Sanyo M1 Reviews
PCMag reviews the Sprint Power Vision Phone M1 and writes, “Music, video, and Java are all strengths here. … The built-in music player takes MP3 and iTunes M4a files (but not protected files bought from the iTunes music store), and it plays .M3u playlists you create on your PC. I wish it synced with Windows Media Player or iTunes directly, though. You can listen to music using the built-in 2.5mm headphone jack, with standard music headphones using the included 3.5mm adapter with built-in mic, or with Bluetooth headphones. Music sounded positively terrific to us, and Sanyo claims 18 hours of playback time.”
CNET reviews the Sanyo M1 and writes, “The highlight feature of the M1 appears to be its music player. Thanks to its 1GB of internal memory, the M1 can store up to 16 hours of music (or a combination of data, music, and images). Though we would’ve liked a microSD card slot for additional memory, the 1GB of memory should satisfy most users. You can either transfer MP3, AAC, and AAC+ files from your PC to the M1 or download tunes from Sprint’s music store. You can manage your playlists via the music store or create your own playlists on the phone itself. We loved that we could use our own earphones, thanks to a headset adapter. Audio quality was actually pretty good when heard through the earbuds, and even the stereo speaker sounded pretty decent.”
Yahoo Tech reviews the Sanyo M1 and writes, “One of the highlights of the phone are music controls on the front of the clamshell. The iPod-like wheel doesn’t have scroll features, but it works perfectly well. You can also play tunes by opening the phone and playing music from the standard menus. Stereo speakers are mounted directly above the external display on the front of the phone, and many songs come through quite loud. You can also, of course, listen through headphones. The phone includes 1GB of memory, which is good for about 220 songs (assuming you have no videos or pictures on the device).”
