Garaho (ガラホ) is a genre of Japanese feature phones based on classic Keitai designs, but with the Android (or, in a few cases, the KaiOS) operating system. They are a cross between the conventional form factor and the modern smartphone. They mostly do not come with Google Play Services, but can sideload apps using ADB. Some of these devices can be rooted to gain more control. Some work outside of Japan.
Kyocera, Sharp, and FCNT are the most notable Garaho manufacturers. The Sharp AQUOS K (2015) model SHF31, released by au on February 20th, 2015, was the first Garaho device, it ran Android 4.4.
