 Hi, this is Jeff with The Verge and today we're taking a look at possibly the greatest cell phone ever made of all time. This is the special Nerve edition of Sharp's SH-06D. If you're an Evangelion fan, you're probably pretty psyched to see it actually live and in person. It's a 3D phone and the computer display looks exactly like the Magi computer system from the movies, if you're familiar. Because it's 3D, the images really pop off the screen and even though it's 3D, the viewing angles are really nice. There's a bit of a color shift when you get beyond, say, 30, 40 degrees, but otherwise it's perfectly viewable. You can see the UI is super information dense. You've got a lot of stuff, everything from, you know, how much active memory you have down here to your clock, your battery, calendar. We have a music player up here. The playlist is empty so I can't show you right now. There's some original 3D Evangelion programming that's been produced specifically for the phone. And if we take a look at the outside, we actually have this Nerve back panel here. It looks like it was ripped off one of the bunkers in the film. On the side we have an antenna and the antenna isn't just for one SEG, it's actually for Not TV, which is a new television broadcasting venture that NTT Docomo is involved with. It offers original programming that you don't get on a regular terrestrial broadcast and it has deep integration with social networks, things like Twitter and so on. So yeah, that's pretty cool. I mean, the only drawback really is that it's running Gingerbread under the hood so you're not going to get the same nice hollow apps, you're not going to get the great snappy performance that you would get on an ICS phone. But otherwise, I mean, is there a cooler looking phone on the market right now? I sincerely doubt it. That is the Nerve Special Edition SH06D from Sharp at NTT Docomo's Summer Launch Event in Tokyo.
