Sharp LC-70LE640U user reviews

Pros A large tv to fit a large room, it has a pretty good picture and does not dim the lights when you turn it on. The picture is so big you feel like you are handling the camera. Some of the controls are a bit confusing but setup took about 20 minutes.

Cons Still cannot program with my dvr, not sure of the difference with the le733 model series. Picture is good from the front but washed out from angles of about 50degrees to 0. Not bright as I would like it, with ps3 it is rather dark.

Summary Overall we got this for an oscar party and for the price $2500 at costco it is a really good deal for the size. The setup and cable layouts are pretty standard - no svideo but 4hdmi and 2 usb ports. We like it but it takes some getting used to. We have a very large room and sit about 15 to 20 feet away so it is not bad but if you are close you can see pixelation. It fit my old mounting bracket so had it on the wall and hooked up in 5 mintues - configuration took a bit and was pretty straightforward but some terms are confusing and are not described well. Picture is very dark with my ps3 with hdmi (was fine with old plasma) and I will look into it more. Sometimes dark areas are too dark but overall pretty good.
