Just bought a Sanyo MM-8300. I couldn't be patient

**Cam** · 08-13-2005, 06:23 PM

Went to sprint store this morning to have them fix a problem on my Nokia 3585i (alarm stopped working). So I dropped the phone off came back got the phone back and the guy is start asking me if I'm happy with my nokia. I'm like its okay. Then he go to explain to me that I can upgrade my phone. Then he took me by the free phones and then. I asked him which are the best phones to have. He told me that all the employees use the sanyo's So he shows me the sanyo's and I'm looking at the 8300 and he says that this is the newest sanyo that they have.

So I went ahead and took the plunge. Now I did ask about newer phones coming out but he said that he didn't know of anything coming out real soon. So I guess I'm going to play with the 8300 until the last minute of the 14 day trial and maybe go back and try something else.

How are the people who own the 8300 enjoy their phone? My hands are long so I don't know if I will like the phone. But my phone doesn't work now. So I guess I'll have to call customer service to find out what is wrong.

Now I'm wondering if I should've waited.

I think it`s okay because I upgraded from a 5500, but I`m thinking of selling it so I can buy the LG 535.

Has any customer rep told you that you can charge a new phone to you bill? I was told that yesterday when I was in the store I was like what

I didn't know that was possible. I almost told them to just charge it to my bill. But I went ahead and paid for it. I never heard of that. The Rep I was dealing with was the manager and he said because of my rating with company I would be able ot add it to my monthly bill. I have to find out if its the same for accessories.

I have purchased my last 3 phones this way. You must pay it in full when your bill comes in though. I have also bought accessories this way.
