Very lightweight; High resolution screen for the price; Sprint ID packs let you personalize phone...Sluggish performance; Slow data speeds; Glossy display kicks back glare; No multitouch support...The Sanyo Zio, available from Sprint for just $99.99 with the requisite two-year contract, is one of them...The Zio offers a relatively high-resolution screen for the price, but overall...

Sanyo Zio Review - Android Phone Reviews by MobileTechReview
The attractive and slim Zio weighs just 3.7 ounces and it has a few high end specs too...Sprint includes a 2 gig microSD card in the Zio's easily accessible slot on the side, but no wired headset...Kyocera bought Sanyo in 2008, and some folks refer to the Zio as a Kyocera product, but the branding from box to phone is pure Sanyo...Our first impression of the Zio...
