        SuperSpruce, 16 Apr 2024I totally forgot these phones existed. Why are they not on ... moreThey're basically reskinned Sharp Aquos R8s, with added Leica filters. Those are in the database, but GSMArena doesn't have reviews of them, since they're not available outside Japan. :(

          Anonymous, 11 Apr 2024Considering the news that many Japanese people went for use... moreNot sure if those were used i phone 13 minis. I'm pretty sure telecom companies in japan hold on to their old i phone stocks so they can use them to get customers from other telecom companies to port in. they usualy give a huge discount to customers who port in from other companies (because 90 percent of japanese customers already have pospaid sims).

            I totally forgot these phones existed. Why are they not on the database? This company doesn't even have a tiny foothold on the market, and they are the only premium phones with 240Hz or expandable storage (other than Xperia, which might die any day).

              Please launch your phones worldwide. It will be a hit. Sharp should also consider selling all their phones worldwide which would be profitable for the company as well. Considering many people would like to buy these smart phones. Please consider tying up with online services like amazon and others. Hoping to see your phones in my country as well.

                Please make that cap with a magnet and a soft ring to prevent scratches, so that it can be safely and logically attached to the phone to prevent it from being misplaced. Love to see this in the US

                        I love Sharp products and Leica, but I would not buy this phone. I think the price is not justified.

                            Great device then 😁

It was too hard for them to add a damn 4x periscope zoom for example?
                                      I am curious of what Sharp is preparing for this year. In less then one month they will announce their new devices.
