With the LE835 series, Sharp applies its Quattron technology to the 3D HDTV, producing brilliant 3D images with reduced crosstalk blur. Immerse yourself in the latest 3D title, complete with spacious sound to complete the experience. And whether you're enjoying 2D or 3D content, you'll benefit from Sharp technologies like the proprietary AQUOS LED backlighting system and X-Gen LCD panel, which uses an enhanced Active Contrast algorithm to deliver a dynamic contrast ratio of 8,000,000:1. Translation? Serious picture quality. This series also incorporates Sharp's AquoMotion 240 feature, which virtually eliminates perceptible blur and motion artifacts in fast-moving video. The LE835 Series also boasts Internet connectivity, including Vudu apps, Netflix streaming video, CinemaNow, Blockbuster On Demand, Alphaline Entertainment, and Napster. Built-in Wi-Fi makes connecting a breeze. This also makes for easy access to AQUOS Advantage Live, the industry's leading online support system, to help ensure you get the most out of your new television.
Quattron LED LCD TVs employ a four-color filter, adding the color Y (yellow) to the three colors of R (red), G (green) and B (blue). Quad Pixel technology produces this groundbreaking combination expanding the color gamut and faithfully rendering nearly all colors that can be discerned while introducing never-before-seen colors to LCD TVs, like sparkling golds, Caribbean blues and sunflower yellows.
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 redesigned LCD panel has fewer ribs than traditional panels, the pixels seal more completely, enabling nearly all light to be blocked and resulting in deeper blacks.

3D Technology Checklist
This product is 3D-related. To help you get a great 3D experience, use the checklist below to ensure you have everything you need. 3D viewing requires: | A Display First, you'll need a 3D-ready display--whether it's a 3D HDTV, 3D projector, or 3D computer monitor. These displays have more processing power than standard 2D models for displaying 3D images in rapid succession. |
 | A Source Your display may be ready for 3D playback, but you'll still need a device to read 3D content. This can be a cable box with a subscription to a 3D channel, a 3D Blu-ray Disc player, or a PlayStation 3 system. |
 | 3D Content 3D content--the actual entertainment, in other words--will be played back using the source mentioned above, whether it's a 3D broadcast from your cable provider, a 3D Blu-ray Disc, or a 3D video game. |
 | 3D Glasses For now, the vast majority of 3D HDTVs require glasses for 3D viewing. Many use powered "active shutter" glasses, others polarized "passive" glasses. You'll need one pair per viewer, and they'll have to be compatible with your display, whether they're the same brand, or a pair of "universal" glasses designed to work across brands. |
 | HDMI Cable To connect your source (such as a 3D Blu-ray Disc player) to your display, you'll need a high-speed HDMI cable. Cables with this designation feature bandwidth speeds up to 10.2 Gbps (gigabits per second), for carrying the 3D signal without any loss of quality. |
If you want to get more information about 3D, shop our 3D products, watch videos, or interact with other customers, we invite you to visit 3D 101, our customer center about everything 3D. | |

3D Experience, Now Featuring Quattron Technology
The AQUOS Quattron 3D system produces the brightest 3D image resolution on the market today, significantly reduced 3D "crosstalk blur" and a dynamic contrast ratio of 8,000,000:1. The Quattron LE835 Series 3DTVs employ Sharp's quad pixel technology, the X-Gen LCD Panel, Frame Rate Enhanced Driving and LED backlight side-mount scanning with a newly enhanced Active Contrast algorithm, to deliver a superior 3D experience. The optional pairs of advanced 3D glasses offer a versatile 3D-to-2D mode conversion allowing one person to watch in 2D while others are watching in 3D. In addition, Sharp's three Spacious 3D Sound modes complete the immersive experience when viewing movies, concerts or any 3D programming.Quattron Quad Pixel Technology
Quattron LED LCD TVs feature advanced technologies enabling picture quality that has been difficult or impossible to reproduce using conventional LCD displays. When combined with Sharp's 1080p X-Gen LCD panel, the displays offer dramatic reduction in energy consumption compared with conventional CCFL LCD TVs. These technologies work in tandem to optimize picture quality and contrast ratios while reducing energy use.Quattron LED LCD TVs employ a four-color filter, adding the color Y (yellow) to the three colors of R (red), G (green) and B (blue). Quad Pixel technology produces this groundbreaking combination expanding the color gamut and faithfully rendering nearly all colors that can be discerned while introducing never-before-seen colors to LCD TVs, like sparkling golds, Caribbean blues and sunflower yellows.
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 redesigned LCD panel has fewer ribs than traditional panels, the pixels seal more completely, enabling nearly all light to be blocked and resulting in deeper blacks.
AquoMotion 240
AquoMotion 240 Technology improves fast moving images by combining Sharp's 120Hz Fine Motion Enhanced Technology with 120-backlight scanning. Fine Motion Advanced processing creates and inserts 60 unique frames a second, which smoothes out edges that occur between frames in the original footage. The backlight scanning works with the panel refresh rate to further reduce perceived motion blur and improve overall clarity and picture quality.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.Environmental Advantages

This is a beautiful TV
I purchased this TV from Paul's TV through Amazon earlier this month.
This is a beautiful TV. It is also incredibly thin, which is great for the wall mounted installation.
I purchased a pair of Sharp 3D glasses on ebay.
I have the TV hooked up to a HTPC with a GT430 video card . I watched "Resident evil afterlife" 3D Blu-ray. It was breathtaking.
I did not test the OTA HDTV tuner as I don't have an antenna hookup in the room where the TV is at the moment.
I have not tried the DLNA feature either.
Pros :
The picture is very bright and just amazing. Much better than other manufacturers like Sony and Vizio.
This is a really nice size for a large room
When watching 1080p/60Hz sources, the picture is incredibly smooth. The 240 Hz refresh rate is absolutely amazing. I may have to watch this TV more even though the screen is only 1/4" of the size of my projection screen.
The wifi really works well. I have it working with wireless N on the 5 GHz band connected to a Cisco E3000 router about 50ft away. I can stream movies/previews from Vudu at the maximum quality, over 9 Mbit/s sustained. This may seem little compared to the 300 Mbit/s theoretical of wireless N, but it is actually impressive that there are no dropouts.
The price was excellent. It was the same as the 832 model at Costco which is not 3D. I see that it has now gone up by over $500 since I purchased it.
It has a lot of inputs - 4 HDMI, 1 component, 1 VGA
Cons :
3D picture is dimmer than 2D. And you can't watch the picture lying down with the 3D glasses, the polarization dims the picture too much.
The built-in sound is weak. But that's expected on all TVs. You just have to pair the TV with a separate audio system.
I couldn't get the HDMI Audio Return Channel feature to work with the Onkyo HT-S5300 HTIB. It could be due to the receiver and not the TV, though the TV manual says this feature only works with other Sharp Aquoslink equipment.

Very Happy
Amazing is the only word to describe this TV. The bezel is small and the stand is rock solid, it looks great even when off. When you turn it on your jaw drops at the bright, colorful, razor sharp picture. This TV has just about every feature you can imagine. How cool is it to effortlessly switch from TV to Netflix to stored files. I have not tried the 3D yet so hopefully that will not disappoint. Only a few minor issues keep this from being 5 stars.
Pros:
-Dual band wireless N
-2 USB data ports, this TV plays avi, mkv flawlewssly with a nice user interface. Great to have one large drive connected and still have a port to plug in my portable drive.
-You can turn off the 'TV ON' light in the front. May not seem like a big deal but with this off there are no lights or indicators to distract you.
-Nice Netflix UI, better than the xbox IMO
-Ridiculous number of connections, all my old (and new) stuff connects with no problem.
Cons:
-The remote is not the best, it works but sometimes you have to point it directly at the TV. Also it doesn't light up. I suppose there has to be some corners cut to get a 60" set at this low price.
-I could only get 1 bar on the wireless from my brand new Netgear Dual band router 25 ft away. I had set up a dedicated 5GHz network for this TV but I eventually decided to have the cable company come out and throw a drop in behind the TV. Maybe a 2.4GHz connection would work better.
-Netflix software is a little buggy. It kept locking up when using the wireless. Wired connection solved it for me. Sharp is working on it and has already issued 2 updates. Not a deal breaker but something to keep in mind.
-When viewing files on a USB drive you have to bring up an onscreen menu to stop, pause, etc. Not a big deal but the remote already has these buttons (which work for Netflix), why not use these?
Overall this is a great TV. With all these built in features it is not surprising that there are a few minor bugs to work out. Don't let those stop you from getting one of these great sets.

Great picture quality at a great price per inch.
I've had this unit a week now and I'm very impressed with it. The picture quality is amazing.
I use it with an Oppo 93 3D Bluray player going through an Onkyo 970. Everything is HDMI 1.4
compliant and it all works very nicely together. The Sharp sees the Onkyo, but not the Oppo
so far. Not really an issue. Likewise the limited web apps are not somethig that bother me.
3D playback was out of this world watching Avatar. I had seen 3D demos in stores and thought it was
a bit contrived and not really immersive. I'd see some cartoon character pop out of the screen, or a
big drop of water go by rafting the grand canyon.. but Avatar was full on, very real.. as far as it
is "real" of course.
Be prepared to mess about for a while dialing in the picture. Skin looked overly red out of the box.
I also had to tone down yellow and magenta setting and reduce color saturation a few clicks in order
to make things right (for me).
It's been pointed out to me from my review of a previous Samsung 3D TV that the yellow pixel is a gimmick, and yes, it is,
as the industry spec color to be divided into Red Green Blue..but I think Sharp actually did something clever. Since the number
of pixels is limited to 1920 by 1080, the bigger a screen gets the bigger the pixels, or the wider the gap between them.. so by
adding the 4th yellow pixel Sharp are filling the "holes" and adding resolution, as it were. It might boost total output too..
which is why I needed to dial it all down out of the box. Food for thought.
Pros: 60" 3D LCD for 2300$, wow! Great picture. Huge number of adjustments. Usable on board speakers for once.
Awesome 3D with Avatar. Slim , great for wall mount (when I get around to it) Nice "hidden" buttons on the bottom right allow use even when remote is lost. Power saving modes.
(slight) Cons: ugly base, remote is a bit direction sensitive, only a couple of apps (which I don't use)
huge number of adjustments :) There is a slight amount of light leak in the corners, but it's dark rather than bright and I notice it only on fully "on" shots, such as a white title page. I've seen much worse than this so it's a negligible con.
