Sharp Aquos sense10 arrives with faster chipset, stronger AI camera, and fashion-forward colors
1 November 2025, 22:30:37
Sharp announced the Aquos sense10, which will go on sale in Japan on November 13, 2025, followed by launches in Taiwan, Indonesia, and Singapore. The new model blends improved processing and AI capabilities with a longer-lasting battery, an AI-refined camera system, and six colors inspired by current fashion trends.
The Aquos sense10 is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 Mobile Platform, delivering about 20 percent better CPU performance, roughly 40 percent higher GPU performance, and about 30 percent improved AI processing versus the previous model's chipset. Those gains translate to smoother gameplay, more responsive multimedia playback, and faster, more capable on-device AI features. The phone uses a Pro IGZO OLED display that dynamically adjusts refresh rate between 1 Hz and 120 Hz and supports a 240 Hz equivalent motion mode in compatible apps. With a peak brightness of 2000 nits for strong outdoor visibility and a 5,000 mAh battery, Sharp estimates up to two days of use under a 10-hours-per-day usage profile.
Sharp carried over AI-driven photography enhancements from its higher-end models and added new capabilities. The Aquos sense10 introduces an AI shadow-removal feature for food and document shots and a new "Showcase Mode" that suppresses reflections when shooting through glass, such as display cases or aquariums. Text capture benefits from automatic shadow correction and trapezoidal distortion correction to improve legibility. The camera system uses AI image synthesis processing that preserves more image detail than typical RAW pipelines, improving detail and tonal gradation in zoomed and low-light shots. Hardware includes a 50.3 MP main sensor with a 1/1.55-inch size to reduce noise in dim conditions, plus a 50.3 MP ultra-wide module and a 32 MP front camera.
A new AI calling feature called Vocalist lets users register their voice so the phone can identify and isolate it during calls, reducing background voices and noise so only the registered voice is transmitted to the other party for clearer conversations in noisy environments.
The Aquos sense10 will be offered in six colors inspired by three fashion themes: Casual, Kireime, and Basic. The headline shade, Denim Navy, combines the look of denim with leather-patch accents. Sharp is offering matching silicone cases plus special collaborations: SPINGLE sneaker-brand cases and denim-themed cases developed with KOJIMA GENES and BLUE SAKURA. The compact chassis measures approximately 149 x 73 x 8.9 mm and weighs about 166 g.
The phone meets a broad set of MIL-STD-810H test criteria for environmental and durability characteristics, with shock-resistance testing performed to MIL-STD-810G standards. Tests covered immersion, rain, vibration, humidity, temperature extremes, thermal shock, low-pressure operation and storage, and icing conditions. Sharp notes these tests verify performance under specific conditions but do not guarantee damage-free operation in every possible real-world situation.
For the first time in the Aquos sense lineup, the sense10 uses dual box speakers placed at the top and bottom, improving perceived sound pressure by about 25 percent and boosting bass pressure by roughly 85 percent compared with the prior model. The phone ships with eight new PHOTO STYLE filters created by professional photographers — options such as Evening Glow, Cool Night, Cinema Film, and Showa Retro — to let users apply distinct looks at capture time. The device runs Android 16 and supports Wi‑Fi 6/6E and Bluetooth 5.2.
