Fujitsu Arrows Alpha F-51F Returns With Power, Style, and That Sweet SD Card Slot
Once a familiar name in the mobile world, Fujitsu is back in the game with its latest release, the Arrows Alpha F-51F, exclusively for the Japanese market via NTT Docomo. Manufactured under the FCNT brand (now part of Lenovo), this sleek device is a reminder that Fujitsu isn’t done just yet – and they’re doing more than just rebranding Motorolas.
The F-51F steps into the upper midrange segment with a 6.4-inch FHD+ OLED display boasting a 144Hz refresh rate. Powering the phone is the Dimensity 8350, paired with a generous 12GB RAM and 512GB storage, which is expandable via microSD – a welcome feature that’s becoming rare in 2025 smartphones.
Photography lovers won’t be disappointed either: it packs a 50MP main camera with a 1/1.56-inch LYT-700C sensor, a 50MP ultrawide, and a 50MP selfie shooter. It runs on the latest Android 15 and houses a 5,000mAh battery with 90W wired charging support. The Type-C port even supports DisplayPort 1.4, turning your phone into a workstation in seconds.
Durability is key here. The Arrows Alpha F-51F is IP68/IP69 rated, so whether you’re caught in a downpour or hit the beach, it’s ready to survive. Available in classic black and white, it’s got a clean and premium aesthetic – and yes, it looks nothing like your usual Lenovo fare.
While official pricing hasn’t been released, rumors suggest a launch around ¥90,000 (approx. $600), though Japanese carrier discounts will likely bring it down. For international users, there’s good news and bad: a SIM-free version is coming this summer without the bloatware, but keep in mind that Japanese phones often struggle outside their home turf due to band incompatibilities and software quirks.
The real cherry on top? The inclusion of a microSD card slot. It might seem like a small deal, but enthusiasts know better. A quality UHS-3 card can handle 4K video recording, fast read speeds, and won’t slow down day-to-day performance. This makes the Arrows Alpha F-51F a solid pick not just for nostalgia’s sake, but also for real-world functionality.
It’s not just a re-entry – it’s a subtle flex. Whether or not the Arrows Alpha F-51F makes waves globally, one thing’s for sure: Fujitsu still knows how to build a compelling phone.
