice, but she did.  Glad I could help.





sound on calls
simple to use/uncomplicated
good battery life
at this day and age I think a camera is EXPECTED

Bad phone

I purchased this phone in June having to have it replaced in July.  The keys stopped working.  I thought it was just that one phone, but here I am not even two months later having the same problem.  This phone sucks!
