Sharp GX15 & GX20

We saw many interesting devices at the stand of Sharp, but we’ll tell only about mobile phones and PDAs. GX10 was seen almost everywhere at the stand. It was written that it was the best phone of the year. In my opinion this phone is a little bit thick, not elegant. I think that its rival, Panasonic GD87, with lesser depth, has better design. But tastes differ…

In summer the company will launch a successor of GX10 – Sharp GX15. It has a third band, a transflective TFT display, which provides better color rendering. If you compare these two models, the picture on the last one looks better.











GX20 is differed from GX15 in the other type of the screen, which is called CG-Silicon LCD. Probable, it is a first phone with such kind of screen; until now, we didn’t see it anywhere. The picture on the screen looks vibrant and bright. In response to this features, it is the best phone I’ve ever seen. The other advantage of this handset is an integrated camera, which has a resolution of 310000 pixels. It’s not typical for modern phones, but would be a standard in September, when this phone would be available in shops. The price is not known yet. They said that it has an increased memory and could record short video. Let’s wait and see what rivals will make to that time. It seems to me that GX20 has a lesser depth than GX10. You can try to estimate it yourself on the photo (the phone was protected by a glass).

請問CeBit特輯中
有拍SHARP的GX15和GX20的照片嗎
謝謝~
不好意思!由於只去三天,無法將所有展場走遍,且Sharp並未將手機攤位設在和其他手機大廠於同一展館內,所以並沒有看到Sharp的展場...

Three new handsets recently announced by Sharp -- one for the GSM market and two for Japan -- show that the gap between the two markets is narrowing, at least at the top-end of the market. The handsets are the GX20, the as-yet-unannounced successor to Sharp's GX10, and its two latest models for J-Phone Co. Ltd. and NTT DoCoMo Inc.

First details of the GX20 were revealed on Monday courtesy of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The agency published details of Sharp's GX20 handset after the phone received regulatory approval for use in the U.S.

The phone differs from the GX10, which Vodafone Group PLC says is presently its best-selling model in the U.K., in several ways. One of the changes is obvious even when the clamshell style handset is closed. Sharp has upgraded the sub-display from a small two-line monochrome LCD (liquid crystal display) to a 65,536-color STN (super twisted nematic) display with 80-pixel by 60-pixel resolution, according to company documents released by the FCC.

That makes it a lot more like the handsets on sale in Japan, where color sub-displays are already common features and both the new domestic phones from Sharp feature them.

Another area in which GSM models are fast catching up is the camera function. The GX20 has a 350,000-pixel resolution CCD (charge coupled device) sensor, say the documents, which is a generation above the 110,000-pixel sensor on the GX10.

In the area of display technology, the GSM handset is also close behind Sharp's domestic models. The GX20 has a QVGA (240 pixels by 320 pixels) display, according to the documents released by the FCC. That is equal to the two new Japanese handsets and four times the resolution of the GX10. The GX20 can display 65,536 colors, again according to the FCC documents, which puts it a step behind the Japanese handsets and their support for 260,000 colors.

Because it is based on the GSM standard, the GX20 beats the Japanese handsets hands down when it comes to roaming. Whereas the Japanese models can only be used domestically, the GX20 is a tri-band model and so can be used almost anywhere in the world where there is a GSM network. That is also an improvement over the GX10, which was dual-band and so could not be used in the U.S. and Canada.

Compared together the three handsets are almost identical in size. The GX20 is expected to measure 95 millimeters by 49 millimeters by 25 millimeters, the J-SH53 is 95 millimeters by 50 millimeters by 24 millimeters and the SH505i is 50 millimeters by 102 millimeters by 21 millimeters. The GX20's predicted weight is slightly lighter than the Japanese handsets. It is expected to weigh 105 grams compared to 115 grams for the two new Japanese handsets
