                gg, 20 Aug 2014Can i buy it around Europe? Do it work in europe?Unless you wanna import it from United States (make sure the phone is unlocked before), the Aquos Crystal probably won't arrive in Europe. Until right now, Sharp releases this phone only for Japan and United States. Yeah, the phone basically works if the CDMA carrier in your country uses same network frequencies as Sprint's.

                  Pretty cheap. I expected this to cost more than $300.

                          When this phone hit in India

                            Sharp is calling its technology "Direct Wave Receiving", which transfers sound through vibrations of display.

                            Kyocera introduced Tissue Conduction Technology over 2 years ago.

                            "When you hold a device to your ear or head, the sound bypasses the eardrum and puts those vibrations into your inner ear," said John Chier, Kyocera's director of corporate communications.
                            http://www.cnet.com/news/kyocera-unveils-its-new-audio-boosting-technology/

                            "Rather than operating with a traditional earpiece, the display itself vibrates to create sound waves. The end result is an aural experience that can be perceived with your facial tissues and bones. It dramatically improves perceived audio quality within noisy environments."
                            http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/07/kyocera-teases-bone-conduction-audio-technology-for-mobile-phone/

                            Later, in January 2013, Kyocera announced the Torque E6710, a device that utilizes its Smart Sonic Receiver. The receiver's a ceramic piezoelectric actuator that takes the place of a phone's speaker to let listeners hear phone calls in even the loudest environments. See (and hear) the results in the video below.

                            The Torque was released in March 2013.

                                  There is no ear-piece. It uses bone conducting. The whole screen is the ear-piece.

                                    global with WP that would be nice. And please don't start war again about WP lack of apps and so on... For me WP is better than Android. For most of you it's probably Android the right OS. But hey thank god that we people are different.
