Sharp Aquos Quattron LC-46LE821E television review

The Sharp Aquos Quattron LC-46LE821E comes stuffed full of technology. It is highlighted for that extra sub-pixel, which adds yellow to the normal red, green and blue palette, promising a wider colour range than ever before. It is most likely, however,...

Great picture, once you get it under control, slim profile, good menus, USB media playback, Freeview HD tuner

No IPTV services, reds look a little suspect, home networking doesn't offer video playback, price

The Sharp Quattron will give you a stunning picture, but is it a picture that justifies the £400 to £500 bump over rival Sony or Samsung models of similar specs? We can't confidently say yes

Sharp Aquos LC-46LE821E review

While most TV manufacturers have focused on adding a third dimension to their 2010 TV ranges, Sharp chose to buck the trend and go in a different direction by introducing its Quad Pixel technology. This adds a fourth, yellow, sub-pixel to the...

Sharp Aquos LC-46LE821E 46in LED-Lit LCD TV

Sharp mixes in a yellow sub-pixel to the usual red, green and blue ones with great effect.

If Quad Pixel technology had been developed by the likes of Sony, Samsung or Panasonic, you can bet your bottom dollar they’d be screaming about it at the top of their marketing lungs from the top of the nearest mountain. Sadly, Sharp doesn't seem to...

Sharp LC46LE821E

Class leading colour response, appealingly slender chassis, solid connectivity

Black colours look a bit grey, the set is expensive, and there are no online features

Sharp LC40LE821E

Sharp's LC40LE821E demonstrates an exceptional colour performance compromised by a few minor niggles ..

Unparalleled colour performance, menu system

Some minor backlight inconsistencies

The Sharp LC40LE821 comes very close to being the best LCD TV we have come across for some time. Ultimately, black level ability and a touch of backlight inconsistency let it down; but the colour performance alone still makes this TV worthy of serious...

Sharp Aquos LC-46LE821E 46in quad-pixel TV

An innovative four-pixel display design that produces rich colour quality – albeit at a price.

Sharp’s Quattron technology really does produce excellent colour reproduction, and it's good to see Sharp doing something genuinely innovative at a time when all its rivals are following the 3D bandwagon like a herd of sheep.

Ethernet, why did they bother

Had this TV for about a year now. Happy with the picture, I'm no videophile but setup was straight forward for my liking. Sound like in any home cinema is best left to the dedicated amp section. Sometimes the EPG slows down and only way to get out of...
