>> I'm Nicole Lee, associate editor for CNET.com, and this is the Sanyo Katana LX for Sprint. As you can see, it's a very, very reflective phone right here. It is the successor to the Sanyo Kantana 2 from last year. And it is very different from all the other Kantanas. It has a very slim, streamline look, a very reflective surface. There's also a new translucent OLED display on the front here. On the side, you get a volume rocker, a dedicated camera button, and the charger jack. Open it up and you'll find a -- kind of a lackluster display. But that's okay for an entry-level phone like this. You get 65,000 colors so, you know, it's a little bit dull looking. On the bottom you get a dedicated camera button, a speakerphone key, and the regular navigation keys. The key pad is kind of flat. The keys are very slippery. They're kind of hard to press, but you know, it was okay for a phone at this price range. Features of the Kantana LX include Bluetooth, GPS; it's also a speakerphone, vibrate mode, very basic features. There's also a VGA camera up top here. So overall, for $49.99, it's a pretty good deal for Sprint. My name is Nicole Lee. This has been the Sanyo Kantana LX ^E00:01:15
