Let's get it out of the way now: Earpiece?
For me, two questions:
1) How does the speakerphone phone sound?
2) What's the UI like compared to past Sanyos?

What about the volume of the ringtones. Did he have any real ringtones playing? What filetypes supported? QCP, AAC, MP3? Video camera quality? Longer than 15 seconds? RELEASE DATE? (CAPS) :confused:

LOL ok guys so i know you all have a lot of questions i'll post what i found out:
1. And it looks exactly like the drawing that's been going around the internet? How about the hinge? Typical Sanyo?
The drawing is pretty much exactly how it looks.. silver front and inside.. blue leds for the keypad.. back is sort of black but not dark...speaker right about the caller id... led on the flip also doubles as the flash for the camera...Hinge is typical sanyo...clicks in place
2.How does the speakerphone phone sound?
3.What's the UI like compared to past Sanyos?
Speakerphone sounded just like the 5500 and the UI is tweaked a bit to be more user friendly... the icons on the main menu are just about the same but animate differently...you'll like the new UI compared to the current sanyos.. the 7400 actually has the same UI as the 5600...nice thing i like is the 7 shortcuts u can assign pretty much like the my menu feature in the toshiba..
4.Earpiece
From the test calls i made i would say the earpiece is an improvement over the current sanyos...again hearing is subjective...however it did sound closer to the earpieces found in samsungs then the current generation of sanyos.. = )
5. Ringtones
The phone supports AAC and QCP... it is pretty much just as loud as the current Sanyos not much change there.
6. Release Date
Sanyo is hoping to have it ready before year's end he couldnt give me an exact date.. sorry nothin new to report there
7. QVGA screen
Yes the screen is QVGA compared it to the Toshiba... personally i think the screen is just a little bit better on the Toshi... however it still looked great especially when watching the Multimedia = )
8. Video Camera quality
I was told that it would be VGA resolution however I doubt that... length of the video clip is limited to the amount of memory you have on your minisd card.... meanin if you have a 256mb card u can use all of that to video.
9. EVDO
Its said by the rep that the chipset the mm5600 will be shipping with will be capable of EV-DO as it can be easily upgraded to support the network when sprint rolls EV-DO out.. chipset is also midp 2.0 compatible
10. Price
Has not been decided yet
11. Internal memory
Did not check out the internal memory however it is confirmed that the phone will ship with a 16 mb minisd card
12. Other things of note:
The camera is still a CMOS camera... also the phone can be connected to a computer via USB connection as there is an actual menu option in the phone for it...sorry i didnt get to snap off pics of the actual live demo but i didnt feel like losin my job = )

CMOS is the older version of digital photography. CCD is the newer lens type. The only plus a CMOS has over CCD is that the CCD can sometimes gets discolored corners due to the electrical draw of the field through the lens, which leaves via the corner connections. CCD is quicker and better for clarity however.

This is almost entirely wrong. CMOS is not an outdated technology, in fact, CMOS is much newer than CDD, which has been around for almost 50 years. The image quality has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the chip-set is CCD or CMOS. Canon uses CMOS chips in almost all of their digital cameras, all the way up to their 6,000 dollar digital SLR bodys.
Furthermore, the lens has absolutely nothing to do with CCD or CMOS. They are two seperate elements. Discoloration in the corners of an image is known as "Chromatic Abberation", and is entirely due to the quality of the lens, not the imaging chip. There is no such thing as "electrical draw of a field through a lens".
CMOS are also not slower as you state. In fact, CMOS is much faster at image DSP processing, and actually draws less current during image processing. And once again, CCD versus CMOS has nothing to do with the image quality. Its all in the lens and imaging processor, and also related to the dynamic range (stops of light sensitivity from medium grey) of that particular sensor.
This is why CMOS is preferable to CCD in applications that require minimal current draw, such as a cell phone.

10-25-2004, 05:45 PM
See, with my 5500, my speaker serves its purpose and does it pretty well i might add. the only flaw with the 5500 is my case is the menu/screen. sanyo did not do a great job making the screen seem like a 65k color screen since you can see the lines inbetween the pixels on white menus and the icons arent too spiffy. so the QVGA screen on the 5600 sounds nice. other then that, i will be keeping my 5500 for a while.
Merlyn_3D
10-25-2004, 06:05 PM
A more relavent question would be if the speakerphone is full duplex. My 5500 speakerphone sounds excellent, much better than most other cell phones I or my friends have used, however, it's a bummer it's only half duplex.

It may support EV-DO but you know what they are going to do. Just like they did with the 5150 which was supposedly "capable" Vision, but they wouldn't let you upgrage. Any product thats capable of something that isn't out yet, usually will not be able to take advantage of the technology that comes out at a later date.
You know they're just gonna make us buy a Sanyo 5650 when the network's upgraded.

When I had my 5500 the speakerphone was useless too. With the 5500 I couldn't talk fluidly b/c of the plexity of the speaker. Now I know the speaker in my Treo600 is still half duplex, atleast thats what i've been told, so I wish they could make the speaker on the 5600 like my Treo600.
I can sit my treo next to me and talk to someone, and they don't even know they are on speakerphone. And I can talk like normal.

Compared to the Vm4500, how big is it in the palm of your hands? I hope it is slightly smaller or at least not bigger because in my opion the 5500 was kinda big. But I will take it no matter how big it comes. What about the leds? Are they colorful like the 5500? :confused:

Not necessarily... Remember that old Denso phone... the E271 or something? It was web capable several months before the wireless web was launched, and it worked like a charm when it did. Sprint doesn't make a dime on the phones (although Sanyo sure must...). I'm sure if Sprint announces that the phone is EV-DO compatible then they'll push Sanyo to release the sw upg when the time comes.

Well what about all the old 3G voice phones with wireless web released just before Vision...they would have been 3G data capable as well had a software update come out...A460, Sanyo 6200 (replaced with the 3G 6400 in the exact same form factor a few months later)...I can't remember any other 3G voice phones out around then but there were a few. Sprint had the capability of making them Vision capable but instead just had everyone buy new phones.
However Sprint could also upgrade the 5600 to EV-DO as it will be Sanyo's flagship phone for about a year. Also there is a big difference between a black and white phone and a phone thats already 3G capable and has the same features as the upcomming EV-DO phones.
So who knows? =P

I would be willing to bet that if the phone is ev-do capable sprint will make use of it. with 1xrtt there was a good reason to put the chip in the phone even without enabling packet data, 1xrtt voice doubled capacity on the network, improved coverage by 15%, improved standby battery life. ev-do does nothing but allow for faster data on the downlink. so if you did not intend to use it you would not waste the money for the higher end chipset.

Good point. I've had a feeling that the 5600 will support EV-DO. With the rollout being "soon" and the arrival of the 5600 "soon" they sort of fit together. The 5000 series phone usually supports Sprint's big new feature, 5300 was picture mail, 5400 was readylink, 5500 was readylink/videomail.
If the 5600 has an EV-DO chipset, it will probably use EV-DO on Sprint.

Thats kinda what I'm saying. Any phone that is EV-DO compatible will not come out until the EV-DO network is available in some form.
You also got to remeber how little things about certain standards can change over time. Thats why i think Sprint didnt't want to go through hassle of upgrading the Sanyo 5150, b/c i probably would have causes hardware and software problems. But like said above EV-Do is just faster data so ther 5600 probably will be data only capable since it shouldn't be as big as an upgrade as wireless web to vision.
We most likely won't run into the same delimma like we did going from WW to Vision until we go from EV-DO to EV-(voice and data)
JustinHoMi

Sanyo 6200 (replaced with the 3G 6400 in the exact same form factor a few months later)
I bought a 6200 when it came out, and the salesman specifically said that it was 3G voice only... and not data. I never had any false hopes that it would work any other way. The Denso E120, though, was advertised as being wireless web ready.
If Sprint or Sanyo advertise the phone as being EV-DO ready, then we can expect it to work as advertised in the future. If they don't say anything, then we'll just have to hope.

It would have be nice for Sanyo to have a CCD camera in the 5600 though.

this hopefully will end the discussion about the ev-do aspects of this phone, its suppose to launch in Jan/Feb. Ev-do will be up and running in Nov in select markets, and goes nationwide in Jan/feb (assuming the trials they do here in KC and a couple of other markets go smoothly). So yes the phone will be full ev-do. It will be launching along with audiovox's 8940 and at least 2 Samsungs that will all have ev-do.
I'm excited because I'll have my ev-do data card in a matter of weeks :hee:

A little more camera info for those who care to read :
CCD (charge coupled device) and CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) image sensors are two different technologies for capturing images digitally. While they are often seen as rivals, CCDs and CMOS imagers have unique strengths and weaknesses that make them appropriate to different applications. Neither is categorically superior to the other, although vendors selling only one technology often claim otherwise. The choice depends far more on the application...and the vendor.
Both types of imagers convert light into electric charge and process it into electronic signals. In a CCD sensor, every pixel's charge is transferred through a very limited number (often one) of output nodes to be converted to voltage, buffered, and sent off-chip as an analog signal. All of the pixel can be devoted to light capture, and the output's uniformity (a key factor in image quality) is high. In a CMOS sensor, each pixel has its own charge-to-voltage conversion, and the sensor often also includes digitization circuits, so that the chip outputs digital bits. These other functions reduce the area available for light capture, and with each pixel doing its own conversion, uniformity is lower. But the chip requires less off-chip circuitry for basic operation.
CCDs have been the dominant solid-state imagers since the 1970s, primarily because CCDs gave far superior images with the fabrication technology available. CMOS image sensors required more uniformity and smaller features than silicon wafer foundries could deliver at the time. DALSA founder and CEO Dr. Savvas Chamberlain was a pioneer in developing both technologies in the 1960s, and his leadership helped bring CCD technology forward. Only recently has semiconductor fabrication advanced to the point that CMOS image sensors can be useful and cost-effective in some mid-performance imaging applications.
CCDs offer superior image performance (as measured in quantum efficiency and noise), and flexibility at the expense of system size. They continue to rule in the applications that demand the highest image quality, such as most industrial, scientific, and medical applications.
CMOS imagers offer more integration (more functions on the chip), lower power dissipation (at the chip level), and smaller system size at the expense of image quality and flexibility. They are well-suited to high-volume, space-constrained applications where image quality is not paramount, such as security cameras, PC peripherals, toys, fax machines, and some automotive applications.
Costs are similar at the chip level. Early CMOS proponents claimed CMOS imagers would be much cheaper because they could be produced on the same high-volume wafer processing lines as mainstream logic or memory chips. This has not been the case. The accommodations required for good imaging perfomance have limited CMOS imagers to specialized, lower-volume mixed-signal fabrication processes. CMOS imagers also require more silicon per pixel. CMOS cameras may require fewer components and less power, but they may also require post-processing circuits to compensate for the lower image quality.
The larger issue around pricing is sustainability. Since many CMOS start-ups pursue high-volume, commodity applications from a small base of business, they must price below costs to win business. For some, the risk will pay off and their volumes will provide enough margin for viability. But others will have to raise their prices, while still others will go out of business entirely. High-risk startups can be interesting to venture capitalists, but imager customers require long-term stability and support.
The money and attention concentrated on CMOS imagers means that their performance will continue to improve, eventually blurring the line between CCD and CMOS image quality. But for the forseeable future, CCDs and CMOS will remain complementary. Each can provide benefits that the other cannot.

There is Voice and Data part. Sprint decided to just do Data only, hence "DO". The vioce part i believe is just for more bandwidth (phones on the network, maybe even better clarity on calls, not sure), so i can see why they would just do data only b/c I would assume they don't have too many customers yet.

I hope maybe they could take some tips from samsung. How much like the 5500 is it? Like does it have the icon menu and what is the buddy? ETC... Let me know. I hope that it is good because this anticipation is getting to me checking day to day when we are going to see more info about it and when it might be released. MAN I CAN'T WAIT. :eyeroll:

Thanks A lot bro i am really wanting that phone for its "rugged style" and cam.
yeah its basically the RL7300, but with added video cam, i got to touch it, he also mentioned that the speaker on the both models the 7400/5600 are full duplex, like the older model speaker phones, the recent sanyos have been 1/2 duplex, which you know of course means that if you're talking and someone else is talking at the same time the conversation becomes scrambled, we've had alot of customers bring them back cause of that, but once we've educated them, they were happy... I strongly believe in sanyo, everyone in my sprint store owns one, so, rock on!

:confused: the speaker on the both models the 7400/5600 are full duplex, like the older model speaker phones, the recent sanyos have been 1/2 duplex :confused:
What he said doesn't make sense. First he said, "the speaker on the both models the 7400/5600 are full duplex", then he said, "like the older model speaker phones, the recent sanyos have been 1/2 duplex"

I think what he meant that new sanyos have full duplex like the older model speaker phones, UNLIKE the recent sanyos that have been 1/2 duplex.
At least that's what I understood.
My 7400 comes on monday.

No. You are noob-material for 1 year. After 1 year, you are promoted to "janitor," and eventually work your way up to "reptile."
