Maybe most people outside Japan don't know what kind of product Sharp makes, so I explain. Sharp sometimes makes very original smartphones in Japan. For example, AQUOS Xx was 120Hz display smartphone in 2015 since they also make displays. AQUOS Crystal was futuristic great narrow bezel design in 2014. AQUOS Zero 2 in 2020 is my favorite smartphone because it's extremely lightweight 141g even thought it's big and has 240Hz BFI OLED. If I understand correctly, their development is still in house, not ODM, at least for high end models. They also makes affordable phones. It's just basic phone and not very good at perf/cost compared to China offerings like Xiaomi, but well sold in Japan it's Sharp/AQUOS branded. Their smartphone's camera is considered to not good even for high end models. They're behind about computational photography. Some news said that Sharp makes camera sensor for iPhone, so maybe fine for making hardware. I confirmed my AQUOS zero2 shots unimpressive photos (IMO iPhone 7 is superior) but it's fine for me who need really lightweight phone because good camera increases weight and camera bump.
