Best phone ever!
I tend to be abusive to my cell phones and I must say that this Sanyo 8100 has seen the worst. It has been dropped in the mud, skidded across asphalt parking lots I don't know how many times, been subjected to rain.....you get the idea.I was at film school when I first purchased it and it is still wokring great 3 years later.I did buy an additional battiery up front, so they have been swapped on and off as I needed more talk time. The screen is still bright and clear, I love being able to set ringtones for certain callers, and I won't ever get another phone that doesn't have the photo caller ID on the outside.This is great because I can just glance at a photo and see who's calling.
Excellent Phone
Excellent Phone - Sprint tried to get me to get a new phone but this one was awesome. I loved that little phone, too bad Sprint was getting too costly for my mobile needs.
Solid Phone
I have had this phone for almost two years and it has now broken in half. This has been the best phone by far I have ever owned. I have dropped it a bizzilion times and all the features still worked. It has falling off a moving car, fell in my pool, been thrown into a moving car..Nice tough phone.. Now I have to find a replacement... Ugh....I hope I can find another phone that can with stand the abuse and recklessness of the 8100. ... Read more

Solid workhorse phone, stylish, reasonable feature set
The Katana is a very solid phone wrapped up in a stylish package. It takes the RAZR look and feature set and goes it one better for less money.
A very nice voice phone
I just upgraded from a very old Nokia, so having the "new" features of the past few years is really rather nice.I used Mac OS X's Address Book's "Send these contacts..." feature to instantly load up the address book on the phone, so that's nice.It doesn't sync, of course, so you get some duplicates, but that's easy to handle.
Nice Phone Impressive features, Complements The RAZR well

I love this phone...
...and the only reason I didn't give it five stars is because I HATE Sprint and am switching to T-Mobile (I shed a tear as I say goodbye to my Sanyo).I originally had the red version, and it did die unexpedidly.It started shutting off on its own, and one day it just wouldn't turn back on (lost all of my numbers, which was crummy).But Sprint replaced it with the silver one (which was, admittedly, a let down).Honestly, I think my first one was maybe just a lemon because I have had NO problems with this one, so in spite of the problems with the original phone I would still highly suggest purchasing this phone (as long as you're set on Sprint).
Durable:my dad ranover with his car and it still works great
I love this phone.This is defitnly one of sprint's best phones.
Loved This Phone
I purchased this phone around 8/2005 in blue. Coming from the sanyo 8100 this phone's camera w/ built in flash was certainly and upgrade. This phone is full of bells and whistles like the walkie talkie, media player, speaker phone, ability to set the videos you take as video ring players and changeable accent plates. But after owning this phone for about six months the phone started acting like it needed an exorcist. REALLY NOW! The phone would start taking pictures on its own, the voice memo would come on on it own, the camcorder. The phone wouldn't allow me to make phone calls and the weirdness goes on. After a struggle I finally got Best Buy to do what they were suppose to do and send me a new phone under the extended warranty agreement that I purcahased. But they sent me a freaking silver phone which looked too much like the old Sany 8100 I had previously owned and all the other silver flip phones on the market. I became disenchanted with the phone and then it got stolen. Only to find out months later that it was my own freakin beloved niece who stole it from me. After getting my phone back I realized a gliche in the silver one. After deleting a text message it would always reappear. i deleted this particular text message several times and even all the text messages and after a while it always comes back. These phones cost fortunes but they are full of crap. ... Read more

Poor instructions
Just got my Katana today, and am unhappy at the moment. The instruction manual is poor.I am trying to download ringtones, but the manual only gives instructions for Sprint's rip-off ringtones that only last 90 days.I can't figure out how to get it to work with other sites and the instruction manual doesn't give a hint.The preloaded rings are awful.
Great phone for the casual user
I bought this phone to replace my 2 1/2-year old Samsung Vi660. I've been a big fan of the Samsung line, and thought about buying their comparable version to the Katana (the A900) but the reviews of the Katana's superior battery life won me over.I am not much for the fancy features of cell phones - I just wanted a slimmer phone that had a lower radiation emissions level than the Vi660, a built-in speakerphone, and bluetooth connectivity.After using the phone for a few weeks, here are my impressions so far:
Katana Blue
I've been a sprint customer for over three years and have owned three sanyo phones; Sanyo 8100, Sanyo 8300, and the Kantana. If you're coming from a mulitimedia phone like the Sanyo 8300, the SCP-6600 Katana may be a bit of a disappointment to you. The Katana just doesn't have all of the bells and whistles as a multimedia phone. The Katana has no built in flash which is needed for taking half decent pictures with a camera phone. It also has no camcorder or media player. But then again its not suppose to. It's basically an attempt by sprint and Sanyo to satisfy the consumer cravings for the popular RAZR phones that are available through wireless carriers like Cingular, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, Cricket and a few others. It's obvious by looking at the Katana that it was inspire by the Razr, which does not have MM functions either. On a feature note I would have to give the Katana a one besides doing the simple things like making phone calls and downloading ringers and screen savers there's just not much more you can do on it. Aesthetically the Katana is not that much of a beaut. However, it is for the time being a bit different looking so for (except when compared to the RAZR) that I'd give it a four. For the lack of a decent camera and camcorder I have to deduct two more points which brings rating down to three stars. Oh for those of you who are interested in bluetooth the phone is bluetooth capable. After looking at the Black, Pink and Blue Kantana phone I decided to get the pink. I like the way the blue looked over the internet but in person it was just too "loud" for my taste. ... Read more

katana
I got this as a gift, its too thin for me. I"m not into the credit card sized phones.Picture quality sucks, its hard to manage it.the menu buttons are inconviently placed, such as the My content and the address icon should have been switched around for better handling.its such a hassle to plug in the earpiece plus the connector to the phone!

Hot Phone, simple, cute
I really like this phone..its cute, its little, its perfect for a young woman.I had a pocket pc prior to this and it was so complicated just making a call.I wanted something simple, that wasn't an mp3 player (i have an ipod), that wasn't a professional camera (i have a nice digital cam), or a pda (i have a palm tx)... its just simple and cute.

Not horrible, but I wouldn't recommend it!
I have had this phone for about 9 months.I never really had any problems with the phone such as reception or battery life.Actually, I was sort of surprised at how long I could go without charging.Speakerphone always sounded clear on my end, but occasionally the other person was unable to hear me clearly.The camera is fairly easy to use.My problems with the phone have just recently begun.The first thing to happen was that the END button stopped working completely and I could not end calls, a big problem when you weren't planning to leave a voicemail!The only other option was to close the phone to end calls.Shortly after that, the phone couldn't recognize it was closed.It thought it was always OPEN!I couldn't see who was calling from the external screen and at times, the phone would answer itself.More recently, my TALK button has been shorting out, as well as the OK button.Sprint is willing to offer a replacement phone for $35 or a new keypad for about the same.I am stuck with this phone until I'm eligible for a free phone or I can switch carriers altogether.Choose wisely!

Will not Charge!
Had this phone a little over a year, same problem as everyone else. Won't charge. Shows charged, but then make one call and it is dead.

Horrible sound quality.Stay away!
I have had this phone for almost a year now, and although the signal reception is great, the sound quality on this phone is HORRIBLE!I have to ask the person calling me to repeat themselves at least once every call because the voice quality is so muddy.My wife has a different (and cheaper) phone and it sounds MUCH better.The only reason I have put up with it this long is I do not use my phone very often.I would not recommend this phone to anyone.This phone sounds worse than any other phone I have owned.Stay away from this phone!!! ...

Good solid phone
I have 3 sanyo 3100 phones with sprint. I have silver for me, brown for my son and pink for my daughter.The phones are sold, easy to use and have decent reception.The phones hold up well for the teenagers constant use.We love the phones so far.Service from Sprint is not so good, but the plan and phone are great for families.

AWESOME PHONE!
I have the pink sanyo 3100 and I absolutely love it!!!!I receive great signals, sound quality, and plus it's so cute.I love Sprints monthly plans.It's perfect for me because my husband and his family have Nextel phones, and with Sprint, I have unlimited mobile to mobile with Nextel for $5 a month.I refuse to pay for Nextel's monthly rates like them.The picture quality isn't the greatest, but I don't really use it for that.As far as T-Mobile being a great company like the first girl said, it is NOT a great company.Eveyone I talk to says that T-Mobile is aweful.I used to have T-mobile and they never had towers to give me reception when I traveled!!!!!!So, if you're looking for a cute phone with great sound quality and good reception, with a great company, this is it!!!!!

Sanyo 3100
A couple days after my 22nd birthday my parents and I went to the sprint store to get me a new phone.I had the pink sanyo 3100 and I really didnt like it.The reception was terrible, the battery life was terrible, the camera was the worst (it only takes like ten picuters and then you gotta delete some), the menu was hard to figure out and it was way over priced $150.After two months of use I convinced my parents to change to cingular as all my friends have it and I wanted my calls to be free (mobile to mobile). It took a couple of weeks to convince my mom to change to cingular because she had been with sprint for four years and the customer service was great.She did look into cingular and found out that they had roll over minutes which sprint did not and decided that should would switch to cingular. I was considering t mobile but my friend michelle told me she had it for a year, hated it, switched to cingular and absolutely loves it.My mom is very happy with her black razor and cingular as I am with my magenta razor and cingular and my dad loves his nokia 6102 :) Thank you cingular for making phones that are great looking, are easy to opporate and do not get frequent dropped calls :) ...

Review about actual phone
Compared to other phones on the market and the price, this phone doesn't offer much in the "extra feature" department.No camera, no MP3 player, etc. The only reason I bought it is it was black, looked sporty, had a color display, and the key pad was well designed/illuminated.If that is what you're looking for, wait, there's more...unfortunately after one year, my LCD screen will NOT turn off and stays illuminated 24/7.As a result, not only does my battery die FAST, but my sub LCD screen (the small one on the outter shell) doesn't turn on.And I can not view time/date/caller id without openning the phone.And of course fixing this costs more than the phone itself.That was on my phone's 1 year anniversary.Another 2 months later, the charger hardware is screwy too!When I plug in the charger, it goes in and out of charging.It's not the charger either, as my husband uses the same charger for his phone (different model) without problems.I however need to charge my phone 2X a day!Ridiculous!I paid $250 for this phone with only a year of problem free use...that just doesn't seem fair to consumers.The response I get is you should've bought insurance!!!!How about you should manufacture better products!Shouldn't these higher ticket items (especially laptops) offer longer warranty periods?

Sprint - terrible customer service
I wd give this one -10 stars!!

A champ!
This phone has been great. I have carried it with me everywhere I go for the last 2 1/2 years, and it has held up wonderfully. I have never had any mechanical problems, and aside from some minor cosmetic scratches from normal wear and tear this phone still looks and works just as great as it did when I bought it. I believe this was the first camera phone on the market to have both a flash and a zoom lens, and even today it takes better pictures than a lot of the new ones they are coming out with. The Internet capability was also very groundbreaking for me, and it was so convenient to be able to do things like check movie times at local theaters with the push of a fwe buttons. I'm getting to the point where I am about to upgrade, but really only for the purpose of getting a phone with camcorder and LiveMedia capability. I have had a couple of problems with the Sprint service over the years, which I think is somewhat unavoidable in this day and age, but they have always been willing to work with me and do what they could to resolve the issue. Bottom line, this phone has served me well and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good reliable camera phone.

Just looking for an upgrade
When i first bought this phone 2 years ago, i fell in love! It has a camera w/ a flash, and took better pictures than most of the other phones out there at the time.
Bad hinge
The flip phone hinges froze up and then one side at a time broke the plastic case and came apart until it broke the display cable. Takes the special y driver to replace the case and I can't find a Cell Phone store to replace the case.

Great Phone on Sprint service
This is a solid well built phone.At first I thought the battery life was poor but that was because I was used to my old Qcom boat with a huge battery.Now that I'm used to it, the battery life is fine and the small size more than makes up for it.After seeing a few other phones that my friend have and the problems with them, this phone in comparison is very good.I also like the easy access to phone number in the phone book and the "last calls" access.I've had this phone now for 1.5 years and love it.

Best Sanyo Phone to Date
This phone is truely amazing, however had the stars been in any way related to Sprint, I would have to give them two stars. I have owned this phone for 2 years and have dropped about five calls out of thousands. I have service well beyond when the avaerage Samsung(never buy Samsung phones!!!)has run dead while searching for a signal while right next to a cell phone tower! The only drawback is the size, and to me it is actually benificial because I have had the phone for two years and have never lost it or had any problems whatsoever. As for Sprint...Thery are great as long as your contact with customer service is limited...very limited! I had a rep hang up on me today after being lied to yestarday from another rep. There customer service department has caused me soo many problems throughout the years, but their phone service is great.

i guess the apple never falls far from the tree.........
this phone is wonderful. i've dropped it countless times and it has one scratch on it.to the gentleman that gave this a one star because his father couldnt figure out how to use it, all i have to say is that its quite evident that technological prowess does not run in your family.i would think that making a post here on amazon would be straightforward but it seems that you were not able to figure out how to use this either.

Good Basic Phone
I was looking for an electronic manual and came across this page. After glancing over the reviews I had to response. This phone is basic and was sold as a basic phone. It is even FREE too so that indicates BASIC.
i changed my Mind, horrible service, bad phone
this phone is actually pretty bad. within the first 3 months of getting this phone, i have had to get it replaced. now my second phone gets no reception anywhere. sprint's service is very bad. im switching to verizon immediately.

Excellent basic phone.Good reception, easy to use. Loud and clear sound
If you are looking for a phone that does not have a camera, and is easy to use and gets good reception, this is it.Sanyo makes the best phones in the Sprint line as far as reception is concerned. Much better than Samsungs.The sound is very loud and clear. I also dropped this phone in my cats water bowl, but after drying it on my dashboard in the sun for a day, it still works fine 3 months later.

Some slick design????
My main problem with this phone is the design.The rubber is coming off, and sprint tells me that will not replace the phone. What is the purpose of having an extended warranty.Sprint will not replace may $370.00 phone unless there is a problem, like ear plug does not work, guess what it does it.Sprint has not replace my phone as of yet.They are willing to give me a different phone that was someone else's phone.I don't think so. This phone cost to much for sprint to give me some crappy phone that belonged to somebody else.

No problems here...
The thing works great!I've had no dropped calls and that's from my home which has bad reception for all phones.Very sturdy.

Don't Even Think About It!
The only thing worse than this phone has been Sprint's response to addressing the phone.This phone began dropping calls about 90% of the time a week after I bought it.I took it to the Sprint store which my warranty directed me to and Sprint stated it was Sanyo's problem and I should contact them.After several emails, phone calls (using a land line since my $350 phone wouldn't function), & me reading word for word the warranty that came with the phone I purchased 3 weeks prior, Sprint stated if I took it back to the store, they would exchange it.After researching on the web, the dropped calls are a common complaint which Sprint has chosen to ignore, instead passing the defective phones on to their customers.I've been a satisfied Sprint customer for 8 years but this phone and Sprint's response leaves me feeling like Sprint has been deceptive.I will not remain a customer. ...

Outfitted with a rugged, durable exterior, the Sanyo RL-4930 supports Sprint's Ready Link walkie-talkie feature, which makes it easy to instantly communicate with anyone on a Ready Link capable phone. When you add that to great battery life (up to 5.5 hours), a color screen, a speakerphone and support for PCS vision services, you've got a powerful tool for mobile productivity. It deserves a serious look by those in construction or other rough and tumble industries.Read more

Earpiece lacks sound quality
I love the phone and it has all the features I want, signal reception is above average and talk time on the battery is great. But I just can't get over the poor sound quality of the earpiece.I have turn the volume down to hear the person talking clearly and if there is background noise on the caller's end, forget about it.
Good Phone
dident have the phone long, ploblum with provider.

Sensitive But Not To Bright
The 4900 was a far superior phone.The 4920 display cannot be viewed in sunlight (you cannot even tell the phone is active).The push buttons frequently require a second try/entry.The optimum sensitivity for the pushbuttons is when the phone is in a pocket . . . the buttons always seem to work.The Hold Functions (back key) requires pressing and holding twice.To undo the hold function one needs to push and hold twice or place the phone in your pocket to activate.
Great solid phone, great performance.
I don't know why, but I was thinking of buying a new phone today just because I like the cool looks of some of the newer phones, but after researching for a while, I think I'll stick with this phone.I've had it about 14 months and have never regretted my purchase for even one minute.That's 14 continuous months of great service, great battery life, everything has been perfect.I use the phone for about 2,000 or more minutes a month and signal is awesome, battery life is spectacular...I'd be stupid to take a chance just for a "better looking" phone.This phone is really all I need, so screw it...I'll keep it til it breaks some day! A+++++++

Won't charge period!
I have had this p hone for 9 months, and know someone else who had it for 9 months with this same problem.When plugging in the phone to charge it beeps like its plugging in then 5 minutes later it will beep as if I am un plugging it.Come morning my phone battery hasn't even charged period.So now they are sending me a new phone sinces its still on its warranty.Nonetheless its really annoying!

Not too shabby.
A phone that finally offers a color variety. It's nice to take a vacation from the plain silver phones that everyone has. This is a phone that's compatible with almost any lifestyle. Whether you're a working adult or a playful kid. The Sanyo MM-8200 has everything needed, plus more. It includes a built-in camera with a flash; a large, square LCD that allows easy reading; easy-to-read graphics; and helpful add-ins such as the R-Link walkie-talkie system. Overall, it's a great phone, and well-worth the money.

Sounds Great, Looks Great, Easy to Use
Even a technologically unsavvy person like myself finds it easy to use the dozens of features on this phone.The speaker phone is very convenient; every person who calls can be assigned their own unique musical ringer; and little things like the calculator and the alarm clock can really come in handy.Sprint PCS has by far the clearest reception of any cell phone network.I have never had a problem hearing people even when I have called from the remotest of places in out-of-the-way corners of the country.My wife and I bought the red and green models six months ago, and we have not had a single complaint about the phones or the service.I was a little skeptical at first about spending so much money on a phone, but the clear reception and numerous easy-to-use features make this product well worth it.
