Sharp's AQUOS Crystal lands on Sprint and Boost Mobile

Posted: 10 Oct 2014 03:27 PM PDT

You may remember the AQUOS Crystal, the screen to edge device launched by Sharp a couple of months ago and confirmed to be heading to US carrier Sprint. Well, I have played around with the handset and can say that the lack of bezels around the edge is just mind blowing, and it is a decent mid-range workhorse too.
