 WOW May 14, 2010

I did a ton of research on all the reviews for this and other TV's, which focused on the expert sites like AVS Forum. After all the research, I was actually a little hesitant on this purchase with the 'Yellow' being possibly a little bit of a marketing gimmick. However the plunge was made and 'WOW' at times it feels like a 3D TV and my wife still is amazed and she doesn't get into technology. I would give this TV a Solid A+.

I waited, debated, compared, read reviews, etc, etc, before buying this TV. I set it up, plugged it in, and all I can say is that it is unbelievable. At first I just had standard def, and I thought that that was great. I just upgraded to DirectTV HD, and now the picture is so vivid, it feels as if the actors are right in the room. Actually for news and sitcoms, I prefer standard def. Sports and movies are just perfect - if anything is more realistic than this TV, I doubt if I would want it in my house. The comments made concerning the Film Mode are true - turn it off, it makes everything look like a soap opera. I haven't gotten into doing much adjustment yet, so I can't comment on that. I do wish I had gotten the 46" rather than the 52", even in a big room, everything is perfectly clear.
Gorgeous TV, just needs tweaking June 1, 2010

Just bought this TV about a week ago. Am still absolutely floored by the picture quality, clarity, and the crisp colors. As written in previous reviews, first thing that needs to be done is TURN THE FILM MODE OFF. First movie we watched was Avatar, and yes, even with Film Mode on, the movie looked jaw-droppingly good. But the longer you sat and watched, the more you realize that Film Mode gives it a "soap opera" look. That's the best I can describe it, you will have to see to understand. My eyes were becoming fatigued because everything was SO crisp and detailed, and so clean, it looked fake. Turning it off alleviated all the problems.
Even in "The Blind Side", I popped film mode back on and couldnt take it for a second. My guess is Film Mode is for upscaling Standard Def DVDs, for with BluRay it is just TOO much.
In terms of overall picture quality, as expected, right out of the box some additional tweaking had to be done. I have everything almost perfect, and again, I couldn't be happier. I did get a great deal on Geek Squad Calibration, and that will take place after 100 hrs get put on the TV. From everything I've heard, for a TV of this quality, professional calibration is worth every penney. Looking forward to it.

1. If you get this tv, do yourself a favor and turn off film mode. Somehow it removes all semblance of depth-of-field and makes everything look like it was shot on a soap-opera set.
2. There are setting to directly effect the color decoder, so image calibration should be easy. Unfortunately I think the yellow pixel makes the Avia color decoder patterns useless for this. Adjusting (the rgb) color levels to accurate made the picture laughable. Stick with just tint/saturation controls until someone figures out how to actually calibrate an rgb+y display.
Overall, a few tweaks made the PQ pretty good. The defaults don't seem to have any red or green push evident in the picture, even though the avia decoder patterns has them at > -25% off. I assume that's due to the yellow LCD pixel. The blacks on the picture are black, but there aren't any surprises here with LCD and shadow detail. You'll have to crank brightness up a bit to see any shadow detail, which will lighten up the blacks. Plasma is still king here.
LED-LCD is Great; Yellow pixel not so much August 28, 2010

This is a review of the Sharp Aquos model LC-52LE810UN 52-inch 1080p 120Hz LED Edge-lit LCD HDTV. As a step up from the other Aquos models, I judge the yellow pixels to be less effective. It was harder to calibrate the images, and the factory color settings seemed off somehow. The contrast is excellent at 4 or 5 million to 1 (hard to pin down which as descriptions vary).
In the general class of 1080p resolution TV's at 52-inch, the Aquos models have excellent form factor. Those LED Edge lights are exquisitely thin and light. The satisfaction from the form factor alone justifies getting an LED Edge-lit Aquos. Sharp has good resolution with its LCD technology, but then resolution is hard to stand out in this class.
Weight wise, this TV is less than 70 lbs making it easy to install. Getting a 52 inch TV was a decision made easier with its lack of bulk. Even for my tiny den.
I got the TV while it's on promotion (3 left in stock), which allowed me to buy a higher end Aquos at about the same price as the next step down (about $50 more). Now that I have it, I recommend people to get the next step down unless you find a deal that puts the two models on equal footing. Sharp has done well with its Aquos line of HDTV so much so that it's hard to justify getting top of the line, ironically.
