Sharp GX40
Approx. Price
USD 70
A music-oriented clamshell phone featuring external playback controls and expandable storage.
The Sharp GX40 was a notable addition to the GX series, bridging the gap between basic feature phones and multimedia devices. Its defining feature was the focus on mobile music; it included dedicated external music keys on the lid and a microSD card slot—a significant upgrade over previous GX models that relied on small internal memory. The 2.0-inch QVGA main display offered the high level of sharpness expected from Sharp, while the 1.3-megapixel camera provided a step up from the standard VGA sensors of the time. It was a stylish, functional clamshell aimed at younger users who wanted a portable music player and phone in one.
