SoftBank and Sprint merge to bring the Sharp AQUOS Crystal smartphone to the United States. Sprint and its prepaid brands (Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile USA) are the exclusive U.S. carriers for this groundbreaking AQUOS device. Sharp, a company known worldwide for its unique one-of-a-kind electronics is determined to create a balance between work and personal time with products that can benefit customers’ lives. Sharp AQUOS Crystal breaks the mold of traditional smartphone design. From stunning picture quality and an immersive, vibrant display, to its sleek, 5-inch edge-to-edge HD screen, AQUOS Crystal revolutionizes the mobile phone experience.

Let's see — what can I tell you about this amazing phone? First, you have to love that this phone has HD Voice. This virtually eliminates background noise and sound quality is dramatically enhanced on a call between two Sprint HD Voice-enabled devices on upgraded areas of the Sprint network. Wi-Fi Calling also allows users to use their voice and messaging services over existing home (aff), office and public Wi-Fi networks. As long as you have a good Wi-Fi connection (well, I have a very good one), this service works just as good as making a call over the regular network! Another amazing feature is the 3G/4G mobile hotspot capability supporting up to eight Wi-Fi®enabled devices simultaneously. As somebody who has multiple gadgetsneedingwifi when we go places, this is extremely helpful for me. The Speaktoit Assistant was pretty sweet too. You speak to Assistant just like you’d talk to a person, and it will update social media statuses, manage notes, search for interesting places. Once the Assistant gets to know you, it'll better anticipate what you’ll need! You can also easily edit every Microsoft® Word, Excel and PowerPoint document using the AQUOS Crystal, so you can work on the go, whenever you might be using OfficeSuite. Google Mobile™ services on here include Google Play™, Google Search™, Google Maps™, Google Navigation™, Google Talk™, Google Calendar™, Google +™, Gmail™ and YouTube™. For me, I use all those services, so that was extremely helpful!

Now that we've talked about productivity, let's talk about the fun stuff! Harman Kardon’s LiveStage™ provides a more lifelike headphone listening experience by adding dimension (aff) to the sound. Clari-Fi™ technology improves digital sound quality by restoring all types of compressed digital music. Clip Now takes screenshots with one swipe and saves them with an embedded URL for easy sharing. Dual Cameras: 8MP rear-facing camera with flash (3,264×2 (aff),448 photo resolution; 1080p@30FPS video resolution) and 1.2MP front-facing camera (1,280×960 photo resolution; 720p@30FPS video resolution). Advanced photo features such as night catch to brighten both subject and background for those tricky nighttime shots, sequential shots to catch rapid movements by using a simple button hold, and shutter detect makes it easy to capture unforgettable moments with your friends and family by automatically taking a photo when it detects a smile. (Love the detect a smile feature due to having kids who don't smile when you want them too!). Google Play™ with more than 1 million apps, millions of songs and books, and thousands of movies. Bill often uses his phone running. As a family, we hook our phone up to the car to listen to music on our phone trips. Good sounding music is a must need in our family, and this phone does that.

What feature of this phone would you like the best? What do you look for shopping for a new phone?

    It’s cool that carriers here are starting to take a few more chances. My son is stationed overseas and he’s had this phone for several months now and loves it. I’d love to have some options besides a sea of Samsungs and iPhones. Hopefully more things like this catch on!
