Hello friends,
Although it is not coming to INDIA, Just wanted to let you know about this device which attracted me.
Sharp has officially unveiled a tablet dubbed Aquos Pad SHT22 and a smartphone named Aquos mini SHL24. Both devices are equipped with IGZO displays, which are more power efficient than the regular TFT LCD panels.
Sharp's newest additions have a very thin bezel on three of their edges and the company calls it EDGEST design. Better still, both devices have an IP 57 certification testifying of water resistance up to 1 meter for 30 minutes.
Aquos mini SHL24
Sharp's latest smartphone comes out of the box with a 4.5-inch IGZO display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The device is powered by a Snapdragon 800 processor along with 2 GB of RAM and features a 13 megapixel rear camera with f/1.9 aperture.
Aquos mini has 16 GB of internal memory and has Android 4.2 Jelly Bean on-board. Lastly, the juice for the smartphone is provided by a 2,120mAh battery. The smartphone measures 63 x 124 x 9.9mm and weighs only 115 grams.
Aquos Pad SHT22
The Aquos Pad SHT22 sports a 7-inch IGZO display with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. The slate features a Snapdragon 800 processor with four Krait 400 CPU cores clocked at 2.3 GHz, 2 GB of RAM 13 megapixel rear camera, 2 megapixel front shooter and 16 GB of internal storage with the ability to expand memory via microSD slot.
The rear camera of the slate has a "Bright lens" with an f/1.9 aperture, BrightEye image processor and NightCatch feature that allows you to capture quality images in low light conditions. Aquos Pad measures 104 x 173 x 9.9 and weighs about 263 grams. The slate runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and packs a 4,080mAh battery.
Unfortunately, there are no details about the pricing and the availability of either device, but we know that the Aquos mini will be available in pink, blue, yellow green and white.

Sharp's AQUOS Serie mini phone has a Full HD IGZO display, bright colors, unlikely stateside availability:
With phone specifications often reaching a terminal velocity before the next new technology or trend, giving your hardware a differentiator can be hard. Sharp's new AQUOS Serie mini SHL24, however, is having a stab at a couple. Firstly, the TV maker is leveraging its IGZO screen tech, and spicing it up by cramming a full (1080p) HD display into the 4.5-inch panel -- that's almost 490 PPI. Secondly, in what it's calling an EDGEST design, the AQUOS Serie mini SHL24 seems to have some of the thinnest bezels we've seen for some time (bar the bottom one where the buttons are) making that screen really take pride of place. Thirdly? Colors of course! As for the rest of the specification, well it's not too shabby either. First up, it's running Android Jelly Bean (4.2), sports a 13-megapixel camera, 16GB of storage (with an SD card slot) and a Snapdragon (MSM8974) quad-core processor -- clocked at around 2.2GHz. Oh, and it's even waterproofed to IPX57 standards. Those are quite a few boxes ticked. But, sadly there's one biggie that currently remains empty -- as far as we can see right now, this is a Japan-only device. Sorry.
