USER REVIEW: Katana Blue

PROSBluetooth enabled, good quality speaker phone, sturdy, nice big buttons
CONS
Battery life
SUMMARY
While this phone is not so great on battery life, the pros of it seem to outweigh this one con. There is good voice quality and excellent antennae reception. The buttons are nice and big for the less delicate dialers, and the phone is sturdy and not easily broken if dropped. If considering this phone, factor in a car charger as well.

USER REVIEW: Awesome Phone

PROSLarge Bright Screen and workes just great. This is the best phone I have ever owned. Easy to use and very stylish
CONS
None at this time
SUMMARY
I have had this phone for about a month now and it works perfect. Excellent sound quality gets reception even in areas with little or no cell coverage. The speakerphone on it works better than my desk phone. I only have to charge mine about every three days it holds the charge that well, and I use my phone a lot. I download and text message and call all the time. The phone is thin, yet, sturdy and well built. I have taken great pictures with it and I am very happy with this phone. My office mate bought the Verizon Chocolate and had nothing but problems with it, mostly the phone would use up the battery without him using it. He brought it to the Verizon store and they gave him an extended battery and even with that the phone would use up the charge without him using it at all. He then bought the Verizon Razor and it does not even come close to the Katana. I own two Katana Phones and gave one to my brother who lives in an area with weak cell coverage and he has no problems with his Katana. Sanyo built a great all around phone.

PROSThe blue is great and really makes the phone look clean and very sharp. It feels sturdy, like it is going to last and not fall apart after one accidental drop! The menu was friendly and easy to learn along with the camera functions. Both the internal and external displays are clear and bright. Love the Bluetooth and won't buy another phone without it again! Like most new phones the battery has been great for the first few days that I have been using it, so let's hope it will stay that way.
CONS
I can't speak of any yet.
SUMMARY
After a few days I have been impressed with the Katana. This is my first Sanyo and I am happy to say that so far I can't really think of anything that I would change.
