With the introduction of the LC52LE700UN, Sharp combines its legendary AQUOS LCD panel technology with a newly developed, proprietary Full Array LED backlight system to create picture quality that is second to none. The LC52LE700UN illustrates Sharp’s LCD technology leadership while also demonstrating its LED engineering advantages. Sharp’s Ultra Brilliant LED system illuminates the TV to extremely high brightness and contrast levels and enables significant environmental benefits such as longer life expectancy, no heavy metals and lower power consumption. At the same time, the new XGen LCD Panel utilizes an ingeniously devised pixel design that permits more light to pass through even while minimizing light leakage, with the result being the deepest black levels that AQUOS has ever achieved. Overall, the LC52LE700UN shows that with Sharp, it’s not just LED… it’s AQUOS LED.

Brilliant picture for a great price,
I was a bit hesitant to buy this TV as I was waiting for a price drop on the Samsung LN52B750 52-Inch 1080p 240Hz LCD HDTV with Charcoal Grey Touch of Color for several days. Then, at Fry’s I saw Sharp’s new LC52LE700UN standing next to Samsung’s LN52B750 and they both looked quite similar, though Samsung’s screen was slightly brighter. The picture quality appeared to be the same. I grabbed the Sharp’s remote and changed the picture settings and I was able to increase the backlight up to match Samsung’s level while still maintaining amazing contrast ratio and black levels.
By the end of the day I decided to go for the Sharp TV, and I had it for almost a week now. The picture looks really great at any time of the day, when the room is dark or lit (we have a side window facing south). The TV’s sound is pretty good and clear, but I decided in advance that I’d like good external speakers to match this great TV.
The TV features also a VGA input (there’s also an S-Video input), which is handy for connecting a computer or laptop. I tried connecting my MacBook Pro yesterday and it was able to drive it at 1344×756 (16:9) and 1344×1008 (4:3), but I couldn’t get 1920×1080. The picture looks sharp, and it was good enough to watch Hulu on it.
If there’s one thing I don’t like about it, it’s the remote, which is not really stylish to say the least (Samsung’s glossy remote looks much better). That’s not a deal breaker, since most common function (Power, volume, input selection) can be done by almost any Blu-ray remote anyway (I have Samsung BD-P3600 blu-ray player remote, which looks great).
Overall, this is an excellent TV for the price and the picture quality is comparable to higher-end Samsung TVs which cost few hundred dollars more.

Sharp AQUOS LC52LE700UN 52″ LED HDTV,
I have had the TV for almost a month now and I am very pleased with my decision to purchase the Sharp. I did a lot of research, both on line and with actual “in store” comparisons at a nearby TV/Video store. The store had the Sharp LED, the Samsung LED and a Sony XBR, all in 46″, side-by-side with the Sharp in the middle. The Sony was eliminated immediately because it’s picture lacked the crispness and clarity that the LED televisions had. In three separate trips, I had almost 3 hours of watching the Sharp and Samsung televisions side-by-side. In viewing programing with darker backgrounds, I found no difference between the two. In programs with very bright backgrounds, I found the Sharp had an even brightness through the entire picture due to its full array LED and the Samsung was slightly brighter along the edge due to its edge lit LED that probably would not have been noticible if it were not sitting next to the Sharp. The decision was made during a Food Network show, and a red and white curtain in the background had a slight purplish tint on the Samsung, and was true red on the Sharp. If I was hanging the TV on the wall, the thinness of the Samsung would have been a consideration; however, the Sharp is not a thick television and would hang on the wall just fine. I also looked at several plazma TVs, but they put out an extreme amount of heat. I can hold me hand a few inches away from the screen of a LED and do not notice any temperature difference from the rest of the room, but you can really feel the heat from a plazma when standing 2 to 3 feet in front of it. The Sharp is considerably cheaper than the Samsung, and overall, Sharp has the better picture. The TV/Video store knocked $400 off of their advertised price; however, I was able to get another $400 off of that through Amazon.com. With shipping and no sales tax, I saved about $600 off my best local price and $1,000 off the local advertised price.

I recommend a Sharp LED,
I’m just a regular guy and maybe I’m easily satisfied but I think the Sharp 52″ LED is pretty darn good. I read all kinds of reviews and found that the Sharp had a picture that kept up with the best at a lower price. I’ve messed with the setting and I can’t get it any better than the auto setting. Black is black. Colors are bright and pictures are sharp. I’ve run the TV for several hours and you can barely feel any heat coming off the top. I’ve got a VCR hooked up and the picture is acceptable to watch. My DVD player picture comes in a heck of a lot better than on my old 27″. I am looking at getting a blu-ray player. The TV speakers are doing a good job for now. Will I get a surround sound system? Doubtful. Speaker bar may be. The room set up I have just doesn’t lend itself easily to speaker placement and keeping my wife happy. I was a little leery ordering a TV over the Internet but everything arrived just great and within a week. Would I recommend a Sharp LED? I would and have.
