    If the screen was in the middle of the device, that big hole wouldn't be needed.

        AnonD-709529, 21 Oct 2017Dude are you on crack? What do you mean a slight difference... moreI was using G-Sync, and there is only better response time when moving around in games. I don't see any good for putting a 120hz in a 4.9" smartphone, small is unnoticeable

          Skroo the notch and skroo the rounded top corners of the LCD! Do not buy this phone. Do not encourage this hideous poor design. Teach them a lesson, bombard them with hate and boycott instead!

            Sharp need to hire better design as its design is worse than its own customer.
            Xiaomi MiMix and Essential especially that use the exact same screen and still looks better than this.

After switching to 144 from 60 the difference is night and day. Everithing is more fluid , even moving the cursor and dragging windows on the desktop, not to mention the low latency games. Keep these comments to yourself dude, you clearly have brain lag

                Anonymous, 21 Oct 2017at least sharp begins to innovate after foxconn acquisition... moreAre you referring to Sony, Fujitsu or Panasonic?

                  Luxor, 21 Oct 2017So, 120Hz display going to make a difference why?Seriously like what are they even doing? Putting high refresh rates on a small screen u ain't gonna notice any difference, and I tried comparing a 60hz monitor to a 144hz gaming monitor, and only noticed a slight improvement like slightly more stabilized which means clearer when playing games like CS:GO, even a screen that big only can notice a slight difference

                    Japan tech still leading in innovation, fujitsu was the first mobile got iris recognition

                      Thank God someone is thinking of us, the ones that can see all the bad motion blur everytime I scroll in my phone. Owning a 144hz lightboost (or umb as they call it now) monitor I will certainly be interested in this one.

                      Display technology should always move forward, I hate it when people say that 1080 is enough. I feel they haven't seen a proper 4k or 2k 165hz monitor or even better a full RGB 10bit color monitor. The difference is like night and day.

                            Big Daddy, 21 Oct 2017LoL, thats a one big bezel at the bottom and that front cam... moreThere is a reason why it's called 3-way bezzelless design...

                              Big Daddy, 21 Oct 2017LoL, thats a one big bezel at the bottom and that front cam... moreSo you only noticed the bottom big bezel while ignoring how bezel less is the top.
                              Good job of firing designers.

                                  It's a shame it's a SoftBank exclusive.
                                  I think there's a niche market for an affordable compact.

                                    This is exactly the type of sub 5" compact phone we'e crying out for in the West. Bring it here dammit!
