SHARP Launches AQUOS wish5s with Safety Features, Smarter AI and Premium Design

SHARP has officially introduced the AQUOS wish5s, a new smartphone designed to combine everyday safety, durability, and smart features with a refined new look. Building on the success of the AQUOS wish series, the latest model adds an elegant metallic finish, AI-enhanced photography tools, immersive 8way audio, and the signature SOS security functions users have come to appreciate.

Priced at S$399, the AQUOS wish5s will be available in Singapore from 17 April 2026 through SHARP Singapore’s official online channels.

Stylish New Look Meets Everyday Comfort

The AQUOS wish5s debuts a sleek metallic design available in Navy and Copper, giving the device a more premium appearance while maintaining its practical everyday feel.

It retains the popular “free curve” design supervised by miyake design, first introduced in the previous model. The softly rounded edges are designed for a comfortable grip, while the metallic texture adds a timeless and modern touch.

AI-Powered Camera Upgrades

Photography gets a boost with AI-powered imaging tools that help users capture better photos effortlessly.

The smartphone features an approximately 50.1-megapixel rear camera, powered by SHARP’s proprietary ProPix lite engine, delivering clearer and more vibrant shots, especially in low light and portrait scenes.

New intelligent features include:

  • Automatic scene detection that selects the best shooting mode
  • AI Shadow Removal for cleaner close-up shots such as food photos
  • Reflection reduction when shooting through glass surfaces

These enhancements aim to make everyday photography simpler and more polished.

Immersive 8way Audio Experience

For entertainment lovers, the AQUOS wish5s introduces 8way audio technology, designed to create a richer listening experience when paired with wireless earbuds or over-ear headphones.

By simulating sound from multiple directions, users can enjoy a wider and more realistic soundstage for music, movies, and streaming content.

Built for Tough Everyday Use

The AQUOS wish5s is engineered for durability, making it ideal for users with active lifestyles.

It supports IPX9 waterproof protection, meaning it can withstand high-pressure water exposure and temperatures of up to 80°C. The phone also meets MIL-STD-810H U.S. military-grade durability standards for:

  • Water resistance
  • Dust resistance
  • Shock protection
  • Drop resistance on concrete surfaces

The casing is also made from approximately 60% recycled plastic, offering a more eco-conscious design.

Signature Safety Features Return

One of the standout features of the AQUOS wish series is its built-in security system.

The AQUOS wish5s includes a vibration-activated SOS alert, which triggers a loud alarm and automatically sends the user’s location to pre-registered contacts when the phone is shaken, even if it is inside a bag.

The device also comes with an AI-powered call assistant that can help detect and block suspicious calls, adding another layer of peace of mind.

Smooth Performance and Long Battery Life

The smartphone is equipped with a 6.6-inch display featuring a 120Hz refresh rate, delivering smoother scrolling and a more fluid viewing experience.

Under the hood, it runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, with configurations of up to:

  • 8GB RAM
  • 256GB storage

Storage can also be expanded via microSD cards up to 2TB.

Powering the device is a large 5,000mAh battery, built to last through streaming, browsing, gaming, and everyday use. SHARP’s Intelligent Charge feature also helps extend long-term battery health by optimising charging habits.
