not so charged

Again I have found another Sanyo phone that craps out at the charging port. Have liked its slim style compared to others but having trouble with the unit blue screening on me. I keep the phone in my pocket and was never abused so I am surprised by its disfunction. The listening port is also a pain to position for best operation. Wouldnt buy it again.

Not worth it...

This phone has so many problems.. I've had to replace it once because the screen went completely and irreversibly white... I've taken it in this past week after the screen turning white AGAIN and having problems like not receiving phone calls and getting texts over 2 hours late and sometimes not at all.

The phone scratches and cracks very easily. I had my phone in my jacket pocket, pulled it out and it had a huge crack in it.. THe phone almost feels as if it's made of cheap plastic...

The camera is just average as is the memory space...

The phone doesn't hold its charge well... The sound quality isn't very good either...

Overall, this phone is not worth the money...

Oh yeah I forgot to mention, using the voice tag option you can make calls as well w/o opening the phone. Also setting up the "Favorites" option is another cool feature, I put additional phone numbers in there as well and have them set to call or you can have it set to text, since all my speed dials selections are full. I may even get another as a backup incase something happens to this one. I'll have to check on ebay. Don't get the RAZR V3m, too complicated as all Motorolas, even the new Samsung M-500 you have to go thru option menus to activate the speakerphone, and their both "power vision" phones in which that setup is not full operational, at least not in my area.
