We’ve witnessed many companies show how a smartphone camera is done “right”. Huawei used to hold the crown for some of the biggest camera sensors on a smartphone for multiple years. Earlier in 2021, Samsung took the lead with their Galaxy S21 Ultra, but this didn’t last for long, as Xiaomi came into the picture with the monstrous Mi 11 Ultra (which even has an entire screen as a viewfinder on its back).

The fingerprint sensors tech is also second to none – it covers 11 times more surface area than conventional fingerprint readers on other phones, which should make it much easier to use.
But! Let’s get back to the main course! While the impressive screen and fingerprint reader are yet to be tested, we have some actual image samples you can see now!
We’ve gathered a bouquet of 50 photos taken by the Sharp Aquos R6’s camera, and we hope you’ll enjoy them as much as we did:

Sharp Aquos R6: Portrait photo samples
The second batch of photos shows how good the camera is with portraits of people and mixed-light environments. Again, the background separation without special modes is rather impressive on almost every sample (especially the ones where the camera is closer to the subject).
Sharp Aquos R6: Studio photo samples
This set of snaps takes us to a control environment – a studio. While here the camera gets the advantage of good lighting, we can’t deny the vivid colors, and remarkable detail. Although, detail should be even greater on the uncompressed 20MP pictures.
Sharp Aquos R6: Monochrome photo samples
That’s definitely a niche category, but the lack of colors certainly doesn’t take away from the beauty of these photographs. The photos have great HDR, and they look dramatic – everything you want from a black & white photo. Of course, the pictures are taken with the main (and only) camera – not with a dedicated monochrome lens.
