User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Great picture, but needs some tweaking out of the box
This is a terrific large flat panel TV. The sharpness and color is exceptional. The factory defaults were too saturated, however, and took some adjustment.

4 Stars Could be better
Almost all in this TV is right, the only one problem that I can see is the black color "it have not realism" as the others colors, therefore, for the money that paid I think could live with it.

5 Stars Wow
After it arrived, we could not believe the clarity and the quality it presented. We are very pleased with this purchase.

1 Star very expensive mistake
Sharp Aquos LC52D64U is horrible, it was delivered 3 weeks ago and I have spent all my tv viewing time since trying to tweak it.

Impossible to get colors right and when you get close on one channel, you invariably have to re-adjust on next channel.

Picture is only clear on up close shots, as soon as video switches to a medium to distant shot , all is out of focus. Same for DVD'S. My old Panosonic 32 inch CRT has 10 times better picture and I have never had to adjust the settings....ever!

Sharp support was no help, they stated that this was a HDTV and I could not expect to get a decent picture on non-HD channels. This is unbelievable, why would anyone buy a TV that you can only watch 6 channels or so, out of 200. Besides the HD channels only are clear on close up shots also, anything else is out of focus.

I will give Sharp one more chance/call and then I will send this item back, as my return window will expite shortly.

4 Stars Sharp Aquos LC52D64U
After careful use and adequate shakedown time, I find this LCD TV remarkably great. It is sharp and the visual angels of view are equally great. However, the black shiny plastic bezels is easy to scratch, and cannot be cleaned well due to this fact. Secondly the display is not as bright as it should be. Most images are darker when compared to other LCD screens.
