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 ❤

                I'm liking the designs. Just the right amount flair. Kinda why I also like Sony's no BS Xperia looks.

                Sharp should really go full international though as this Aquos line are still a resellers' import in my country Malaysia.

                    Pretty intriguing for the R9, if i had the money id get it

                        R9 looks good. They fell short with no telephoto but 7+ Gen 3 and 240hz refresh rate makes up for that.

                          So not even Sharp makes small phones anymore

                            R9 to have 3 camera Setups with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

                              The R9 looks pretty good
                              Would love to see them globally, just to spice up the competition

                                240hz refresh rate is insaaaane. Actually interesting.

                                  Sharp makes excellent phones. They're no inferior to Sony, except in popularity. I've used a few of their flagship phones, and they left me impressed for the most part. It's unfortunate that these phones don't usually launch in foreign markets.

                                    About pricing will be JPY100,000≒$645
                                    Also,not to announce the pro model now due to the exchange rate.
                                    If remove the defective proprietary display and leica license, it should be much cheaper.

                                      Isn't the wish series supposed to be compact? Bit odd

                                        Worst looking Sharp phones yet, sad to see.
