Sharp Aquos Xx - User Reviews

  • anybody knows how bright is the screen in nits? cheers.

  • Need honest review about sharp aquos Xx

  • It does get insanely hot when you play games on it battery backup is around 6 hrs of heavy use

  • Who named this phone? :D

  • Hey, int2k, the big numbers that say 3000mAh, are how long it lasts, let me explain what the numbers mean 1000: Horrible, will not last you even 1hour, 2000: Lasts around 4-5 hours 3000 (This Phone): Lasts around half a day-a day of use. 4000: Really close to a full day! 5000: More than a day (Rarely find this!)

  • Hey, have anyone used the phone, could you tell me: Is the battery good? How long can it last watching video/playing video game continuously? Does the phone get hot like sony z5?

  • the wallpaper reminds me of those ladders you had to climb up in school

  • You can buy this, or other Japanese devices. Visit kyoex.

  • yeah but sharp isnt avalible almost anywhere

  • Yes there is Nougat available but only for NTT Docomo ver. (SH-03G) and KDDI au.

  • Just a question people. Will not it be up-gradable to android nougat? The processor and the RAM can handle android nougat surely. Could they upgrade this phone? I consider to buy one. It is pretty unique and I have never seen someone here in the Philippines using that weirdly beautiful phone. Where do I buy? I do not see this phone in any mall here in the Philippines.

  • Sharp has some cool stuff coming out in 2017.

  • I would like it to come back too.

  • My father was a technician in Sharp company in Lebanon . the company now closed . It was one of the best electronics in Lebanon now it isn't . I hope it will come back again .

  • I know the answer brother! Visit kyoex dot com. They sell a lot of unlocked Japanese phones.

  • They where testing it but the hardware was not that great for the cost like the screen actual flexed if you pressed to hard and scratched super easy! Also people do not like to buy phones from companies that are not well know for it which is why most unknown companies start off with cheap but decent phones then expand into the higher end market just think of any Chinese phone maker as an example!

  • wondering how/where to get Sharp unlocked mobile phones outside Japan??

  • I agree, but they did a beautiful job with the ceramic case and the 4,000 mAh battery, now al it needs is make it only wireless charger, only wireless earphones, fingerprint reader ON the screen, seal it completely to make the first full waterproof phone to make the perfect phone, and a rough version with a mini solar panel in the back would be awesone for us who live on/near the beach

  • Only if Sharp sell it harder around the world instead of staying in Japan... The world would've been theirs. But as a person who knows this I'll choose the sharp one over whenever I buy one.

  • They bought it from Sharp, I 'll see this as a win win situation for both side.

  • I have a Aquos Crystal..Have had it 2 years....and it has been a very reliable phone.. why take the same platform pump up the os... do better than lollipop.. it's ok, but im sure Sharp can do better...Xx is not available in the US....?Wow

  • Xiaomi just copied this phone and named it Mi Mix. Chinese lack creativity, they only know to steal.

  • Bahh when this phone will selling in Indonesia

  • just to look at the look man.

  • The screen is awesome(not suprising since they sell HD TV's). Just pretty hard to get.

  • I actually have owned one for almost 1 yr. The bezels (or rather the lack of) is great and the build quality is excellent but there are certain points that make it a frustration to use 1) Lagginess. For some reason the phone lags like there is no tomorrow. I am suspecting it is due to the Softbank bloatware but disabling most of it doesn't help much. Either that or its the overly aggressive thermal throttling on the SD810. In anycase, I couldn't solve it and it is a major pain :( 2) the lousy main camera. The main camera is S***. The images produced are horrible in auto mode. In manual mode, you can still salvage a passable photo but still far away from the quality on corresponding flagships 3) Software update (or the lack off). Lets face it , if you are using it out of japan, you are stuffed. Without a Softbank unisim, you basically cannot updtate the phone and even if you do, you are still on lollipop now. That's like unforgivable for a last year flagship 4) Sound . The speakers are tinny. With the bezeless design, sacrifices are necessary but you will really strain your ears to listen even at max vol

  • So difficult to get it.

  • Gray imports,ray imports everywhere

  • How to hard reset this phone?

  • I used one of their products and was then the best when compared to the latest model of Nokia in 2005. I love this product. I wish if I could find one to buy locally. That handset came all the way from Vodafone UK.

  • looks cool. But not available in India

  • Unfortunately I'm in the same boat (UK) and the only way we can get them is imports from Japan. This is proof that other companies use unnecessary bezels. I would love to have the chance to look at/buy one over here.

  • I am using Sharp Aquas Crystal for the last four months which I bought on eBay brand new and I wouldn't hesitate to say that this is the best android phone I have come across in as many years.

  • Probably yes, visit kyoex. :)

  • Can I get one in the UK or USA?

  • Right here waiting....Vietnam

  • Use Google

  • Where can I buy this phone in dubai

  • Plz bring it to Indonesia

  • how to factory reset this phone ?

  • It's sad to see a unique phone like this to be so underrated. Sharp certainly needs to step up its game when it comes to marketing.

  • Sharp phones exellent phones

  • I can help you. Visit kyoex(dot)com.

  • Have you find a store where buy this modele in europe? Sorry for my english but i'm french

  • please integrate digital tv DVB & ISDB on your phone.

  • I had aquos crystal 1Gen, spec was suck, but desain was awesome, i really love it, spec still can live while waiting the "X" coming.

  • Bezel only at the top would look retarded

  • Where can I buy this phone in Europe???

  • I see what they did there. They can't get rid of the bottom bezel because that is the place where they put the antenna. Why can't they moved it up. Just leave the bottom bezel free and put the bezel on top instead. That is way better. I really like it because it look almost like a see through transparent smartphone when the camera is on.

  • Why Did You Drop Harmon Cardon Sound It Was Great Only Reason I Got Phone Sorry Can't Spell

  • aquos Xx 404SH price in Japan 81120Yen

  • guys their is a site called ( kyoex ) which sells unlocked phones including sharp smartphones ..... thank me later 0_0

  • Where can I buy it in Portugal?

  • shut up and take my money!

  • I am sorry but you got that wrong. It is IPX5/7. Please get your facts right before posting. Source:http://www.softbank.jp/mobile/products/li­st/aquos-xx/spec/

  • it is splash proof, but cannot be used in pool water or isnt resistant underwater, only splashes and spills.

  • Can anyone tell me is this phone waterproof?! I am considering this phone or Z4.

  • i love sharp, they know what i want

  • More likely only company in the states will probably get this is (Sprint)---Sprint has gotten its little brother Aquos Crystal---looks exactly the same, has same radio frequencie bands---Softbank- who owns Sprint is first company who signed on as they already carries a lot of Sharp phones

  • Nice, high-end chipset with FHD screen.

  • no, it will never be available worldwide, Japan only

  • What a phone, what is the expected selling price for this beauty???

  • This new phone looks amazing. Direct Wave Receiver and bezel less technology is amazing. Well done Sharp.

  • Is it will be available world wide

  • prettiest smartphone i have ever seen i love both xperia and sharp smartphoens

  • this is the most beautiful smartphone sharp is way better than sony in smartphone and display
