Editorial report
Sharp Aquos R8 technical sheet
The Sharp Aquos R8 suits people looking for strong hardware and broad connectivity; its main trade-off is a battery capacity below that of most phones from its time. Its overall NeoScore is 6.6, and performance is better than most: a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 works with 12 GB of RAM. Its AnTuTu result is among the best of phones launched around the same time; that is a benchmark figure, not a test of everyday use.
The 6.39-inch IGZO LCD display has a density of 456 ppi, among the highest of its time, and peak brightness of 2000 nits, better than most. The display overall is typical. For photos, the 50 MP sensor measures 1/1.55″, larger than most; its f/1.9 aperture is worse than most. The phone also has a 13 MP ultrawide camera and 4K video recording. Camera performance as a category is typical.
Connectivity is better than most phones launched around the same time, with 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3 and Dual SIM using Nano-SIM and eSIM. At 208 g, it weighs more than most phones of its time, while its 4570 mAh battery has less capacity than most. The Aquos R8 makes the most sense for someone prioritizing performance, memory and connections, rather than battery capacity.
