Sanyo SCP-8500 Cell Phone Reviews

by Jean -- March 10th 2008 -- Washington, NJ

Absolutely fantastic; it's got everything! Also, it is so small and compact, I'm afraid it will get lost (I'm not one to use the belt clip that came with the case that was ordered separately).

I am just really loving my new Sanyo SCP-8500, and I just want to tell you all at Let's talk that I appreciate all you did to help me get this phone and I look forward to contacting you in the near future about all my wireless needs. Berdetta Adams

I love the Sanyo SCP-8500, its the best I've had thus far, it lets you multi task, and if you get a text while your on the phone you can read it as well as reply back. Its AWESOME. I plan on keeping this phone for a long time.

I LOVE my Sanyo SCP-8500! My family members who have the Motorola Razr are jealous of my phone and also love the look and feel of the Katana DLX. (We're all crazy about the color, too!)

I am more disappointed with the company LetsTalk than the phone they lied to me about several features when I asked if the phone had they said yes, the phone works ok for the most part but the battery life sucks. All and all will probably not shop with LetsTalk or recommend them to anyone and will not buy another Sanyo.

This looks like a decent phone. Never really got to use it, though, because Sprint has my plan so screwed up that it won't work. My phone # belongs to someone else. My account # doesn't exist. I can't do anything without my PIN #, which they never gave me and won't because I don't know what it is. It would have been quite helpful when I received my phone to also receive information about Sprint, my plan, etc., but I never did. I don't know if that was Sprint's fault or LetsTalk. All I know is I am extremely upset. And it's funny, for someone with no account, I received my "overdue" notice in the mail today from my bill!

This looks like a fairly decent phone. Pretty color, the wording could be a bit bigger on the menus. Unfortunately, I have not been able to use it. Sprint screwed up my phone # (It all ready belongs to someone else) and now they are telling me my account doesn't exist. But they still want their $100! I simply will not pay for a service I am not receiving! I am going to try and switch carriers. This has been too much aggravation!

I really love the Sanyo SCP-8500. I was a Motorola product user for years, but I have to say I am now a Samsung convert. The battery seems to last forever. My last two phones could not make it through an entire day without being charged. The calls come through loud and clear. I live in a very hilly area and reception has been spotty in the past with other carriers, but has been perfect with Sprint. Overall I am very happy with my service and phone. So happy that I have been gloating to all my friends and family with different carriers and phones! Kudos to LetsTalk.com too. Easy transaction.

I really like the Sanyo SCP-8500 but it says in the description that it has push to talk, like w/walkie-talkie but no where in the book does it say anything about that... I like the camera! I love the speaker-phone! Voice is a little on the tinny side.. Wish the volume could be made deeper, not louder...

I love the design! People constantly comment on my Sanyo SCP-8500. It's gorgeous. Battery Life is average, I guess. 3 hours usage. I've had some dropped calls about three times, since I received it. Overall, I love it.
