"We've been hearing rumblings of a Sharp VGA phone since before 3GSM, but Vodafone has finally announced the 904SH, a 3G phone sporting four times the fun of QVGA at a 480x640 resolution. There's also a 3.2 megapixel camera with 2x optical zoom and autofocus, a 3D motion sensor, Bluetooth, GPS, miniSD storage, and WCDMA (UMTS) data. The phone should be available in Japan late April, let's hope for some swift imports"

Thats a high resolution for a phone.

It sounds really good, the only thing i'd say is I bet the battery life wont stand up to the stated times, my 903 only lasts about 2 days on average

Just as bad as my old v3! I think a larger screen will make it just as bad....

but on another note I would probably still get it if it came out over here, it seems amazing!

This will just end up being massive like the rest of the 90x series has

How many of these phones do Sharp actually sell in the UK? I wish they'd bring out a new GX series phone

the problem is that they are so high priced, in the high street, £350 on the lowest tariff

(903) but in actual fact whoever has bought a 902 or 903 normally says how great they are.

It doesnt help when they are Voda exclusives either

Yup - my 640x480 is more useable.
