I’ve worked for Sharp for the past 7 years and I always talked about this phone internally - this video was my first introduction to Sharp before I worked for them. What you might not realise is Sharp is a HUGE phone provider in Japan. They have numerous devices and have certainly evolved from this phone. The rest of the world doesn’t get to see what Sharp is really doing outside of microwaves and copiers unless you are in Asia or in the know. One of the most innovative & inventive companies in the world!
@@calvinmann4674 it's a shame that they didn't really try to get into the market. they just farted a few budget (albeit cool) phones onto the american market and then quit after 2 gens
This is where it all started. The beginning of the true great bezel race, I love the advancements we've made I'm getting my fold 3 in the mail soon. From no bezel to folding phones. Incredible to look back on where it call came from.
@@shehrozkhan6821 but you can get phones with better processors and cameras at a little more budget for example see the redmi 6a for 82 usd or 6,000 INR so why you bought this phone that is 4 years old
Thanks for showing this. It is very refreshing to see a company do something completely different. Though this is a midrange low spec phone the design makes it look more premium than some of the highend high spec phones. Kudos to Sharp for thinking outside the box for a change relative to other OEM's. Oh also glad to see the cast finally off your hand.
Speaking of the cameras there was an even earlier phone also from Nokia (no surprise there) called 808 pureview, with a giant camera, so yeah the 1020 can be called it's successor
our planet needs more phones like this.companies should make phones like this.freaking love the design.just imagine HTC or Sony with no bezels lol.the future of smartphones will look like this but i hope its soon.its a shame that sharp was the first company to think of this design other than the moto 360 but still
They didn't 'think' of it first.. They just created it first. It does look cool, but just like the dude said, it will have more chance of breaking if dropped on the side and it would be hard to get a case for it. But it does look freaking awesome!
now they just copy, and say "we have invented this this called ......" It's funny to watch their keynote these days. Like iPhone 6 launch, auto focus on video....haha, what a joke
Timestamp Bot No, he does have a point. Apple did innovate, that's what they built their entire mobile division around...now they've kind of stagnated. I don't want to sound like every other butt-hurt Apple fan but I honestly think that a part of the company died with Jobs. They're no different than other smartphone manufacturers now, when at one point they genuinely were.
@@trevistang8857 we are talking about mrwhosetheboss'video called ''The Forgotten Samsung phone'' And in that video he talks about 3 phones people forgot about... The aquos crystal is one of them...
It is funny to watch this video about this phone now on a Galaxy S10+ having owned the Aquos Crystal a few years ago. It's cool to see the progression!
Ive had this phone for a little over 4 months. It really stands out from the other phones. I actually upgraded from my iPhone 5c to this one. This is a great phone that's not too expensive. I've dropped it many times and still has yet to crack. I'd recommend this phone if your looking for something high quality and different
I still have mine from 2010 as well! It looks amazing but didn't have much to offer other than music. I hated the no speakers. That was the biggest drawback of all
Got one imported to the UK at the time! Much better than an iPod at the time for music, played at a higher quality and the screen was lovely and it was small and had amazing build quality imo!
I saw the real Aquos Crystal on subway today for the first time. It looks way much better than I thought. I thought it would look cheap despite the creative design, but it looks really cool actually. I like it
The level of innovation between this video and modern day smartphone technology is impressive to say the least. I thought we wouldn't get bezel-less smartphones until the early 2020s, but we have them now. Cannot wait to see what comes next.
Sharp phones are very nice. They have been working for bezel-less phone since 6 years ago unlike other top brand phones these days which just started doing the same a year ago.
0:44 Zune HD was the absolute peak of Mp3 players. No joke. I know no one took them seriously, because well, they were Zunes, but besides the lack of apps, that was the best mp3 player of all time.
Alex Thorn Such a great device. You don't even need a case for them haha. I dropped mine from the second story of my house onto the tile floor on accident, not a scratch on it, and not a smidgen of a crack on the screen.
If you didn't know, in Japan there's a larger, better model, the Crystal X. It has a 5. 5" display, a Snapdragon 801, and flagship-quality specs. If you're willing to pay more, you could import one and enjoy the beautiful design without the lower specs.
So true.. Such a simple phone. You can do so much more with an android. Iphones haven't really changed since the first one. Just the style and quickness, maybe some hands on software too but not much..
***** if the bezel is on top, it would have an ear piece, and sensors, and the camera would be placed right... i don't think there's an advantage of having the chin rather than the top (IMO)
So as long as you don't have the phone against your ear, nobody can hear it? If so, that's pretty damn awesome. Also, put the navigational buttons on the chin. Besides me just not understating the point of on-screen buttons in general, I really don't understand why they didn't try doing off-screen buttons on this phone. For one, you'd have a chin that looks useful and not as empty. And then there's the additional screen space which would make a phone like this look even better.
Ignas359 that's where the display driver go. Usually on normal phone its on the top, but now they moved it to the bottom. So you can't added anything in there
Steven Campbell You do know he keeps getting checks from youtube right? It's not a one and done thing so he's gotten way more than that cameras cost in revenue.

Good luck "educating" people.
in my opinion the HTC minus the black empty stripe and in a light robust plastic material would be the best form factor (with onscreen buttons) but with a side physical button. the off screen space would be all high quality stereo speakers and a tiny front camera...and it would be perfectly symmetric in landscape mode. Also big batteries are a must...a smartphone should last 2 days with heavy use, who cares about an extra millimeter and extra gram. Smartphones need to be practical, efficient and affordable, beauty is secondary.
I bought this phone back in the day. I used it as my daily driver for about a year. It was an AWESOME phone for the price! The first day I had it, I got looks from all around. I don't understand why phones don't use the bone conduction. It's the best for call quality. Was such a futuristic phone. I miss it.

Everytime someone asked who started the bezeless game. I remember your video about this Sharp Aquos. 2014 and now 2019 time o notch and bezeless phones.
I wanted this phone so bad back in the day... This screen design! But now I got Nubia Z60, so...in some way this dream came true in a different form :)
I never understand how people downplay 720p on phones, its pretty stupid, I have the iPhone 4 with a 720p and it looks crystal clear. I also have an Xperia with 1080p, and honestly there isn't any difference, unless you put the phone right up close touching your nose, there is no difference.... its all a gimmick, but I do like to see High res on Tablets for sure.
When this phone came out, I was in my final year of high school, one of the girls in my class had this phone and I was totally mesmerised by it, I thought it was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. I don’t understand why Sharp didn’t take off as a tech company, you don’t really hear about them these days , But I don’t see why today’s phones can’t be just like this. Why do we still have bezels in 2024????
This review pushed me over the edge into buying the phone. Marques is on point here. "Dat bezel" isn't what makes this phone. It's just what aesthetically sets it apart. Great review, great phone, great price. Thanks, Marques!

Yes in 2020

Yup

The device that started the bezel less revolution.
To Marques, loving the high quality video. It just makes watching everything more pleasing to my eyes especially on my 15" MBP.
They could've put the bezel on top....
no.. that wouldn't really make sense..
***** why not? it doesnt even have physical buttons.
jerome ley Because people would think you were holding the phone upside down, not to mention it would look retarded.
It would be ugly, unnecessary, and unintuitive to have the bezel on top.. I'd rather a phone have a chin instead of a forehead.
***** if the bezel is on top, it would have an ear piece, and sensors, and the camera would be placed right... i don't think there's an advantage of having the chin rather than the top (IMO)
So as long as you don't have the phone against your ear, nobody can hear it? If so, that's pretty damn awesome.
Also, put the navigational buttons on the chin. Besides me just not understating the point of on-screen buttons in general, I really don't understand why they didn't try doing off-screen buttons on this phone. For one, you'd have a chin that looks useful and not as empty. And then there's the additional screen space which would make a phone like this look even better.
The glass covers all the way passed the chin.
asmodia255 So? I don't see why they couldn't have managed to add some capacitive buttons there.
They're trying to keep the cost down and introduce themselves into the prepaid market.
asmodia255 Adding 3 capacitive buttons doesn't seem all that expensive. I'm pretty sure it was a design choice, rather than a financial one.
Ignas359 that's where the display driver go. Usually on normal phone its on the top, but now they moved it to the bottom. So you can't added anything in there

asdfrozen Same here.
This would be a great competitor to the Moto G for Sprint users because it has LTE. As for the rest of the rest of the world, the Moto G has it beat.
***** It's a Snapdragon 400 chip, so hopefully flashing a custom ROM won't be an issue anyway. But yeah, I agree, software support is an issue.

End of the world confirmed
Lol
half life 3 confirmed
I never understand how people downplay 720p on phones, its pretty stupid, I have the iPhone 4 with a 720p and it looks crystal clear.
I also have an Xperia with 1080p, and honestly there isn't any difference, unless you put the phone right up close touching your nose, there is no difference.... its all a gimmick, but I do like to see High res on Tablets for sure.
The iphone 4 doesn't have a 720p screen..
***** LOLZ fail.
Robert Merrill So this is even MORE the reason to prove my point so I wouldn't laugh... but yea its 640x960 my bad.
Haha its okay. I think what matters more for phones is the PPI so you're right that your iPhone 4 is really sharp because it has 326 PPI
Robert Merrill I got the 720p camera mixed up with the phone resolution lol.
All about that Sharp Aquos Xx. Really looking forward to see Sharp bring its new line of phones to the states.
And here we are today
NO PEACE!?!
screenshot maybe?
This is way better than a notch phone. This was seriously pioneering.
Welcome to a new episode of TH-cam recommends.
Why in 2019?
SAAAAME
No one knows same here
Because the new sharp came out? Idk
why does this one look better than modern bezelless phones
When this phone came out, I was in my final year of high school, one of the girls in my class had this phone and I was totally mesmerised by it, I thought it was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. I don’t understand why Sharp didn’t take off as a tech company, you don’t really hear about them these days , But I don’t see why today’s phones can’t be just like this. Why do we still have bezels in 2024????
This is one of those videos that just deserves a like, I mean, just look at dat sheeeeeet.
its 2016 and no phone has come close to the bezel-less display of this phone yet.
Ali Zaiter xiamoi mi mix
Haha yup, but its way too big
Jabez Diocares Video of mi max coming soon
+Josh Tatsuo [Bogellenong] check n take a look on the sharp corner r design
Gungtoro Abdul Gafur the era of bezelless smartphones is almost here
This review pushed me over the edge into buying the phone. Marques is on point here. "Dat bezel" isn't what makes this phone. It's just what aesthetically sets it apart. Great review, great phone, great price. Thanks, Marques!
If it had newest Android it would be best even in 2018.
