21/11 Sharp Phones in Europe?
| Category: Camera Phones By editor at 15:49 |
I adore Sharp Phones for their cameras and screens and their classic look since the times I bought a GX-30 via Vodafone (who was then in a fight with Nokia). Sadly the Sharp brand has almost disappeared from mobile phone shops and that's a pity - even more so, as Sharp phones come with a preinstalled QR Code Reader made by Sharp's inhouse team.
Note: Cool, I just discovered a QR Code on the Swiss Sharp Site:).

Sharp is still undisputed handset leader in Japan: 1Q 07 data
Sharp continues to hold its dominant position in Japan’s handset market through four consecutive quarters, increasing its market share to 22.6% in 1Q07 from 21.2% in 4Q06, reports IDC. Strong sales of Raku-Raku series phones are worth mentioning among other 1Q07 highlights as they helped Fujitsu get in the top five handset vendors.

I have the sharp 920SH (Softbank Japan)
The QR code reader works well with auto focus and a blue bar to signify a matrix read.
There are currently 10 TV stations I can view on my local network but it does chew the battery life up.
I found the camera images a little difficult to get consistently right and still experimenting with settings when using the flash.
The Softbank spring range is currently being released in Japan which seems to have an emphasis on personal data security and yet more lifestyle option.
I have a 20:1 ratio of data & e-mail to voice use, it’s much simpler and faster to use the auto response text or animation reply

Dear Kupa,
Can you tell us more about personal data security?
I just found this on the Softbank site:
