Sharp already introduced us to its
BD and
E series
at CES this year, but this here A team is something different. Debuting first in Japan, this threesome is comprised of the 52-inch LC-52AE6, 46-inch LC-46AE6 and 40-inch LC-40AE6, all of which sport 1,920 x 1,080 resolutions and a digital TV tuner. The whole crew also includes 120Hz de-judder technology, a 15,000:1 contrast ratio, 450 nits of brightness and 176-degree viewing angles. Moreover, each one features an integrated ambient light sensor to adjust the backlight automatically depending on surrounding light, and they also pack a pair of stereo speakers in case your surround rig is currently out of order. The larger two are expected to ship on May 15th, while the small fellow heads out on April 10th; as for pricing, we're hearing ¥390,000 ($4,048), ¥260,000 ($2,698) and ¥200,000 ($2,076) from largest to most diminutive.

120 Hz as in 3d ready ?
Overpriced, no RGB LED backlighting, only 120Hz (instead of 240Hz). Looks like a circa 2007 TV. *yawn* Release something that can at least hold a candle to a plasma in terms of performance will ya?
Sure!
$1,000,000 for 40-inch OLED :P
ok.. lol @ the photoshopped image, the upperleft corner is brushed with black when the screen isn't exactly black..
And I agree with MadMike, it costs too much for what it delivers
Awesome photo editing.
Black is the new black.
MSpaint is the new Photoshop
The color picker is overrated anyway.
MadMike I think So
Overpirced!!
Those prices look way off, there is no way they would introduce a fairly basic 52" LCD for $4,000!
I agree with others, these tv's look horrible, plus they are designed by Sharp, which is no better quality then any 'ol Insignia or LG out there.
Does anyone even own a Sharp LCD TV?
Yes I own 2, not sure what country you are from but Sharp sell their socks off in the USA.
I have a Sharp AQUOS 52D64U that I got last year and its still freaking badass. Blu-ray, HD-DVD, and video games all look awesome. Won't have to be getting a new set anytime soon I'll tell you that.
Judder?
It does look kinda 'shopped.
I think they are legit.

Isn't that the same TV just Photoshopped smaller and smaller and smaller....
Well from the looks of the black spots on the upper left corner of the tv's i dont think the person who edited the photos had photoshop so no.
There's nothing sharp about Sharp products anymore.
