Other Brands' Cell Phone Reviews

Cell phone reviews for various smaller cell phone brands such as UTStarcom, Panasonic, Sanyo, ZTE and Sprint.
HTC Touch CDMA Review
In early 2007, when we started to hear about the HTC Touch, it was seen as a potential iPhone killer. But it is really only a PDA phone without a full keyboard. Its sluggishness and blurry pictures make it a cell phone a lot of users wouldn't even consider. But if you are craving for a lower priced iPhone-like device, you might like the HTC Touch's slim and lightweight design and good sound quality.
BlackBerry 8830 Review: A World-Class BlackBerry
The BlackBerry 8830 is a good choice for world travelers who need to be on a CDMA network at home but want to keep the same number while abroad and can't live without a BlackBerry device. Other worldwide travelers might prefer a smaller, more feature-rich regular GSM cell phone or another of the few cell phones that support both GSM and CDMA.
Review Of The UTStarcom Super Slice: Not So Super
The Super Slice may seem appealing with its thin form factor but you might be disappointed. But since it is offered by Virgin Mobile on a prepaid plan, if your focus is just to keep a cell phone handy for very occasional use, then you might like this one, with its thin, easily concealable, form factor.
Review Of The Palm Centro: The Treo Made Smaller And More Affordable
With its low price (launch price is $99 at Sprint), the Palm Centro is a great attempt to make Treo-like PDA phones accessible to more people.
ZTE D90 Review: One Phone, 51 Keys
The ZTE D90 ain't pretty but it has a comfortable design, a sturdy built. Once learned, the Fastap keypad represents a small advantage over predictive text input for texting. Sound quality was good.
Sanyo Katana DLX Review: A Great Phone With Strange Design Flaws
The Sanyo Katana DLX is lightweight and its basics are above average. Put aside a few minor design issues, the Katana DLX is a great cell phone for everybody.

Sanyo 8300 Review
My Sanyo 8300 Review, a modest cell phone, put aside a speakerphone system.
Panasonic ProMax EB-TX210 Review
Here is a Panasonic ProMax EB-TX210 Review, brought to you by your About.com guide to cell phones.
Siemens SL56
The Siemens SL56 is a lovely little cell phone with many possibilities and good battery life. The display and some software annoyances make it just slightly less interesting, but it's nothing major.
Siemens SX56 Review: sleek and classy for basic use
The Siemens SX56 has a lovely sleek and classy look that fits well in your pockets. Is it a good buy for you?
Sanyo SCP-5300 Review
The Sanyo SCP-5300 is a superior camera phone but only a regular cell phone.
Siemens CT56
The Siemens CT56 fits well the needs of those who like little phones that get the job done, with a speakerphone and reasonable battery life.
Sanyo SCP-4900
Bulkier but more feature-rich than the Hitachi P300, another Sprint PCS phone at the same pricing. Go for it if features are your priority.
Sharp/Verizon Z-800
Portable Entertainment guide Ric Manning reviews the Z-800 by Sharp and Verizon Wireless, a phone with a color display and downloadable games and programs.
Kyocera KWC 2255: A "Hot" Phone
The new Kyocera KWC 2255 is a great phone that is also disappointing on some aspects. Find out why.
Sanyo SCP-5000
Color screen phone and polyphonic ringtones make this phone a unique specimen in North-America. One of the best of the year 2001.
The Panasonic Allure EB-TX310: A Basic Phone With Extras
This nice little phone has many cool options, which makes it interesting, but it has some weaknesses too. I awarded it 3 stars out of 5. Find out why.
The Sprint TP5200
Small, convenient and fun, but Sprint should make it more clear wether or not (and how) their phones can be upgraded with programmable ringtones.
Sanyo SCP-6000
An impressive phone that will amaze your friends and colleagues and won't increase your body weight!
Kyocera QCP-6035
That Palm powered phone has a great advantage: a built-in palmtop computer. But the real downside is its size and weight.
Kyocera QCP-3035
Like Mr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, this phone has a good and a bad personality: very good features but with some flaws, in a bulky package.
Panasonic ProMax EB-TX210 - "The good deal"
In a small and light package, this phone packs T9 predictive text input for text messages, a speaker phone and a fair battery life.
