Sharp Aquos phones

[gripen]

Aquos R9 August 1 Android update is out as well.

 

[bump&bump]

I am using Sense8 with MVNO Eight. In SG the VoLTE icon can be seen at topbar, and I can make and receive voice calls. When in Malaysia, Eight roaming autoconnect to Maxis, data no problem, but the VoLTE icon does not show up. When back in SG, VoLTE icon will show up again. What is the reason ? Is this phone model specific ?

Likely is Maxis issue.

Any recommendations on which to get as of now? Looking at either the R9 pro or R10 (since r9 out of stock)

If you're not in any hurry to change phone, you could wait till end of the year. R10 Pro and Sense 10 should supposedly be released around Nov/Dec.

If you are looking for better performance phone between the R9 Pro and R10, the R9 Pro is the better choice. The R9 pro features a better processor, display, and camera system compared to the R10.

The price of R9 pro and 10 is also about the same price. Not sure what's happening there. Nod thing I do observed is the design of R9 pro is similar to xiaomi 15t

Mi 15T don't looks similar to R9 pro, should be Mi 15 Ultra instead.

Sense 10 got announced,seems like the 9 with a newer 7sgen3 chip

 

[Psychotik]

Will probably upgrade my Sense 8 over to this new Sense 10. The green screen on 8 has bugged me for past 2 years.

Funny how they skipped the R10 Pro this year. Was hoping it could replace the R9 Pro which was quite disappointing in specs.

Seems to also come with some improvement in features like what they did with the R10. Better speakers, AI for photos, etc. Android 16 out of box. Officially released 13 Nov in Japan. https://global.sharp/corporate/news/251031-d.html

chiu kana green screen still dare to buy the same series again?

Green screen not visible on the Sense 9 as far as i can tell. Sense 10 probably using the same screen. Will of course get some hands tests before buying. Nowadays, there aren't many small phones released, especially those that still keep a dedicated microsd slot. Which is my number one must have when i replace my phones.

Looks like the Sharp Aquos Sense 10 is up for pre-order already. Although they announced on their Facebook page that it should start on 7th Nov. Shopee has it listed at $639. Comes with free Spingle case, $90 cashback, and wireless earbuds.

Downside being the 7s Gen3 SoC just got built into Sense 10 when 7s Gen4 has already been released, although tbf the only improvement would be the Prime Core Clock speed (+200MHz on 7s Gen4) alone.
