Battery drain about 10% over night (9 hours). Flightmode on though. Anyone else noticed this?

        Ordered mine from via zenmarket (thanks for the tipp btw). I had to pay important fee (115 euro) which hurt me a lot, but the smartphone itself cost 57k yen (Yahoo auction), which is a affordable price for me. Destination is Germany.

        And what should I say? I'm loving it. Coming from the compact series of the xperias the Sharp feels more compact as the xz2 compact. The thickness bothered me the most, this one feels light and smooth in my hand. Dimensions are near perfect, no useless frames on the beautiful screen finally.

        Screen is awesome, but less bright than the xz2c (which doesn't bother me at all). It's a beautiful phone which feels nice in my hand and is way less slippier than the xz2c. It's my first notch-phone but surprisingly the notches are barely noticeable (for me).

        Coming from the xz2c only downside for me is the mono sound. It's a bit quieter than the xz2 and not stereo. But that's it.

        Battery brings me through my day easily so no complains about that.

        Very nice phone I'm quite happy.

              Yucca, 18 Jun 2019https://www.frequencycheck.com/models/vnMKx/sharp-aquos-r-c... moreCouldn't find it there frankly, it doesn't seem to list R2 compact at all.

                Which LTE brands does the international version support? I couldn't find it anywhere.

                  Nice little smartphone. Dimensions are perfect and the notches don't bother me even though I thought they would. The Aquos take on Android doesn't support multiple users for some reason. That was a pretty big disappointment.

                    You can easily buy this phone using services like a Zenmarket (Google it)
                    There is a two versions on a Japanese Yahoo auctions: one is officially unlocked operators phone (SoftBank operator https://jp.shar p/products/aquos-r2-compact/index.html) and a second is intentional a sim-free version (sh-m09 model https://jp.shar p/products/shm09/index.html).
                    The difference between two is only a color variants and additional operator a specific applications.

                        Hi,
                        Could someone who has this phone check what level of Camera 2 API it supports ? (legacy, limited, full, level 3)
                        And also if it supports RAW format photos ? (RAW capture)

                        The above can be checked on the phone with the app "Camera2 API Probe" (free on PlayStore).

                        Thanks.

                          Is this available in the USA? Having a hard time finding a small phone out here.

                              Hi guys. I'm interested if people could tell me about the camera data rate and performance? The 845 chipset supports 4k 50fps. I'm interested in putting together a little camera rig, and there is no modern compact phone with this sort of power.

                              What's is the maximum data rate you can use at 4k 25/30/50/60fps? (File size divided by seconds of length). Advanced camera software like open camera can sometimes unlock more advanced modes lime this (but you have to check the actual data rate, resolution and frames per second in viewing software file information feature, as open camera will still tell you you are doing it when it can't).

                              Does it support 25/50 fps 4k/uhd?

                              How is it in very low light?

                              Anybody know which sensor or dynamic range it has?


                              Thanks for anybody who can help.

                                  For me it's the perfect phone. I'm coming fron an XZ1 Compact, which has too little on board storage and no OIS. The Sharp's design makes it feel even smaller and thinner. I have yet to test the camera. The app is a little clunky and slow, but image quality seems solid.

                                  I'm OK with the battery, it does get me through a typical day and I have plenty of opportunities to top it up during the day if needed.

                                    These are comparable in a universe of COMPACT size (13.5x7), and obviously not in a universe of top-notch specs and $$$ pricetag.-

                                      If this had a larger battery I would probably try to import one to Canada.
