Sharp Quattron LC-70LE847U price range: $2,125.00 - $3,297.00
- Reviewed by: David Katzmaier
- Reviewed on: 12/11/2012
The good: The Sharp LC-LE847U series delivers relatively accurate color and a matte screen that works well in bright rooms. The no-nonsense black metal design has a higher-end feel. Its feature set includes excellent help and support options, built-in Wi-Fi, and a remote with three programmable keys for easy access to favorite apps.
The bad: This high-end Sharp has middling picture quality. It showed lighter black levels than its less expensive sibling, especially obvious in dark scenes under home theater lighting. The extra yellow pixel of Quattron has no positive impact, and the image showed a bluish cast in dark areas. The Sharp also failed to properly handle film-based (1080p/24) sources, causing slight stutter in certain scenes. 3D glasses cost $50 each and are not included.
The bottom line: Since they don't come with improved picture quality, the extra features of the Sharp LC-LE847U series aren't worth the extra money it demands.
