Sharp FX Plus (AT&T)

 

It's good to see tier-one carriers giving smaller manufacturers a chance. The Sharp FX Plus for AT&T follows in the footsteps of the original Sharp FX. Like its predecessor, the "Plus" version is also a side-slider phone with a full QWERTY keyboard,...

The Sharp FX Plus is a side-sliding Android smartphone with a decent keyboard, good call quality, and 2GB external memory preloaded

Battery life is short on Sharp's FX Plus, and the 600MHz processor slows things down. The keyboard keys are also a tad flat

The Sharp FX Plus is a budget Android 2.2 smartphone for certain first-timers, but when it comes to some features, you get what you pay for.

Sharp FX Plus (AT&T)

 

The Sharp FX Plus is a slim keyboard slider that offers Android on the cheap.

For a free smartphone, the FX Plus provides basic Android functionality at a low cost. Texting-crazy teens looking for their first smartphone will certainly prefer the better keyboard, 4G speeds, and bolder colors of the T-Mobile Sidekick 4G. Sure,...

Sharp FX Plus (AT&T)

 

The screen slides up to reveal a solid, four-row QWERTY keyboard, which looks a lot like T-Mobile's Sidekick 4G. Unlike the Sidekick, however, the FX Plus lacks the extra fifth row of dedicated number keys. Still, the slightly raised, flat keys are...

Inexpensive. Solid QWERTY keyboard. Great battery life

Sluggish performance. Poor camera

The Sharp FX Plus is the best keyboarded Android phone on AT&T, but there are better options out there if you're willing to go touch-screen-only.

"FX plus could have been great, but isn't"

 

I bought this phone after the screen went out on my MyTouch 3G Slide. I liked the price for a brand new unlocked one I found on ebay. I compared it to my old phone with geekaphone.com and it was very comparable. It has a 600mhz processor, just like my...

Android phone with a nice physical qwerty keyboard. Appears to be fairly durable.

This phone is so slow and unresponsive!

"The funky and dashing new sharp fx plus is amazing!"

 

The funky and dashing new sharp fx plus is greatly attractive to most text-friendly users.

This is a new competitor with other android phones, and is definitely better than the original Sharp FX because of a not-so-laggy screen.

worst design

 

The screen lock system is very bad. The lock opens when the screen is tapped twice,there are more chances of making calls on its own when kept in pocket. It turn off and on when the slide is opened.

Phone has good basic uses

 

I have had this phone for over a year. I do not do internet or anything too fancy with the phone however, I do text and this keyboard is great for that. The phone stays lit and the keys do too, which is great at night. My mom likes this one too because...
