Sharp LC40LE830U Quattron 40-inch 1080p 120 Hz LED-LCD HDTV review

Internet TV has finally become something that people want – in fact they are now coming to expect it from their TV, and the Sharp LC40LE830U Quattron 40-inch 1080p 120 Hz LED-LCD HDTV, Black is one that you want to have in your front room.  


Stream movies directly to your TV via NetFlix or other providers, update your Facebook status or tweet via Twitter, all from the comfort of your living room now you can do it all from your TV remote whilst watching your favourite show.  


Fancy watching the latest movie?  No longer do you need to take a trip to the store to do so, just press the remote and whatever you fancy can stream directly to your Sharp LC40LE830U Quattron 40-inch 1080p 120 Hz LED-LCD HDTV, Black.  



A majority of people who’ve used this TV in the past have favourable things to say about its performance, and the availability of three different variants to choose from (the 810, 830, & 835 series) gives you the option to save some money if you so choose.
Although rated highly, knowing a little before you actually go ahead and buy the product makes sense and here are important aspects you should know of.

Pros: 
The Sharp LC40LE830U LED TV is easy to setup and offers great value for money. It is good for watching fast paced videos and is great for gaming enthusiasts as well. It offers superior display and comes with good connectivity alternatives. Access to different internet based applications is a definite plus, and so is the fact that you don’t have to worry about the unit heating up excessively after being used for prolonged periods.
Cons: 
There are aspects that one can view as downsides, although this depends on each individual’s perspective and requirements. For instance, while some might find the remote control a little outdated, some others like its simplicity. The different settings and options, however, can take a little time to get used to. Lastly, the HDMI cable points are located on the TV’s side, and not the rear, and this is something that certain users have a problem with.

120Hz Fine Motion Enhanced
Sharp uses a unique algorithm to create images that help smooth sharp edges on moving objects, like a running play in football, a player swinging a bat, or a car chase. By creating new images and filling in the gaps, motion appears smoother and less jumpy. The result is a smoother picture with more detail.
X-Gen Panel
Sharp's X-Gen panel provides a wider aperture allowing more light to pass through, which requires fewer backlighting elements to create an extremely bright image. Also, because the re-designed LCD panel has less ribs than traditional panels, the pixels are better sealed which enables nearly all light to be blocked resulting in darker images.
Mega Contrast
With a full LED backlight, luminance can be controlled with greater precision than with a CCFL backlight because of the differences in intensity control properties. Compared with the modulation rate of a typical CCFL backlight, the ultra-bright LED backlight is capable of modulating down to an incredible rate. Through the combined operation of Sharp's X-Gen panel, which has a high contrast ratio and Sharp's ultra-brilliant LED backlight system, AQUOS LE830 Series LCD TVs achieve an ultra-high contrast ratio that delivers unprecedented degrees of black and images that project incredible depth.
VyperDrive
VyperDrive game mode helps to eliminate the lag time between the game console and TV. When Game Mode is activated, the signal is streamlined, resulting in transmission that is five times faster than normal mode. The result is a game experience you'll never forget.
