New Sanyo Katana LX Cell Phone is a digital dual band CDMA phone that operates on Sprint’s 800/1900MHz network, and New Sanyo Katana LX Cell Phone has support for Sprint’s Vision for data. The phone has good reception and has never dropped a call in both well-covered areas and spotty coverage areas. The voice quality is actually very good and volume is loud through the earpiece and through the speakerphone.

New Sanyo Katana LX Cell Phone comes with a standard rechargeable battery that’s 840 mAh in capacity, a small bump from the 820 mAh on the Katana II. The battery is user replaceable and you can charge it using the included charger (120V). Battery life is very good since most applications on the Katana LX aren’t power hungry and the phone doesn’t support EV-DO. The claimed talk time is 4.8 hours and that seems to be on target. An extended battery can provide 7.4 hours of talk time, but neither Sprint nor Sanyo has it for sale yet.

New Sanyo Katana LX Cell Phone brings good looks to Sprint’s entry-level phone line. The mirrored, modern design in available in three colors and offers a basic feature phone package that includes voice dialing, a VGA camera, gaming, Bluetooth and aGPS. While the Katana LX is still a voice-centric phone, it does give you games, ringer and applications download over the air. But if you’re feature more than fashion consious, the Samsung M520 and LG Rumor on Sprint offer more for the same price.
