Interesting leh, where the reviews?

not much reviews. mostly are from Taiwan ….

I've already pre-ordered for the 8s Pro. I'm thinking if they sold the Sense8 cheaper, in the $300++ range, it would make it more popular.

Its damn light, but specs wise not for me.

Got 3.5mm headphone jack, got micro SD card expansion, got 1 inch sensor, got sd 8g2, very light and got black tech heat dissipation, I think this phone fits the criteria of the old school smartphone purists exactly.

Mai tu liao!

The one at CEE is ready to buy home instead of preorder. But tbh even at PO price with 1+1 year warranty, with it being 8G2 with imx989 I not sure I wanna hoot.. And it comes preloaded with some jap apps from what I see

A few of the "pre-orders" from Shopee have already been delivered today. The OS is pretty close to stock android experience. I will need to find ways to setup call recording and dual apps as it doesn't have these 2 features that i normally use.

What kind of Jap apps? Does it have FeliCa installed?

Dual apps ? Use island by oasis feng

Just picked up mine from CEE shows. Interestingly, my receipt stated 1 year warranty. So there's no 1+1?

Just submitted TV redemption online. Need 7-14 days verification. Dafug.

I don't see any bloatware beside "My Aquos" which is in Japanese language. Lmao

Am using Singtel, 5G and voLTE is working fine.

Yup working fine on my Aquos R8s Pro.

Ok joined the ship. Po from courts. Straight $25 discount.

6.6"
Sd card slot
Headphone jack.
8g2 albeit not 8g3.
UFS4
Higher than normal res screen
2000 nits
Wireless charging
Charger in the box

Quite compelling.

For the 2nd year extended warranty, you'd need to go to the Sharp Singapore website to register for e-warranty. Only avail after 3 Jun though. I tried to register mine but can't choose the model number yet, so checked with their support staff.

I wonder if sideload camera apk from Leitz Phone on R8s Pro workable. Trying to source the Leitz APK.

I hope this time sharp will have a proper presence in smartphones in SG. Don't be a fly by night one like 2012 and 2016.

At least they are giving us the real McCoy, not the licensed stuff from china
