They're not as popular anymore but sharp used to produce some really nice TVs. Not sure about present day models. They seem to be similar to the brands you mentioned
Yup Sharp was the king back in the day. Made all sorts of appliances and electronics which were built like tanks. These days they are just a shadow of their former selves.
I assumed this Sharp TV would be the first to be made by Foxconn (owner of Sharp now) under the Sharp name. The previous were all made by hisense and those were pretty junk. Foxconn rebought the rights after the name deteriorated under hisense but due to the pricing and energy star sticker this may be another rebadged hisense set

Am I the only one that feels offended and old from this comment? C'mon
Not offended but feeling old....yes. :-(
Yep, my old sharp tv back in 07 was amazing. Still running today. Bought a sharp tv in 2017 and it smelled like burning rubber every time I turned it on. After 3 months, and trying everything I could think of to burn off the fumes, I gave up and sold it. I then bought a Sony and have had 0 issues since.
I feel ya on that Zelda, just means people these days are not to intelligent when stating a comment such as never hearing of a company like Sharp. Lol unless its in the store in front of people's faces they are clueless. Speaking of Zelda...probably never heard of that either 😂
Within expectation. But somewhat disappointed it can not hit the 300 nit from the bestbuy specs page.
For HDR, you guys want at least 300+ nits, with only 243, over time , taking into account a little dimming from wear/tear, this will not hold up for HDR.
HOWEVER, It is certainly a very good SDR set.
Minimal backlight bloom, 1:1 pixel mapping, no spatial dithering (disappointed, i'd prefer it). Supports 444 in 8bit 23/24/30/60hz.
Does not support 10bit 444 in 23/24/30hz modes. TCL Tvs in roku platforms do.
~95.6% Srgb gamut. NO WIDE GAMUT for Hdr spec.
PC connection problem.
Everytime you turn the tv On and Off, you have to reset the PC-mode to get it back to 444. It defaults to 420, even when you've had pc mode turned on BEFORE turning it off.
This is ALOT, 21 button presses on this TV, so unfortunately I will be returning the unit.
I understand this is something they will fix in a firmware update, (i'm on the latest firmware), but with the pandemic, the fact that it's a low priority product for them, I'm not gonna wait it out.
This is probably not a problem anyone using this tv for something else will worry about.
I avoided the Samsung $530 tv because The Tizen OS also has PC interconnect issues where setting 23/24hz mode disables 444. This is again not a problem if you're not a cadence-enthusiast.
That said, the samsung unit would still be better than THIS particular unit for PC use, as it will reboot to 444 60hz mode just fine.
Bruh for real I felt old when I read that and I haven't even reached 40 yet
This seems to be the only set that Sharp sells in the US that is made directly by Sharp.

I guess they're seeing if it's even viable for them to return back to the US market by only having one model.
The original (Japanese) Sharp always made high quality Aquos TVs before they left the US market the first time; I'd say good quality and dependable, but who knows about warranty support down the line if they decide to leave again.
