Sharp Aquos SH8298U 3D smartphone goes under the knife, comes out in China
Same phone, different market
-- that's pretty much what we're looking at above with Sharp's "new" 3D
Aquos SH8298U. We first got our hands-on this device's twinner -- the Aquos SH-12C -- back at Computex, with that model sporting the Japan-only 1seg receiver, FeliCa (NFC) and 800MHz / 2100MHz bands.
This time out, the OEM's
made some subtle changes to its China entry, reducing the handset's
storage from 8GB to 2GB, and packing it with GSM / WCDMA / HSPA radios.
The rest of the spec list remains exactly the same, leaving this skinned
Android 2.3 phone with a 4.2-inch qHD stereoscopic 3D display, dual 8
megapixel cameras, 512MB RAM and a 1.4GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon
processor. If translated pressers are your idea of fun, go ahead and
check out the source.
