Editorial report

Sharp Aquos R9 pro 12 GB / 512 GB / Japan technical sheet

The Sharp Aquos R9 pro suits buyers looking for a photography-focused phone with a high-refresh-rate display. Its main trade-offs are weight, thickness, and battery capacity below that of most phones of its time: it weighs 220 g, measures 9.3 mm thick, and has a 5,000 mAh battery.

The 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display offers 240 Hz and 513 ppi; both its refresh rate and pixel density are among the best of its time. Performance and hardware are better than most, with 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage in this configuration. Its camera specifications are among the best of its time. The 1-inch sensor is among the largest, and the telephoto camera's 2.8x optical zoom exceeds that of most phones launched around the same time. Optical image stabilization and 4K recording at 60 fps are also included.

Connectivity is among the best of its time, with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, and 5G support. Its 15 W wireless charging exceeds that of most phones, while wired fast charging is rated at 32 W. The Sharp Aquos R9 pro earns a NeoScore of 8.1. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize the display and cameras and are comfortable with a heavy body and a smaller-than-most battery.
