CNET Editors' review - Sharp AQUOS LC-46D62U
Hide

Very good

7.2

out of 10
CNET Editor's rating: 7.2 out of 10
Reviewed by David Katzmaier
Review date: 10/24/06
Release date: 10/1/06

The good: Best black-level performance of any non-CRT we've tested yet; resolves every detail of 1080i resolution sources; image stays relatively true from off-angle for an LCD; distinctive two-tone styling.

The bad: Inaccurate color temperature; irregular bands across screen visible in some scenes; lacks picture-in-picture; no PC input.

The bottom line: Although it delivers the deepest color of black we've seen yet, a couple of picture quality problems keep the Sharp LC46D62U from being a top, high-end LCD choice.

Product brief - Sharp AQUOS LC-46D62U
Hide

Description: The Sharp AQUOS LC-46D62U is a 46-inch, liquid crystal display television. Compared to other liquid crystal display TVs on the market, it is midpriced at around $1,660. This unit is an LCD display, which is generally the best kind of flat-panel screen for viewing in brightly-lit rooms.

Pros: Has a 46-inch screen size. This is larger than the average TV on the market today, but is to be expected for a TV of this price. With built-in HDTV compatibility, this unit can display images that are significantly sharper and more realistic than regular television, as long as the source is high definition. (It can easily render standard-resolution digital TV broadcasts and also depict the full resolution of widescreen DVD video.) The 3:2 pulldown feature of this set reduces artifacts that can occur when motion pictures are transferred to a digital format such as DVD.

Cons: None noted, given available product data.

Suitability: A liquid crystal display TV, suited for home entertainment as well as work place applications. In general, a wide aspect display such as this one is ideal for DVD movies recorded in the popular 16:9 format, as well as high definition programming.

Value: In general, this TV's features are in line with its price. However, you would usually pay around 35% more to get a liquid crystal display TV having similar viewable size.

Suggestions: (1) For assistance in shopping for a new HDTV, read CNET editors' Ultimate HDTV Buying Guide . (2) If donating or repurposing your old TV is not a viable option, CNET encourages households to recycle their electronics. Please explore the following website to find a recycling center in your area Electronics Take Back Coalition .
