LG Muziq / AX-565 / UX-565
LG muziq or KATANA dlx
I was at the sprint store today and i saw both phones. i dont know what to go for. any help????
...
I have read reviews on both phones. i still dont know what to go for. I have a SANYO 8400 now, and i want upgarde.
...
I have the muziq and all though not a perfect phone, it really is nice and continues to grow on me while most phones I end up buying I end up bored with in days.
...
I have the same question.
I looked at both tonight at the store..
I really do like the dlx.
I also like the Muziq.
I see bigger keys on the Muziq easier for texting and all that.
However I don't know which has better reception and I hear things about the battery life on the Muziq being bad.

i got the Katana DLX. My Brother bought the LG MUZIQ and i dont like it at all. Battery quality sucks, and he has to charge eveyday, and i dont. Well stick with the Katana DLX.

The muziq has bigger keys but offers zero tactile feedback so texting isn't as easy as you would think.
Reception is a non-issue. Pretty even between both phones.
Battery life for the muziq is not great. I have had 2 of them but the battery life was very different between both the phones. The first I had to charge every 12 hours with minimal use. The second I charged every day and a half with the same amount of use.
Definitely a quality issue at the factory.
The DLX battery is decent. 2 days with the same useage.
The one issue I had with the DLX was the call quality. To me it was very staticy and tinny.
The overall volume(ear piece, speakerphone, ringer) on the muziq was very low. I didn't like that at all.

Well things sound mixed......
I played with both phones at the store and I felt the buttons on the DLX were to small and I'd end up hitting wrong keys especially when texting. Where as the Muziq I felt they were big enough to not have that issue and it felt to me that the buttons were responsive enough to feel a key press.
My main concerns will be volume, sound quality, signal strenght and battery life.
I do have to say if the Muziq didn't have external media controls then I'd have not gave it a second look.
I guess I will have to compare the Muziq to my current Verizon phone as a guide to how well i'm pleased with it.

I currently own the muziq and have been very pleased with it. Battery life has never been an issue for me. I have enjoyed many of its useful features. Especially the email push. The only thing I wish was better about the phone is the speaker phone. Just could be a little louder. I don't really care for the music player, but I know that was Sprints doing. I hope you enjoy your phone...

I just got my phone Muziq today.
So far from just walking in my house with it before I put it on the charger i've noticed
that I go between 3-4 bars.
My Verizon phone is anywhere between 1-3 and sometimes I see the roaming message on it.
I am charging both my phones now (verizon phone and the Muziq)
After 9 tonight I am going to call one phone from the other and let them go to see how long it will take for the batteries to drain.
I am hoping the Muziq is as good as my Verizon phone. If so then it will be a possitive.
Then I will check call, signal, audio quality.
My gf just got the DLX and she is letting me know how hers is as time goes on.

I just went through the book and found something interesting.
Despite the specs you read online saying the phone has up to 4 hours of digital talk time.
The book says up 130 minutes. 2 hours and 10 minutes. This may be why so many are complaining about battery life.
If this holds true I will probably not be holding on to this phone for that long.

Well I've got to play with my phone some more.
I got about 4 hours 20 minutes of talk time out of it. Like a few minutes less than my VX-8300.....
I tested time by calling one phone from the other. I was worried at first cause the battery bars on the MUZIQ would drop off quicker than the VX-8300.. However once the 8300 got down to 2 bars on the phone they dropped off quicker and to my surprise the low battery indicator on the MUZIQ came on about 2 minutes before the 8300.
Now I will test the standby time to see how often I have to charge it.

im pretty sure we all know how the katanas work,like the razrs, dlx or not, crappy, im a tech rep for sprint i fix those phones on a daily basis, there unreliable and flemsy, the musiq however, its a decent phone with a good look, and the music player is a deff bonus, but it also has its flaws, over all id go with the musiq cause the katana line of phones is bad.
