    You know what this is? This is the direct spiritual successor to the 2014 Panasonic Lumix CM1. The absence of OIS is still a bummer just like in that seven-year-old smartphone, but I am definitely glad to see a smartphone with a proper 1" RGB camera sensor with a large native 2.4µ pixel size instead of the totally overhyped Quad Bayer or Nona Bayer sensor with tiny native pixel size. This may well be a Japan-exclusive smartphone, but I would definitely want to own one.

                        Waiting for the reviews, I don't think 240 Hz makes much of a difference. Also love the design, reminds me of the old Samsung Flagships with this single camera + sensor bar.

                          bro that screen is on steroids im telling ya

                            Again sharp,
                            Again maximum use of Available SoC,
                            Again neat and tidy to choose Camera and design,
                            Again a smartphone for the customers, not fanbase.

                            Good job Sharp and Sharply go ahead.

                                    Mobilemaster, 17 May 2021Asian, but not the other versions. Asia is only one continent. :)Considering Japan and Taiwan count for more than 50% of sales.

                                    I do not like when brands do it. Devices should be equal worldwide.

Even if it has the best main sensor it will still have a mediocre overall score due to the lack of zoom and ultrawide. You can basically forget about the overall score but read the review to see how the main sensor performs relative to the top dogs
