Amazon.com Product Description
Make a statement with the Sanyo Innuendo for Boost Mobile, which stands out from the crowd with its curvy profile and distinctive blue color. It conceals an external dial pad that glows through the phone's mirrored finish--which then disappears when not in use--and it flips open at its side to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard. It's an excellent value when paired with Boost's $50 Monthly Unlimited plan featuring no hidden fees and no contracts required. And you'll save money the longer you stick with Boost Mobile, with your monthly payments lowered by $5 for every six on-time payments.
In addition to fast 3G speeds, you'll enjoy GPS navigation capabilities for accessing the optional Sprint Navigation turn-by-turn direction service. And this phone comes with Sprint's intuitive Sprint One Click interface, which allows you to customize the phone with the things you use most like, including e-mail, TV, music, GPS navigation, and Web with Google Search.
Other features include a 3.2-megapixel camera/camcorder, microSD memory expansion (with included 1 GB microSD card), Bluetooth for hands-free devices and stereo music streaming, access to both personal and corporate e-mail, threaded text/picture messaging for easy back-and-forth conversations, and up to 4.5 hours of talk time.
Vital Statistics
The Sanyo Innuendo weighs 3.8 ounces and measures 4.1 x 2.2 x 0.6 inches. Its 860 mAh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 4.5 hours of talk time. It runs on Sprint's 800/1900 CDMA/EV-DO Rev. A frequencies.
What's in the Box
Sanyo Innuendo handset, rechargeable battery, charger, quick start guide
Sprint's Award-Winning One Click Interface
This phone features Sprint's One Click navigation interface, which places eight shortcut tiles along the bottom of the home screen. Instead of navigating through endless phone menus, you can put the things you use the most--features like call logs, texting, Web access and GPS navigation--right up front with instant information related to each feature. For example, when you scroll to text messaging, you'll see the number of new messages received and a single click takes take you to the newest messages. Here's how it works:

It offers nationwide service on the Nationwide Sprint Network and Nextel National Network, reaching more than 278 million people, with no activation or long-distance fees.
Plans include:
$50 Monthly Unlimited for unlimited nationwide talk, text, web, 411, and e-mail with no contracts. Voicemail, long distance, and call waiting included. And you'll reduce your monthly payment the longer you stay with Shrinkage. |

Recharge at least once every 90 days to keep your account active (after 90 days any credit balance will expire).
|
Pay As You Go gives the freedom to pay by the minute. All nationwide calls and texts are one convenient rate of 20¢ per minute or 20¢ per text message. You can also add other services such as Internet access (50¢ per day with unlimited usage) and e-mail (99¢ per day with unlimited usage).
International Connect provides unlimited international talk and text with family and friends around the world. It can be added to Monthly Unlimited and Android Monthly Unlimited plans for an additional $5 per month, and added to the BlackBerry Monthly Unlimited plan for $10 per month.
Boost Shrinkage
All Monthly Unlimited plans include Shrinkage and unlimited nationwide talk, text, web, e-mail, and 411. Shrinkage reduces your payment by $5/month for every six on-time payments, up to $15/month in total. Monthly Unlimited shrinks to as low as $35/month, Android Monthly Unlimited to as low as $40/month, or $45/month for BlackBerry Monthly Unlimited.
On-Time Payments
On-time payments are made on or before the monthly payment date. Your monthly payment date remains the same every month as long as you successfully make your monthly payment. However, if you make a late payment, your payment date will be reset to the day of the month before the date your service is restored (e.g., if your service is restored on February 15th, your monthly payment date will be reset to March 14th).
Missed Payment
While it's best to make regular on-time payments each month, payments do not have to be consecutive. If you miss a payment you don't have to start over. The on-time payments made to the account will still be available as well as any savings milestone achieved.

Sanyo Innuendo Prepaid Phone (Boost Mobile) Reviews
14 of 15 people found the following review helpful: Amazing phone, these reviews are ludicrous., This review is from: Sanyo Innuendo Prepaid Phone (Boost Mobile) (Wireless Phone Accessory) My friend has recently purchased this phone after I told him how great boost mobile was (at least in my area). He got this exact model phone for a little bit more than what I'm seeing it on Amazon for but the quality of this phone blew me away. The first time he called me I thought he was calling me from his house phone because of how unbelievably clear it was. Yes, at first I thought even though it was an expensive phone there is no way it could have quality equivalent to a phone available to sprint, version, or any of the other more popular cell phone companies customers. I was wrong, very very wrong, the phone was just as good as any other provided by the pre mentioned phoned companies.I started to use the phone, and the FIRST thing I noticed was how accurate the touch screen on the front of the phone was. The buttons on the inside of the phone also felt amazingly comfortable. For the people complaining about it smudging...what do you expect? Don't complain...

I will start off positive, I liked the size of the phone and that fact that the screen was larger than it's former counter part the Sanyo Incognito. I like that the earphone door and adapter door fit nicely in place every time. The camera is nice does really well without a flash. Ok now for my dislikes, the keyguard button doesn't work, so I tend to hang up on people when i hold the phone to my face. I usually us a hands free device and keep the phone in my pocket, still hangs up on people. It's frustrating I had the sanyo incognito before this one, and the keyguard feature worked great, so I am not sure what they did on this phone to screw it up but it is. Also the back light tends to go out and not come back on sometimes, even when it's fully charged. And when I was using the telenav program the phone cut off quite a few...
