I just like how natural your videos come across. No overprocessing with crazy lower thirds or other visual additions or sounds. Keep it up, man. Respect.
Thank you!
Camera comparison aside, Aquos R7 has (over 12S ULtra):
- sdcard slot
- 3.5mm headphone jack
- 5000mAh battery
- 1-240Hz 2000 cd/m2 screen
To some, that is a GREAT advantage over the 12S Ultra.
Yep thats the most important things, I'll add even add one more: The Sharp Aquos R7 also has Display Out which is a HUGE PLUS for me
Lmao a shitty LCD screen vs the Xiaomi AMOLED just because of battery eating 240Hz? Never
@@Einheit101 where did you read the r7 has shitty lcd screen?
@@Einheit101 lol R7 use IGZO OLED, not a cheap screen like IPS LCD.
@@senzawa04 Some IPS screens are very good. If they weren't Apple wouldn't have used them for so long
Thank you for keeping up so late and putting these videos for us!
Even at 2 am, this man is on point when it comes to analysis. Props my guy! I use your vids a lot as an example because you’re so thorough. Keep it up!
Thank you
I appreciate every time and every video. Thanks, man ! 🤝
Thank you for watching
I love this comparison video 👍 and appreciate your hard work! 🙏
Thank you for the fair comparison video Ben. Keep on the good work! :)
Appreciate the hard work Ben ♥️
Way way waaaay back then, Japan had the most advanced and futuristic phone line up and Sharp is one of the main competitor together with Sony, Fujitsu, Toshiba...
They would all release all these amazing phone with different form factors under Docomo and I can only wish in my dreams lol
Keep it up Ben. Your work is amazing!
Thanks for another great camera shootout ben. 🙂
THIS is the video I was looking for!
Dedication with these late night videos man damn 🙏
Great comparison as always.👍
Good man!! Very dedicated!! Love your works!!
Great video! Really enjoy watching your videos 👍
Thanks again for your videos, Ben!
First, I wanted the Oppo Find X5. Then you reviewed the Vivo, then I wanted the Vivo. Then you reviewed the Xiaomi...
I ordered the Xiaomi on Monday with 12gb and 256gb. Hope I get a shipping notification next week. Thanks!
God bless you Ben, always reliable!
Thank you so much for this update 👍
Wow, Xiaomi's camera is definitely more polished, but for the average user the photos may look identical. When I first heard the Sharp will bring out a phone with a 1 inch camera sensor I was so hyped and now we have Xiaomi that put in their smartphone that sensor. The future is promising!
This is Sharp's second phone with the sensor. I wish they had more advanced software for processing.
Sharp and Sony were promotors in every aspect of smart device world. Crap copy-cats like chinese and korean BS is for fools knowing nothing about quality. Sharp look blurrier because the focus has different algorithm, and you should take it in manual mode. Stupid comments overall, and it's lame what he is doing and should go to sleep!
make a comparison video for both phone then.let see how good are u doin it
@@bam_bad kissing @ss or what? Facts are facts!!
@@everything_huawei_pro4743 beat a sh@t! Their garbage OS is not helping at all. It's really not in the game of most impeccable OS with great ideas implemented...
I really like your videos, you always have a review on UNIQUE phone that is hard to find like this Sharp Aquos.
loves from Philippines
Aquos R7 is such a beautiful phone. In this department, Aquos R7 win.
For your hardwork just subscribed!! Keep it coming bro!!
Thank you
I absolutely love Sharp phones, It's so sad they don't sell in europe.
Great video! I have Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra and I love it's cameras but the shutter speed, and low light photos take way too long, and can result in blurry images of moving objects and in general, that is why I ordered the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, the image quality is improved, but knowing myself I won't notice it this much, however way faster shutter speed, less blur of image and faster night mode is the highlight for me, I love taking snaps and love taking shots on auto mode while letting the phone do all the corrections, Xiaomi 12S Ultra seems to be a huge step up in that department and that is why I bought the phone, Sharp in this video reminds me allot of my phone, it takes great pictures, but if the object move, or if I move slightly the pictures are blurry/less detailed and it ruins the experience for me
Interesting to see the bokeh difference. Crazy how much the 23mm FoV adds over the wider 19mm FoV
He didn't use the 19mm FoV, he used the default crop mode on the Sharp Aquos R7 he didnt use ther full sensor for some reason which crippled the sharp aquos R7 plus he missed focus a bunch of times. Overall it was a sloppy bad review
I actually prefer the 19mm look - it's much easier to vlog with and you still get the natural bokeh when needed
@@jthomas5o158 Sure, focal length is very much a personal preference thing. Personally, I'd like to see a phone with a high quality 35mm main cam because it's such a versatile field of view for most photography. But filming yourself is definitely not suited to 35mm 😂
I feel like my dream phone camera setup is going to look like a block of Swiss cheese hahaha
You are so lucky to get that Sharp phone. I'd SO love to get my hands on one.
Sometimes I felt the sharp gave a more natural look with less over sharpness and no clipping highlights.
But then it seems the lens may not be as good and the software cannot handle other situations well.
A phone showing more clouds these days isn't always a good indicator as I can turn up some sliders to bring forth clouds you didn't think were possible. And these phones are basically doing Lightroom for us
3:35 Xiaomi's camera applies a yellow filter.
LOVE the thumbnail ❤
Awesome - Awesome - you are a legend!
Good job Mr.Ben
Keep up the good work
Vivo x80 pro plus vs xioami 12S ultra....
thank you for your video I didn't know about Sharp Aquos R7 at all good information.
During, I watch your content every time on the video I was very effective especially comparison
all about hp brand.
This is the content I wanna see. Please follow up on the Sharp in 6 months or so if you can. The R6 was announced and was forgotten about. I'd like to know more about it. Xiaomi is really doing their thing though.
I am using a Mi 11 ultra and the camera is definitely amazing in terms of photo taking. But the OS def needs some polishing up. By the way, i got the mi 11 ultra after watching your review previously. Thanks for all the cool and detailed reviews.
Very interesting comparison Ben👌👌. I feel Xiaomi have done a really good job with the 12s ultra. Appreciate the hard work you put into making this content for us✌✌. Nicely done Sir and keep up the good work.
Wrong
As of now, Xiaomi 12S Ultra is my "future" phone. Probably I will never buy it because for now won't see the light of the day in Europe and more likely it will never be priced as i hope... which means 700€ or lower, even after 12 months 😅 I sadly think that if I want a new cameraphone after P30 Pro (paid 549€), In must to pay no less than 800€ if I'm lucky.
nice to know the new Snapdragon can help improve the speed in processing of photos.
Indeed, however software also responsible on making it happens, my former phone rocks MTK Helio x20 but it performs better than my Sharp Aquos R2, which clearly have shittier software optimization than to the former even though more modern and newer
2 48 am he still making videos that's what I call dedication to the phones reviews
great video
thanks
Wow,. Have a well deserved rest.🏆😊 And thanks again for another informative video.
Thanks Ben.
Hi Ben. Thank you for the honest review. I heard that the sharp is cropping into the sensor and is not utilizing it fully. Is that true? It doesn't seem like it from the framing of the shots. Or is it that both phones are cropping in to the sensor?
Sharp has softer images, the irony.
Thanks for these very interesting comparisons!
Thanks for the interesting comparison.👍
Sleep well.😴
Good work👍🏻👍🏻
whats the cheapest point n shoot that defeats x90 pro/14pro
what is on top of xiaomi camera block?
It should be noted that the Sony IMX989 CMOS lens of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra is 50 megapixels, while the AQUOS R7 is 47.2 megapixels, indicating that Sharp is using the cropped sensor. Lei Jun has said that the Xiaomi 12S Ultra uses a custom Sony IMX989, complete with a 1-inch super bottom, and no cropping was done. Lei Jun revealed that Xiaomi’s camera department was involved in the IMX989 specification definition and part of the design and verification work. 15 million USD was spent on IMX989 development, with Xiaomi and Sony each bearing half of the cost.
My guess is that they wanted to use the same lens as in the Aquos R6. But the R7 has a slightly larger sensor with a slightly larger diagonal, so the diagonal field of view would have been larger (18mm instead of 19mm) and there would have been maybe too much vignetting or it would be more difficult to advertise 18mm instead of 19mm.
@@Quoutub They are using the same size sensor in both cameras as well as aperture, what Sharp is most likely doing is giving the true megapixel count vs Xiaomi rounding up
@@CallMeRabbitzUSVI No, they don't use the same sensor size. The Aquos R6 uses a 115mm² area, the Xiaomi 12S uses 129mm², which is slightly larger than a 4:3 1" type sensor. A 4:3 1" type sensor would have 120mm².

Perfect 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Now I know what all the bigfoot and UFO sightings are photographed on lol the not so Sharp R7....thanks for another interesting vid Ben 👌
What is the min and max iso level on Xiaomi? Pro mode
That's really a close call and much is down to preferences.
You like black shadows, I prefer shadows with structure. So you like the dynamic range in Xiaomi photos but Sharp videos, I prefer the dynamics of Sharp photos but Xiaomi videos. 🤣
But you're good in comparisons. 😃👍
Just once again the request: please zoom a bit more in for details (pixel-peeping.). Some people watch your videos on a smartphone with good resolution. Thanks! 😉
Can you share all the comparison samples and videos, so that you can use a computer to enlarge and compare them
do you have a plan for review 12s 6.2 ?
Thanks Ben that's for that comparison , that Aquos is still not bad
Sad to see there wasnt any coverage on the R8S / R8 Pro, and now the R9 is on the horizon. I wanna see more 1" camera reviews esp from sharp! I wanna see more in depth tech review of their software gaming performance, volume output on headphone & speaker output.
QUESTION: I bought one of these phones (in Japan), (12S Ultra) using MIUI 13.0.4 and the LECIA Branding Name is NOT on the outside of the phone. The Lecia brand is only mentioned in the 2 Lecia Settings in SOFTWARE only, but Am confused as to WHY the "LECIA" Name was Not put on the phone Exterior As Per EVERY OTHER VIDEO & PICTURE OF THIS Phone FOR MONTHS (My phone has the word "XIAOMI" printed instead there. ------ I'm just confused as to- ''Why' not' the word "LECIA"? ---------- Also; P.S. My Phone also has the small wording "1- INCH" printed at the camera lens system; opposite to where LECIA should be written.
Did I buy some kind of Sample version?
Sharp introduced the R6 with the 1" sensor last year in Japan, and Leica had it's own modified version.
As far as I am aware neither model was sold in Europe.
Sharp has upgraded certain internals in the R7.
It will be interesting to see if either the Xiaomi or the Sharp is officially sold in Europe.
I was surprised that Leica did not sell their version worldwide. Leica fans would have loved it.
I am curious will Leica announce a new flagship phone or not? Last year Sharp announced the R6 in May, and after a few weeks Leica did announce their phone. Now we don't have any information about a new Leica phone. And I wonder will the new Leica phone have a single camera again? If yes, they can not compete with other expensive phones you know.
Isn't it ironic that Sharp is less sharp of those two?
Xiaomi 12S Ultra is exclusive to China, need to import it from Tradingshenzen if you want to buy it in Europe.
@@Qrvishon Ben didn't use the full sensor like you can in the camera app, he used the crop mode the entire time. Also he missed focus tons of times and decided to compare the shots anyway. Pretty sloppy review
@Ben - I am considering to buy the Chinese version of this phone or do you recommend that one waits for the international version? Actually what is the difference between domestic and international versions of smart phones? Is it just the software or is it hardware related as well (thinking about 5G)? If one buys a domestic version, is it difficult to switch to English version?
I don't know if there will be an international version. The China version can switch to English and install Google easily. Not much diff other than have to install Google first
will they make global OS for mi12s ultra?
bro where can i buy sharp phone new or used can you tell me any website i am from oman.
How many watts charging in Aquos?
Now i'm excited to see what the major players can do with this new "1inch" sensor considering they can do a more polished camera software, so i wont be in a hurry to get the 12s ultra for now.
And it's not actually available outside China.
Well i dont think those big player will use this sensor, even google pixel use outdated imx 363 until pixel 5
Im not very excited tbh, I expected more from a 1" sensor. 12S Ultra should be destroying every phone out there in the camera department but it doesnt. Pixel and iPhones with their smaller sensors give more consistent results and better photos videos most of the time. Software is really king when it comes to smartphone photography.
@@ssaini5028 exactly what I'm saying. if they can do great with the smaller sensors, imagine how much improvement they can do with these bigger ones.
@@Yoedi16 i'm not talking about now but sooner or later everyone will eventually catch up with the newer and bigger sensors, and by that time we can see them being used with much better software from other brands
Panasonic Lumix has a 1" phone too bro was in 2017 already
Ben is the hardest working man/latest working man in Hong Kong lol.
Takeaway though from this video, nothing that we didn't already know but this just reaffirms it again how critical camera software and AI to getting good photos from a phone. Just like with the R6, as good as that sensor was and this IMX989 is even better, Xiaomi's software is clearly ahead of Sharp's and naturally takes better pictures.
two big stars collided :)
can u do a comparison video between dslr and mi 12s ultra
Leica phone and Huawei makes beautiful photos. Will you compare them to Xiaomi?
All the best Ben, stay strong!
Ben when you will be doing review of Sharp Aquos R7?
Can do one with huawei P50 pro?
Top ❤️
Cool
for the sharp, you should've used google camera, and compare it to stock camera app, to see who does a better job. honestly that should be your next video, sharp r7, stock vs gcam
That was a landslide.
Really pumped about replacing my Mate 40 with one of these. Same superfast AF, big sensor, great color. First flagship in a long time where I've looked at the shots and said: " no way can my phone do that."
Just don't go for xiaomi... believe me moving from emui to miui is a pain in the ass , you will lose all the consistency , fluidity and good performance that emui provides

Ah you’re a good boyfriend 😊 and your subscribers are very grateful for your late night efforts!
The Sharp does not use the full sensor I'm sure. This was mentioned last year when it was talked about with the "Leica" phone compared to the Sharp (Leica phone is just a rebranded Sharp).
Does anyone know if the Xiaomi uses the full sensor ?
The problem with these relatively large (for cell phones) sensors is the very short distance between the lens and the sensor. It's very difficult to get a lens to produce a circle to cover the full sensor.
Xiaomi used full sensor,it's custom imx 989 while Sharp used the standard mass production
Wondering if it's much different (better) than Xiaomi 11 ultra
i never used the aquos phone before but i love them & that's 240hertz refresh rate would be a game changer
We are interested to see a battery 🔋 test of the hiaomi 12s ultra
Now get the Xperia Pro-I and we'll have all 3 1-inch smartphones to compare!
I've seriously been trying to find comparison videos between any of these 3 devices and this is the only one I've found (thankfully from someone I trust that has been using the Xiaomi to death).
好帅😍
can you capture a 240fps slow mo, then speed it up to normal then replay it on the 240hz display. i wonder how leery that would look like
Love always ben
👍👍👍
Two camera beast
Gotta love how although iPhone has dominated Japan, Sharp is still in the fight and they refuse to die.
Sharp, Sony & Fujitsu 😅
Sharp's sales actually went up in the last 2 years if I am right. They are not the weakest Japanese player.
@@MrStevenAttila No they are definitely not the weakest one, it's just that they don't invest as much as other companies, due to well the "small" market of phones.
why not compare xiaomi to xperia pro i
Wow
Sharp aquos love it ❤️
you might need to mount the r7 on the tripod cause loads pics from r7 were taken under safe shutter speed
Watched all your videos of 12S Ultra.
12S Ultra vs 13 Pro Max please 🤠
Just the comparison I was really curious about. Everyone talking about the Xiaomi as if no other 1 inch camera phone exists
Important is to understand the Sony IMX Version numbering scheme. Imx9xx is the latest series.
👏👏👏👏👏
Is sharp r7 available in the US?
No, it forever remains a Japanese-only device.
Xiaomi grt, bt also Sharp welcome to flagships table first tym grt vid go on ben
I would definitely be interested in seeing what the difference is between the 12S ultra and Mi 11 Ultra.
I would love to see too
