Sharp's new 904SH for Japan is being advertised as the first true VGA mobile phone in the world. It has a 480 x 640 pixel display. The best displays up to this point have been QVGA (Q is for Quarter). That means that the 904SH will have resolution that is four times better than the best you can currently get.
What can you use that visual treat for? The 904SH comes with a 3.2 megapixel camera. You can play 3D video games and they are made even more enjoyable thanks to a Motion Control Sensor. The phone has Bluetooth and uses that Bluetooth to recognize other phones close by so you can instant message with them. An interesting feature will make the phone hard to steal as well. The 904SH also has a Face Recognition feature which is a unique protection system. It’ll recognize facial characteristics of the owner, and will probably be able to lock out those who don’t match these characteristics.
Given the features and the display, the phone doesn't seem overly expensive. It will cost Japanese subscribers about 210 USD.
