Pros: Cool features, great reception, long battery life Cons: On/off button, speaker phone mic works poorly
I've had the Sanyo 4900 for 2 weeks now and I love it. I am currently working in an area on the fringe of PCS service. My Motorola Timeport 8767 was intermittently on the PCS network. The Sanyo is on the network 99% of the time in the same area.

This replaced my aging Samsung 3500. I know my batteries were old on that phone, but the battery li ...

Pros: weight, battery life, easy to use, can be used as MODEM, voice dial, speakerphone, Cons: battery falls out when dropped, downloads cost$$ and expire
This is the best phone Ive had. Super long battery life - I only charge it for about 1 hour a week, excellent reception, online capability is the best feature (vision), and the speaker-phone and games are better than average.
I can use it...

Pros: Excellent reception, Intuitive menu, speaker phone, excellent voice dial feature. Cons: Placement of speakerphone & volume control buttons are awkward; speakerphone function needs improvement.
Excellent phone, but as always, there's room for improvement. It has the best reception capability to date in the industry. Sanyo/Sprint's menuing system is easy and intuitive. I had the Sanyo SPC-4700 (another excellent phone) and upgraded to the ...

Pros: Long battery life, color screen, speakerphone Cons: Bigger than most phones, not "camera compatible"
Out of all the cell phones I have owned, the Sanyo 4900 is probably the best one I have ever owned.
I work in the electronics department of an office supply company, so I try to keep up to date on my technology. Just recently, I decided to go...

Pros: Color Screen, Price Cons: Bulky Size
Very recently I mosied on down to my local Sprint Pcs store for my next cellular phone. The allure of colored screens and low monthly rates were simply too compelling to pass up. And, at $49.99 with a $100 instant rebate, there was simply no way to...

Pros: Excellent color screen, battery life and reception quality. Cons: limited time for downloads and Sprint customer service
After some 12 years of cell phone service one gets to really understand what really matters in a phone, initially after reading some reviews of how bulky some felt this phone was, I expected something on the same scale as my old Motorola brick phone,...

This is my third cell phone and I am still with sprint PCS. I like their service plans. By far this phone has had the best reception and call quality. Here are some highlights of the phone.
The following are the great features.

Pros: LONG battery life, bright screen, sounds great, good range Cons: Clip placement, long, lighted buttons
I replace a Sanyo 5050 clamshell phone with this one. I used to miss the clam shell design, but I have gotten used to this.
The screen on this phone a lot brighter and the colors are more vivid. Having the color makes it much easier to use...

Pros: Color, long battery life, seems compact enough for me Cons: Downloads cost $ and are licensed for 90 days only; variable reception quality
Maybe I'm not well versed on the latest phone models, but this thing is smaller than phones I'd seen a few years ago. I think it's very compact.
Haven't had the ideal opportunity to test the microphone yet, but if it's anything like the...

Pros: Great battery life
Color screen
Best reception in the Sprint family
Very customizable
Cons: Rather bulky
Sprints SMS with Vision
This is an all around great phone, it may not have all the features of a Sanyo 5300, but for the price, you cannot ask for much more. I can leave this thing on for two weeks and never have o charge the thing. This is a great plus because you never ever...

Pros: great battery, looks neat and has a lot of cool features Cons: a lil unwieldly and the phone pad gets heated up!
The phone is a decent buy if got for a price within $50; the display rules with lots of options to play around if one has the time. The internet option with color is cool, but DEAD SLOW!Its time PCS improved their network speeds. The voice clarity is...

Pros: Nice Color screen, backlit, navigation menu's, battery life, lots of features. Cons: None
The Sanyo SCP-4900,
Very nice phone. However, this is my first cell phone I have owned. So I can't really nit-pick on this phone without owning other one's.
The Sanyo SCP-4900 is very lightweight. Fits perfectly in your...

Pros: 1) Amazing battery life..it runs and runs...
2) Great signal strength
3) Easy-to-use controls Cons: 1) Not the best-looking phone around
2) The speaker phone mike sucks
I bought a Samsung A-460 phone before this to replace a two-year old ailing Samsung phone I had. The A-460 was a cool-looking phone but the worst I've ever used. The battery would run out by the end of the day (after a couple of hours of usage) and the...
