08 May 2024
Aquos R9 opts for a midrange Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chip and a trio of 50MP cameras with Leica optics.

Sort by:

looks like the type of thing i can model and I cant model lmao

    God these are some really ugly looking phones.

      Unfortunately only Sony in Europe.
      Sharp stay in Japan (&Asia)
      Panasonic mobiles are no longer sold (a few very simple senior models)

        The back design is... Pretty japanese i would say. Pls release it globally!!
        And make it cheaper than r8, i mean it has downgraded soc in it. 👀

              The Wish4 has a headphone jack on top. The R9, alas, does not have one on top or bottom, otherwise it looks nice.

                Whackcar, 08 May 2024Sharp makes excellent phones. They're no inferior to S... moreAs decent Sharp phones are, they cannot compete with the Chinese in many markets.
                Also, Sharp software is pretty basic, close to stock Android. That means it doesn’t have features that people are accustomed to. Heck, it doesn’t even have its own voice recorder nor weather apps (outside Japan). No twin apps, no call recording. Stock Android fans might like it, but general public would be disappointed.

                  Other makers should make sharp corners phones like this and the Nubia!!!

                      Anonymous, 08 May 2024… until you hold itNo problem with that to be honest. I really prefer boxy designs, but they are rare and/or present in very expensive models nowadays.

                              yeah last year r8 is overpowered while having r8 pro on same line up so this processor is better. also last year aquos sense 8 is quite successful than xperia

                                  The green reminds me so much of the lumia that came out with that color

                                    Anonymous, 08 May 2024Make it available in my country and it definitely gets my money 🤩You can get used Sharp Docomo or Au sets for pretty cheap. Just need to wait a few months after launch.

                                    Sharp selling new phones only in Japan primarily through carriers, so you can pay a small fortune to get an unlocked new R9 imported if you have the budget.

                                      The previous models had processors that were so pointlessly powerful that users could not handle them, and the prices soared abnormally high and did not sell at all. This level of processor is sufficient.

                                        wow.... cleeeean design ❤
