Waiting for its release

About a month ago, Sharp Sidekick LX Shuriken was FCC approved. No information on a future release for this handset has appeared since then. The device has made an appearance, although still a low ground one, in a new spy shot.

Sharp Sidekick LX Shuriken is supposed to be the fourth such device from the series of such phones. When compared to previous models, it brings only slight differences and certainly not design ones. The device looks highly similar to the others, although specifications are still incomplete, which makes a comparison difficult when it comes to performances.

The 3-inch screen will surely prove to be highly useful for handling a large number of media files on it and watching videos at top quality. Aside from this, there are few upgrades when it comes to its appearance, although the design looks more polished than before. Unfortunately, producers used a plastic case with this device, but the same was the case with previous models.

The 400 x 208 pixel resolution matches the phone's large display screen for best results. Sharp Sidekick LX Shuriken runs on Danger v4.4 operating system and is also capable of EDGE technology.

This smartphone is targeted especially at those handset users looking for entertainment from their devices. Sidekick phones bring evolved gaming solutions and also a QWERTY keypad which makes it possible to manage the personal blog easily and introduce new posts without needing the user to be anywhere near a PC.

Sharp Sidekick LX Shuriken should be out on the market sometime until the end of the year, with high hopes for the next future months. The device will also benefit from an advertising campaign that is rumored to have Lil' Romeo and Master P as the ones to promote it to the young audience that this device is targeted at.
