Sharp Aquos Crystal receives an update


The Aquos Crystal is a middle range smartphone manufactured by Sharp that reached the market just a few weeks ago. It’s an interesting device, with a good balance between performance and price.

The most remarkable feature of the Sharp Aquos Crystal is its design. It has an almost bezel-less screen, thanks to the uncommon location of the front camera, sensors and notification LED. All those components has been moved to the bottom part of the device, leaving the upper part completely free.

The device is Sprint exclusive, with a price of $149 contract-free. It is a 5-inch device with 1280 x 720 pixel resolution powered by a Snapdragon 400 processor and 1.5 GB of RAM.

The Aquos Crystal runs Android 4.2.2, and it doesn’t change with this update. The new software fixes some bugs and add some new bloatware. The new firmware version is SA300, and it will be rolling out in waves.
