Digital camera reviews of Sharp Aquos LC46D65U 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV
Digital camera Review: A "Sharp" Decision
Summary: 5 Stars
What a beautiful set!!! Sharp has done it again. This is the second Sharp Aquos I've purchased and I'm again completely satisfied with this latest choice. Amazon offered a deal that couldn't be passed up; $999.98, no tax, free shipping with "White Glove," delivery at no extra charge. What a great deal!!!
PROS: The set was ordered on Thursday(1/22/09)and I was notified by Amazon Friday(1/23/09)that it would be shipped by Ceva Logistics and would arrive on Tuesday(2/3/09). Ceva Logistics notified me by phone Monday(1/26/09)to confirm a delivery date of Wednesday(1/28/09)between 1:00 and 4:00pm. Ceva Logistics delivery personnel informed me that they could not set the LC46D65U on its stand (liability issue?) but did remove the set from the carton, plug it in and verify that all worked before asking for the required signatures. Extremely quick shipping and I felt the Ceva Logistics personnel were mostly helpful and quite friendly.
The LC46D65U was easily set up. The manual is extensive but has Quick Reference sections reducing set-up time, adjustment time, etc. Set-up menus within the set are simple to navigate. I personally found factory defaults excellent and have left them in place thus far. Many more ultra-fine settings are available from further within the menus to satisfy even the most critical viewer I would think.
The LC46D65U is physically striking with its piano black outlined screen, piano black stand, and a small light grey speaker panel running below the screen. The sets corners are quite square but I don't find this a distraction as other reviewers have mentioned.
The picture quality is outstanding. My input feed is satellite (no HD package as yet) and DVD. The LC46D65U renders all input sources with radiant color, crisp detail, black blacks, and excellent contrast. Input connections are numerous and cover the field for external hookups. I won't be using the LC46D65U with a PC, but the connection is there for those that may.
CONS: The remote is functional but has very small buttons and even when illuminated are still hard to see. I'm familiar with the button layout as my other Aquos has a very similar remote, but do feel for those purchasing their first Sharp Aquos and having to use the remote for the first time. It takes practice!!
The only other area I feel the LC46D65U lacks in, is audio. It is adequate but not as full as I would like or have become accustomed to. My 32" Aquos has quite a bit better sound and is a full two years older. A surround sound system would be the answer for those seeking movie theater sound.
All-in-all, the Sharp Aquos LC46D65U is an outstanding set. With Amazon's great price, no tax, and free shipping with "White Glove" delivery, you definitely can't go wrong. I honestly feel it's without question, the best deal out for those wanting a 46" LCD TV.
