The SH011 is a CDMA 1X WIN (later au 3G) compatible mobile phone developed by Sharp for the Japanese domestic market, marketed under the au brand by KDDI and Okinawa Cellular Telephone.

Overview

• It is the de facto successor to the SH004, with its camera function upgraded from 8.09 megapixels to 9.57 megapixels, with a zoom of 4.8x.
• In terms of design, the body features a multi-layer coating and utilizes a metallic-style frame to create a sense of luxury. Additionally, it features a design similar to the SH-02A, a model manufactured by Sharp for NTT Docomo.
• Notably, it is the final KCP+ / EV-DO Rev.A compatible device for personal use manufactured by Sharp for au, as well as the last model released among existing personal au mobile phones supporting KCP+ / EV-DO Rev.A.
• In order to focus efforts on enhancing the domestic smartphone lineup, Sharp temporarily withdrew from producing feature phones for au until the release of the AQUOS K SHF31, an Android-equipped feature phone (garaho) launched on February 20, 2015.
