Sharp has a new phone out ... and Watch Playboy: Wet & Wild 3 (1991)it reminds us of every other phone that's coming out this year.
The Sharp's new Aquos S2 follows all the latest smartphone trends: large screen with minimal bezels, dual camera on the back. But even though Sharp has been in the tiny bezels game longer than anyone, the design feels oddly derivative.
More precisely, the Sharp Aquos S2 somehow manages to look like a ripoff of every other significant phone out there, including Andy Rubin's Essential Phone, the rumored iPhone 8, and the Samsung Galaxy Note series.
SEE ALSO: Glowing beer is a thing thanks to biohacking technologyThe Aquos S2 has a screen that stretches almost across its entire face, with just a notch carved out on top for the selfie camera, making it quite similar to the Essential Phone. The bottom bezel is larger, though, and it's reserved for the elongated home button, a la Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
And on the back, the vertical dual camera is a dead ringer for the iPhone 8, if you believe all the recent rumors and leaks.

As far as specs go, the screen is a 5.5-inch display with a 2,040 x 1,080 resolution. The processor is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 or 630, coupled with 4/6GB of RAM, 64/128GB of memory, 12-/8-megapixel cameras on the back, an 8-megapixel selfie cam on the front, and a 3,030mAh battery.

None of this will matter much to customers out of Asia, as China is currently the only market where the Aquos S2 is available and it's unlikely to go global. But it's one more reminder that the future of smartphones has tiny bezels, oddly shaped screens, and dual cameras.
