Conclusion
The Sanyo Katana is a smashing phone for those who want a lot of style but don't need a lot of excess features. All the basic functionality is there, and it's wrapped up in a pretty package at that. With its expansive messaging and Bluetooth capabilities and its crystal-clear voice quality, this phone does a great job of keeping you connected.
This phone is not designed for technophiles or people who organize their entire lives through their cell phones – too many features are absent for this phone to appeal to those kind of users. It is designed for hip consumers who want all the standard communication features in a phone that achieves accessory status. In that effort, Sanyo fully succeeds, and I give them four stars for finding that place where form and function finally meet.
