Fantastic --Worth the extra money!

 

Well worth the extra money for 1080p. Why not get the best? Somebody has to.

Picture quality is very detailed for over-the-air HD -- stunning. Tuner and user interface is relatively easy to use

The user manual could offer more information

Good picture, not good for XBOX 360

 

"When I got it home and set it up, I noticed great picture quality out of the box. Backlight brightness control is a definite plus. I hooked it up to my playstation 3 over hdmi and 360 over component. The picture would cut out and come back...

Easy Setup, Great Picture, Lots of connections

Xbox 360 over component doesn't work well

Same as LC-32GP3U

"My husband & I purchased the 32" Sharp Aquos TV. It has been great. The picture quality is excellent. My son changes it to wide screen when he visits. However, we prefer full panel tv screen. No complaints about this tv except that since so much is...

Sound volume doesn't go up loud enough for us.

Product Specifications

Sharp's AQUOS LC-32GP2U is the second generation 32" LCD TV sporting a 1920 x 1080 pixel format. The LC-32GP2U has a very good 2000:1 static contrast ratio, a brightness of 450 cd/m2 and a decent number of HDMI ports (three). There is already a third generation LC-32GP3U but the price sweet spot is on the LC-32GP2U with a $1199.99 price. The $1199.99 price is a good price for a 1080p-capable 32" LCD TV.
