The Katana, or Sanyo SCP-6600, is a clamshell style mobile phone designed by Sanyo. It was released in the United States in the third quarter of 2006. The Katana was an "ultraslim" mobile phone with a design similar to the Motorola Razr V3. It would be followed by the Katana II in 2007 alongside the Katana DLX as a high-end multimedia capable variant of the Katana II. The Katana LX followed in 2008 with a much different design more focused on a unique reflective front hiding a monochrome OLED outer display underneath, followed again by the Katana Eclipse, which combined the looks of the Katana LX with the features of the Katana DLX including a color outer LCD.[4]
