Sharp Aquos LC-52D65U

You get five HDMI ports with Sharp's 52-inch Aquos LC-52D65U, but this set's color setup needs some TLC.

Five HDMI ports. Power-saving light sensor enabled by default.

Lackluster picture contrast. Color calibration recommended.

Sharp Aquos LC-D65U review: Sharp Aquos LC-D65U

Relatively inexpensive; accurate color after calibration; energy-efficient; numerous picture controls; superb connectivity with five HDMI inputs; understated, no-nonsense styling.

Produces lighter blacks than some LCDs; poor off-angle viewing characteristics; below-average standard-definition processing.

Excellent energy savings and decent picture quality make the Sharp LC-52D65U a solid value among bigger-screen LCDs.

A scientific, in-depth analysis with side-by-side comparisons

The Sharp LC-42D65UT is a somewhat expensive 42-inch 1080p HDTV. It also doesn’t have a whole lot ot back up the price. It did excel in some tests, such as color representation, but also failed to meet expectations in other tests, such as our motion...

Sharp Aquos LC-52D65U

The Sharp has stellar processing in some cases. Horizontal and Vertical line information was displayed with no dithering in our HQV Film Resolution Loss Test. The processing was better than even many very high end TVs and one of the only units testing...

Sharp Aquos LC-52D65U

Sharp's latest 52-inch HD LCD TV, the Aquos LC-52D65U, is full of connection options and functionality that puts it above the rest and performs nicely in testing. It features 1080p HD resolution with a 52-inch screen and 5 HDMI connections and its...

5 HDMI ports ; Power-saving room light sensor ; Very good HD video output

Mediocre SD video output ; Tweaking of settings required for best picture

The 1080p HDTV resolution on this TV is pretty nice in the sense that it shows all pixels on the TV at once and doesn't "overscan" as some other similar TVs do. If you enable the Movie Picture preset in the settings, it allows for more advanced color...

Sharp LC-46D65U

The HD picture on the LC-46D65U was very defined once we calibrated the unit. There was a certain lack of depth as the picture information appeared somewhat flat to me. I believe this was caused in part by an overactive anti-glare screen, which also...
