Review: Sprint PCS Vision Phone SCP-3100

"Sanyo's SCP-3100 for Sprint (known officially as the Sprint PCS Vision Phone SCP-3100 by Sanyo) carries on the company's reputation for spectacular voice quality. Unfortunately, its mediocre feature set and truly hideous case design require me to recommend other phones in Sprint's midrange.
There's no polite way to say it: This is a very, very ugly phone. The black-and-white, text-only external screen lights up a garish orange color; the keypad lights, meanwhile, are a clashing green. The 128-by-160 main color screen seems a bit washed out. The front of the phone looks as if it has gills, and the plastic back has a definite Fisher-Price feel to it. Sanyo doesn't make beautiful phones, but this one takes the cake. Comparing it to LG's elegant PM-225 or Motorola's C290 makes the deficiency of its design even more striking.....
