Am I the only one who finds Sanyo's charging ports cheap and flimsy? I have had a total of 4 Sanyo phones, all with the same basic design, and every single one of them has ended up with a bad charging port. <br /><br />First, I had the PM-8200. I had my first one for < 2 months when the plug messed up. I would plug in the charger and hear the "beep" to let me know it was getting power. then it would been again, to let me know it LOST power. I'd go on and on with this till I finally gave up! I took the phone back to Radio Shack, and they gave me a new one.<br /><br />The second one lasted longer, but eventually ended up trash too. I had it too long to return it :(<br /><br />SO after that, I bought a different brand phone. I didn't like that phone, so I went back to another Sanyo. I thought surely they weren't ALL bad and I just had some crummy luck. <br /><br />Well, my luck didn't change bc the same thing is happening to my current phone! I was thrilled that my new Sanyo came with the wide plug instead of the pin plug. The guy at radio shack said the pin plugs were causing some problems, so this one should be better. Once the wide plug messed up, I began using the pin plug and it's messing up now too. <br /><br />My husband also bought a scp-3100 and had the same prob. So that's 4 phones with the same problem.<br /><br />So now for something positive.<br /><br />Pros: the phones work great, they do what the say they'll do, and reception is clear. All the different Sanyo phones I owned had different features... but I mainly used my phone to TALK. Besides my plug problem, I would have been happy with ALL of these phones! They don't take great pictures, but I have a nice digital camera for that so who cares.<br /><br />I am about to purchase a new phone when my vi-2300 dies completely...) i can still wiggle the cord and lay it down so carefully! and it sometimes keeps a connection!) I like the new Sanyo SCP-8400, and it has great reviews... dare I try another one?</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=21355#review21355 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=21355#review21355 Sat, 27 Jan 2007 02:54:47 GMT <p><i>danielson1824 submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>0</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have had this phone for almost 2 years. The phone was great the first year I had it. The second year showed the phones true colors. The first thing to happen is the pinhole charger went out. I went to a Sprint store to find out what to do. They told me that the PM-8200 was built with a fault pinhole charge port. I spent nearly 15 minutes every night messing with it so it would charge. Sanyo came out with a charger for the data port on the bottom of the phone to charge the phone. 3 months after the charger problem the END button quit working. I would have to sit and click it about 30 times before it would clear the screen. It was rather annoying. After that the phone quit shutting properly. There is something wrong with the little button at the top right of the keyboard where when pushed it shuts off the main screen and lights up the outer LCD screen. When you end a call with someone and shut the phone it doesn't end the call unless you push the top part of the phone from side to side. Not only that but it kills your battery in about an hour and a half. This phone has been nothing but trouble, I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone! Sanyo did a horrible job on this phone!!!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=20136#review20136 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=20136#review20136 Mon, 27 Nov 2006 15:41:44 GMT <p><i>xyzzy submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I bought this phone secondhand to use with Sprint in Philadelphia.

It is super rough i have it so so much and it has always been the same. The "Ready Link" is a plus along with the camera. The flash is ok but the camera it self is awsome. The life of the phone is not all good... but it can stand a while lets you where taking a 2hour trip without a charger you would be good. The phones T9 is AWSOME! I never have to type letter by letter! Over all im pleased with my phone. I would recommend the 8300(the newer one of the two) because of the video camera and the all around betterness.

It was all down hill from there. My second phone I only had a few months before it started shutting itself off when I flipped it closed (didn't matter how softly I closed it) and not getting as good of signal as it did at first (1/3 the time the phone is on it says "looking for service". Then my 3rd phone wouldn't send/recieve text messages, send/upload pictures, or go online. So, after that I went back and asked for a different phone, I was told that they can only exchange my phone for the same phone because they have it in stock. So I my 4th Sanyo PM8200! Which after about six-seven months has starting ONCE AGAIN shutting itself off when I flip it closed, losing signal, and "looking for service"... Now my 5th sanyo has once again started doing the same as the last and i must return to the sprint store for a 6th phone in less than 2 years!</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=16385#review16385 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=16385#review16385 Mon, 01 May 2006 22:23:22 GMT <p><i>sowhatsowhat10 submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>a few months ago i agreed to an agent plan that allowed me to purchase this phone for 40.00 bucks. understanding it was discontinued and replaced i wasn't about to buy an oughtright priced phone with a service i haven't tried myself. so i purchased and i have only minor complaints.<br /><br />PROS: <br /><br />readly link. sprints ptt solution isn't all that bad. in central pa it rocks.<br /><br />external display. on a phone this low in price you'd expect it to be cheesy but its actully pretty darn good.<br /><br />vision ready. it carries alot of sprints multimedia services. it a pm so its not as much as an mm phone but hey it still rocks.<br /><br />flashlight on camera. helpful when sticking the key in my door at home.<br /><br />CONS:<br /><br />battery life. to sum it up it SUCKS! it dies just looking at it for 3 hours let a long talking on it for 1 hour.<br /><br />keypad. i got this phone because sanyo was rated #1 by jd powers. now i know jd and his powers are overrated. THE KEYPAD BURNS! playing a game for 10 minutes then answering a call is a bad idea. TRUST ME!<br /><br />speakerphone. ready link works fantastic but having a conversation from the speaker phone is like beating blood from a penny with this thing. NOT HAPPENING!<br /><br />and to top it off sanyo's charging ports are cheap and flimsy. atleast moto's you can bootleg them to make them work.<br /><br />OVERALL:<br /><br />if you just talk sparingly on cell phones and thats it. this is a great buy. anything else i wouldn't do because the keypad will make you pay for it.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=16288#review16288 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=16288#review16288 Mon, 24 Apr 2006 01:22:29 GMT <p><i>bsxtech submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone served me well for almost one year. I use my phone a lot and evidently this one wasn't up the challenge. Recently I have been having problems with calls not coming through and going directly to voicemail. I believe the problem is due to the fact that I use my phone heavily in not the best of conditions.<br />Up until now I have never had any issues with dropped calls or lack of signal strength (Central NC).<br />If you keep your phone in your purse/pocket all the time and take very good care of it, then I'd say this phone would work well for you.

My last phone endured for 3 years. As I approach my 1 year anniversary of this phone, it started doing the strangest things. It turns its volume down, flashes the screen on and off, and won't respond to any commands. Was this just some sort of fluke? I put it on the charger last night after removing and reattaching the battery. It wouldn't turn back on after I did that. This morning, the exterior screen was flashing at me with voicemail. Weird. I decided to call it from the landline and now it works fine. I really liked this phone up until last night. I've had very few dropped calls, enjoyed the pics (flash makes nicer pics than other phones), and like the layout of the buttons. I'm concerned, because it seems that the life spans of the phones I buy are getting shorter and shorter. I never buy into the equipment plans, because you still have to pay a deductible on top of the monthly fee.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=15639#review15639 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=15639#review15639 Tue, 14 Mar 2006 07:29:08 GMT <p><i>Johndoe01 submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>3.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I've had this phone for a year now. I used to owned 2, 3 Sanyo phones and while I didn't have any real bad experience with Sanyo phones, I got a great deal when I renewed my contract so I went for it! The phone I got is metallic red so it's rare &amp; unique. Two things are I like the most &amp; also the most important are the reception &amp; the battery life, I don't care much about ringint tones or camera. But unfortunately, it also has 1 flaw that I hate the most about Sanyo phone: sound quality of the earpiece. Just like several people here mention: the sound will get distorted and muffled if you turn up the volumne. Most of the time, I just have my volumne at level 1 or 2 (max is level 8) and sometimes 3 but if I turned up to level 4 &amp; above the sound is really bad. I had a few Sanyon phones before so I know that my phone is not defective. Even the new model 8300 that I tested at stores also has this flaw. Would I buy Sanyo phone again in the future? Probably not! Don't get me wrong, every phone has its good &amp; bad like the Samsung phone doesn't sound natural, LG sounds too soft. My next choice would be either Nokia or Treo phone as I had them both before (Nokia 6225 &amp; Treo 300)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=15440#review15440 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=15440#review15440 Wed, 01 Mar 2006 16:33:53 GMT <p><i>mzkhandi submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1</b> (out of 5)</p><p>while the phone may be somewhat ok.. there are serious charging issues with this phone.

I got my Sanyo PM8200 in May '05' I had to replace it in Nov '05' do to the hinge breaking. Sprint replace to with a used phone of the same kind. Now it's Feb '06' and the same thing had happened again, the hinge broke. I thought I was hard on the first one even though I couldn't ever remember having dropped it. Well I can say for sure I have never dropped the second and it broke in the exact same place as the first. My opinion is it has a week hinge, it's a bad design. I now have to mess around with Sprint again over the same problem. Other things I noticed: ear piece jack not the best. Speaker should be used at a lower volume or it sounds distorted. Quite often the phone ends up on the Internet without my knowledge. I know the moral to the story is you get what you pay for but when you pay full price problems like this hinge thing just should not happen. I will be getting this phone replaced with different model ASAP</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=14290#review14290 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=14290#review14290 Wed, 04 Jan 2006 01:53:20 GMT <p><i>amandaelee submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>1.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>My boyfirend and i have had our 8200 phones for about 4 months now. At first we thought they were great. Sure the camera isn't the best and the speaker definately has problems above a certain volume but that didn't really bother us. Then came the big problem. Apparently after a little while the contact inside the small circualr charging hole goes bad. The phone will not accept the charger very well. We would plug the phone up and it would beep that it was charging we would set it down and it would beep that it had stopped. We would have to turn it, pull it in and out, and even still it would only charge for a few minutes. Somehow it strips itself. I have spoken to many other with the same issue. This problem would be the reason the 8300 is sold with the charger for the wide rectangular port. I just don't think this phone is worth having to buy and additional home/car charger just so it will work. Not to mention the stress the charging problem puts on the battery. So you'll need a new wall/car charger and a new battery very soon if you buy this phone. We were sooooo glad when samsung realeased the blade. We paid $350 for each happily just to rid ourselfs of the 8200.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=13390#review13390 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=13390#review13390 Mon, 28 Nov 2005 16:12:40 GMT <p><i>Mint87RX7 submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4</b> (out of 5)</p><p>I have had the phone for about 18 months and it has been a great phone. awsome capabilities with sprint if you want to pay for the services. the menus are very quick when you get used to them and the side buttons are nice to have. i think it takes decent pictures for a phone, if loaded to a computer you would see some fuzzyness but on the phones LCD they look great. my phone is brutally beaten when i have it, it is scratched, chipped, squeeks when i open it. i drop it daily and never hurt it. the only thing that has happened is when i plug in the charger it has to be at just the right angle or it wont charge. that and the speakerphone sucks.

I have also owned a Nokia 3560(Unicel A.K.A. Unihell.. Crap!!) I didn't like either phones.. They were just junk. <br /><br />Pros-<br />1) The great design. The antenna is great, gets better reception than anyother phone i have had. <br />2) The Camer is awesome.. I love the Zoom feature with the different Resolutions. The Flash also comes in handy most of the time. The Cool fun borders are awesome too. <br />3) The speakerphone is great.... Best i have ever had. Yes i admit it has alittle distortion when turned up too lud but what cellphone doesn't. Other than that awesome. <br />4) Also The Readylink and the voice command feature are great. Never seen any better. <br />5) The menu is extremely easy as well. <br />6) I like the little polarbear.. hes is great. <br />7) over all i love this phone.. Its the best i have ever owned. <br /><br />Cons-<br />1) Cant change menu from text to Icons.. Which isn't a big deal. <br />2) Also can't change the little buddy and get others. which isn't a big deal.. he amuses me.. and i dont think i would change him anyway.. lol <br /><br />Honestly i hope to hold onto this phone as long as i can. Maybe in two or three years it will finally die and i will be pretty sad to let it go. But hopefully the Sanyo 8300 will be just as great. If so.. there is a phone with my name on it. :P Also if they didnt pull this from my store.. i would be recommending it to all.. atleast for a beginniner phone.. :)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p> http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=508 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=11420#review11420 http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=508&r=11420#review11420 Thu, 18 Aug 2005 00:20:56 GMT <p><i>Clentfamily submitted this review of the Sanyo PM-8200 / SCP-8200:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>2.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>This phone is cheap.
