Sprint has announced the Sanyo Katana Eclipse X, a better version of the already released Katana Eclipse. What’s better? Sprint’s One Click interactive user interface will let you customize the phone’s home screen as you like. Add shortcuts like Sprint’s Now Network or anything that’s on your favorite list.

The Eclipse X has a unique illumination feature which will let you assign lots of lightning schemes to incoming calls, SMS messages and alerts. Besides that, here are the rest of this Eclipse’s features:

• 2.0 inch TFT internal display with 176 x 220 pixels
• 1.0 inch external display
• GPS & Sprint Navigation
• Sprint Mobile Email
• Sprint TV
• Sprint Music Store
• MP3 player
• Stereo Bluetooth
• Wireless Backup
• 1.3 MP camera with video recording
• 256MB MicroSDHC card

The Eclipse X will be available for $99 with a two-year Sprint agreement.

Sharp as its name suggests in features, the Sanyo Katana has finally landed in front of Sprint’s doors. Customers can now enjoy the Katana Eclipse’s dazzling lighting effects and Sprint’s high-speed broadband network for just $100. Users can assign 40 different illuminations for the numbers in their 500-entry phone book and this Sanyo clamshell will light up just the way they like when that person calls or messages them. The lighting aside, the Sanyo Katana is also capable of turn-by-turn GPS navigation, has dedicated music controls, and supports Sprint Radio for up to 150 channels. Along with other features like Bluetooth and microSHDC support for up to 8GB, it also sports an internal 2-inch 65k color TFT LCD display and an external 1-incher for quick access to the media player or a glimpse of who’s calling. The 1.3-megapixel camera is in no way a digicam replacement but it should be enough for those situations when the urge to capture something is overwhelming.

Available now on Sprint for $99.99 with a two-year contract.
