Key Features

AQUOS R11 SH-51G

・Capture stunning photos with one tap, regardless of distance: AI-powered telephoto camera and Leica-co-engineered camera system.

Equipped with the new 'Smart Fit Zoom' feature, where AI automatically recognizes subjects and optimizes framing for effortless photography. The Leica-co-engineered triple camera delivers beautiful detail reproduction even at up to 2.9x optical zoom. Additionally, a privacy-conscious feature automatically masks text information that could reveal personal data or location※1. The 'Blink Reduction' function ensures all subjects have their eyes open, preserving precious memories without the need for retakes※1.

・Immersive visual experience anywhere: Bright and clear Pro IGZO OLED display.

The approximately 6.5-inch Pro IGZO OLED display achieves high outdoor visibility and a comfortable handheld size, thanks to a peak brightness of 3,600 nits and slim bezels. The 'Smart Outdoor View' technology enhances dark areas and prevents crushed blacks. Combined with Dolby Atmos®-compatible speakers for immersive sound and an enhanced heat dissipation design, users can enjoy videos comfortably for extended periods.

・A new design that grows on you: Introducing Akarium, a new light experience.

A novel notification system using light. When the device is flipped over, a soft glow gently spreads, creating a comforting ambiance before sleep or upon waking※1. The camera design incorporates freeform curves, seamlessly blending into daily life (Design: miyake design). The new 'Home Decor' feature allows full customization of wallpapers, icons, and color schemes, creating a personalized space that uplifts your mood every time you look at it.
