Sharp Aquos phones

[Spectre007]

However, i do hope they add a double tap to lock screen option though. Now i have to achieve that via a 3rd party app. I still prefer using the features OOTB compared to installing another app just for this purpose

Anyways, pull your trigger fast if you want to buy, they are clearing the last batch of stocks already.

eh apa ini, moi tot double tap to lock is a standard function in android, quite terok sia for a side fingerprint phone to ship without it.

I think if it is for ur helper, don't need care so much about telephoto ba

True also lol.. I went to test the unit at bugis Challenger just now.. green quite nice.. but a bit thick the phone.. shutter speed fast.. but camera and video features not that rich...

Hmm... Then it's kind of a bummer... I don't like the google search bar... Always remove it for the phones I am using...

ya it depends on user ba.

for me i find it useful as i use google search alot, i can just do a search clicking on the search bar. instead of needing to launch chrome

gotten a 2nd hand R8S pro at a cheap price to play, 2nd japan phone since i used the R6, which the usage experience wasnt the best esp the camera. And same with R6, i really din like the launcher where the app drawer is un-auto-sortable, have to do it manually, and that it is defaulted to app installed date, lined up after the default-installed apps. And IGZO screen really look different than even OLEDs

For me I just group it in folders, done and forget with it. But of course, I'm curious why they did not go with alphabetical order...

New promotion

What's worse is that the SoC used is a downgrade version.

Dimensity 6300 (Wish5) vs Dimensity 700 (Wish4) with the Wish4 now price-dropped to $199 already. Elderly 60+ would see Wish4 to be more bang for their vouchers if they want to buy using their SG60 vouchers.

Isn’t Dimensity 6300 better than 700?

Telephoto is only for higher end phones. Don't think you can get any phone below $500 with telephoto.

Have you tried Settings -> Customisation? In there, select "Layout" and it should show a "Search Bar" option.

Good price point. Phone is a bit big though.
