Editorial report

Sharp Aquos R7 12 GB / 256 GB / Japan technical sheet

The Sharp Aquos R7 suits buyers who want a particularly fast display and capable hardware, and can accept a camera that ranks below most phones of its time. Its 6.6-inch display pairs a 240 Hz refresh rate—among the highest of its time—with peak brightness of 2,000 nits, also among the highest. Resolution is 1,260 × 2,730 px and pixel density is 456 ppi; the IGZO LCD panel supports Dolby Vision and Always-On Display.

A Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, 12 GB of RAM, and 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage make for a strong hardware package. Its AnTuTu score is 995,000 on version v9, while its RAM capacity exceeds that of most phones launched around the same time. Connectivity is among the best of its time, with 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and dual SIM using nano-SIM plus eSIM.

The camera is the clearest compromise: the 47 MP main camera has an f/1.9 aperture, dimmer than most, and no optical image stabilization. At 9.5 mm, the body is thicker than that of most phones of its time. Its 5,000 mAh battery capacity is typical rather than a distinguishing strength. With a NeoScore of 6.2, the Aquos R7 is best suited to buyers who prioritize its display, memory, and connectivity over photography.
