Guide Review - Sanyo 8300 Review
The Sanyo 8300 is the follow up to a long series of feature-rich Sanyo phones for Sprint: most of the latest features, not too much bells and whistles
but a good productivity tool. Battery life was satisfying and sound was good. Earset volume was nice and the speakerphone was ok.
The camera has a flash, which makes an interesting difference in some situations. I also found the form factor functional
and sturdy.
However, the flat keypad doesn't really measure up to the great keypads of some Samsung or LG phones, not as straightforward to use but I've seen worse. Other than that, there is not much to say against the Sanyo 8300, a quite good phone for a wide range of users.
