Sanyo 2300 Photos

[MosaicNate]

Here they are!

[Felicia]

ooooh nice!

[CoreyTheGent]

Certainly much better than the v200, as I suspected.

Somebody over at HowardForums says the 2300 is featured in the newest Maxim, not the one on stands but the May issue which has already been mailed to subscribers.

[tkrandall]

Here they are!

Give us more! :) When will we see it released?

Did you have a chance to play around with the menus, etc?

[Marlon_JB2]

Now THAT'S a blue I'd REALLY WANT. Wish my 8200 was that color.... hmm.... can the cases be swapped with tiny modifications? :hee:

yea it was scanned and posted a week or two ago here in another thread.

[CoreyTheGent]

It looks very classy. It seems like there's a different type of material around the edge, more along the likes of that 8100 glossy blue.

Where's that supposed scanning from one or two weeks ago? I sure can't find it.

the ad fine print says available at Best Buy after 5/15........

[CoreyTheGent]

Well, no wonder I didn't see it. It was in the v200 thread.

This design has exceeded my expectations. It looks more like the 8300, though for that phone they wouldn't have been able to go so cheap on the outer display. Can't understand why the v200 wouldn't just look like this, minus the LCD. Then again, I would've just dropped the v200 altogether.

[G-Unit_4900]

so the battery life on this thing shold be great ala' the candy bar 4000 series?

[sprintboy01]

does anyone know a price?

[Bumble]

does anyone know a price?

189.99

I wish they'd just go ahead and release more formal info on it, after all, there is the ad in the magazine already!

[CoreyTheGent]

Since the VI-125 is also fully priced at $189.99, I assume the VI-2300 will also be $9.99 with a 2yr contract?

[KevinS281]

It will be available in 6 colors. There's more info for ya ;)

Kevin

[KevinS281]

$189.99 - $150 = $39.99

Kevin

[CoreyTheGent]

Ah, yes. I was calculating the $30 web special.

[KevinS281]

Figured as much.

And the other 2 are............???????

[CoreyTheGent]

Green and Red?

[flipn0tic]

This was discussed in another thread... I remember one of them being a darker blue. Not sure about the other one.

[KevinS281]

Forest Green and a Crimson/Maroon color.

Hey, it's a nice re-application of the 8200's original shell.

Sorry tu tu, this is a 2300 thread. Take your a820 elsewhere.

Hopefully the op can post some photos of the phone with the flip open so we can see the dial pad.

[DEN]

your right, I shouldn't have posted that.

as for the front photos, 05/07/2005 is when they will be on Gullfoss

I wanted to see the v2300 opened as well, but with nothing there, the most you can picture is an 8200/v200 opened since it's supposedly the same exact design with a different exterior.

[goddess9]

Wow, nicer than I expected!

[BigSteve]

I hope the backlit will be blue and not plain old green!

[Tarbash]

nice...I like the blue color

[tkrandall]

sorry, but what is Gullfoss?

[lennyj17]

I know these are suppose to have vision, but i cant remember if i saw a RL button or not on the side of the phone.................

[Jaggrey]

sorry, but what is Gullfoss?
The FCC page.

[tkrandall]

The FCC page.

Oh yeah, thanks, I go there from time to time, just did not "connect the dots."

they are saying release date next week. If correct, what does that mean in terms of store availability?

[Halo2Proz]

I'm pretty sure it will be green keys...and it looks just like the V200

[CoreyTheGent]

I think Steve was referring to the backlighting of the outer LCD.

[Black Ice]

I just bought it today. i got the gray one as the sprint store i was in onlt had the blue and the gray one.. very nice phone, i havent really had a chance to play with it have to charge it up.

[RattDawg]

Keep us posted. Are the keys blue, green, or orange like the front lcd. Man orange would be kewl.

[BigSteve]

Why not make a complete post after you check the phone out. I feel like you are pulling my leg with this one. Play with the phone, use the ready link, check out the speaker phone, makes calls and come back with the update. ;)

[Black Ice]

Will do, the keys have the green backlite.
