Any reviews on the camera comparison between R8s Pro and R9? R9 is the newest series but it's not a flagship like R8s Pro I guess? Thanks.

There is a comparison between the R9 and the R8 standard (not sold in Singapore), there's a noticeable improvement especially when handling illuminated signage

Thanks, R9 camera highlight control is very good despite not using a 1" sensor.

Received June 1 security update this week for my Aquos Sense8.
Was previously on March 1 security update.
Not sure about the R series, but at least on the mid ranged Sense , one can expect Android security upgrades every 3-4 months as Sharp is using quarterly upgrade cadence.
That is not good.

I bought a Wish for my mum :)
Unfortunately not a Toyota Wish, but Aquos Wish 🥲

I played a bit with the sense8, seems like a decent competitor to my current phone, but my Motorola G84 has 12GB RAM. Will still stick to Motorola for now as I don't mind a slower CPU

You imported g84 from Amazon?

Wish is a pretty old vehicle at this point, has been replaced with prius alpha then sienta

I doubt there's an R9 pro in development, since it would have not been favourably compared to the other Leica phone, which is now sold officially in Japan.

Played with both the R9 and R8s Pro at Courts, phone performance feels fast and snappy.
I quite like the design of both models.
Camera seem to have shutter lag when there is some movement though, like when you tap the shutter button it sometimes take awhile to response.
