In case you're wondering how these are related to the Japan-exclusive Aquos R8 duo, the R8s phones are basically the same except for selling in a new market.
$735 for regular $1k for pro

Sharp is a way less known phone brand here in Taiwan. For the price of the regular, you could get the Xiaomi 13 or a Galaxy S23, and for the price of the pro you could straight up get the Xperia 1 V. All of the phones above would probably also have better customer support than Sharp.
Sharp gives 3 os updates and 5 years of security updates. Unlike Sony
Can't deny that. It's quite absurd a company big as Sony can't deliver the same software support as others. Though what I meant by customer support are the availability of stores, accessories, customer online/phone/in store support, repairs, 3rd party repairs and such.
Like, if your battery went bad or the screen cracked and need a replacement, you're probably more likely to find a replacement for Sony phones than Sharp ones. I think to some extent, that is more important than software updates.
