Sanyo S750 3G Phone Review

30th March , 2005 ( see below for all today's 3G news )

Europe : This is a review of the 3G Sanyo S750 handset and was undertaken in March, 2005 by Kevin Thomas of 3G.co.uk.

My first impression of the Sanyo S750 - oh that's better when you slide the phone open it hides the 24mm external aerial. Brushing the aerial issue aside, this is a stylish phone with stylish looks.

Of course, this is the first ever Sanyo mobile phone to be sold in Europe and yes its a 3G mobile. The Sanyo S750 is available exclusively via Orange.
