Sharp LC40E67UN 40" LCD HDTV 40-inch 60Hz 1080p LCD HD Television

i searched all other places for the best price amazon beat it by at least 150 to 200 dollars and sharp aqueos is one of the best pictures i could find i just don`t buy whaterver i do research first and this hi def i great

So far this TV is working out great. It is only a 60Hz display, but it still gives a great and really sharp image. I did not rate the sound since I have the whole thing connected to my surround system, and never use the sound on the TV. The TV display, and all the different modes, are very easy to setup.
The order went Amazon also went very easy. Around Seattle Amazon uses Pilot shipping, and they provided a great service. They were there when they were supposed to be, they came in and setup the TV to make sure everything was working. They even waited while I got the wall mount setup so we could actually mount the TV.
All in all a great experience.

SHARP PRODUCES ONE OF THE BEST IF NOT THE BEST HD FLAT SCREEN TV'S. GREAT PICTURE,GREAT FEATURES JUST A GREAT TV!

I bought this set at a big box store. It was set up with other TVs so you couldn't make a direct comparison with picture size or quality. The pictures they where showing had vary few faces that where on the screen for no more then 2 seconds and then flashed to wild life or racing land scape scenes. So it was vary difficult to tell how the sets skin tones looked. When I Got the 40" Sharp TV home, up and running all the skin tones looked pinkish (bright pink noeses, cheeks and chins). I tried various color setting including Advanced mode to cool this affect down and I could get rid of it for the most part but then people that were in outdoor lighting conditions started showing up green. After making several calls to Sharp we decided the TV was defective and that I should return it to the store. While I was at the store I looked specifically for this pinkish effect in the picture on the model I was returning and I noticed it had the same problem. I asked the salesman if he could adjust the pinkish look out but he found the same problems I did. When I looked at the other TV sets on display all but the Sony and the Samsung had color problems. The last set I had was a Samsung Plasma that I was assured would not have burn in problems, but it did. So I went back to Sony.

I've read a lot of reviews on this TV and other sharp TVs. The complaints I've read were the follwoing

- 60 Hz and not 120 Hz - you really can't see the difference, maybe if you play some games where things move fast, but for normal use, you won't notice a thing
- speakers are weak - yes, they could be better probably, but I think that the sound is just fine if you use your TV as a TV and not a boom box
- the remote control is weird and unintuitive and has small buttons etc - totally untrue, very intuitive, easy to use, normal buttons.

Some people simply, I think, like to complain and try to find the smallest details that they would like to improve. I am quite a picky guy and pay attention to detail and this TV is just great. I am very happy with it. Could it be somewhat better (sound), probably so, would I like to pay 1000 bucks more for it, NO. END OF STORY, simple choice. I read all the reviews before buying it and concluded that most of the people liked it and only a few had unreasonable expectations and I was right.

I am very happy with the 40" Aquos.

A great price, and when I compared the picture quality with the more expensive Sony, LG and Samsung alternatives, I could not tell the difference. I disagree with those who found issues with the picture and sound quality.

I also like the fact that it has so many connectivity options including old fashion Cable and antenna inputs which the aforementioned options cast aside.

I also saw negative comments about the time to power up. It is not instantaneous, about 10-15 seconds. But I've seen similar delays on other HDTV sets. I can live with it. What bothers me a bit is the delay in switching channels, a couple of seconds. This seems a bit slower than other HDTVs I've used.

One last thing. If you want to wall mount, be sure to find one that will accept 16"x16". The Cheetah APTMM2B worked fine for me, whereas the Sanus MT25 is far to small.

I just purchased this tv last week and although it wasn't 120HZ i just couldn't justify the extra couple hundred dollars just to get that one last feature.

Pretty easy to set up...well, my dad set it up LOL! We tinkered with the tint, contrast, brightness setting for about 5 minutes to get the look we wanted b/c those factory default settings are bunk. As soon as it was good to go we flipped to an HD channel and watched a football game with such mind blowing clarity I swear it was better than being at the game.

I love this tv, if I could I would marry it and have it's 19 inch portable babies. Ok, not really but you know what I'm saying. I just wish ALL my HD channels were 1080 b/c now that I have a great tv i can really tell the difference between 480, 720, and 1080.

The only downside is the picture quality is so good I don't like watching my old DVDs in 480 anymore and now I'm dying to buy a Blue-Ray so I can get the maximum impact of the sharpness and clarity.

I purchased this TV to replace a 42" LCD Philips TV that I have and really dislike. For one, I think Philips makes junk. The tv has horrible sound quality, the cabinet is unattractive, the HDMI engine sometimes is tempermental and needs to be unplugged to reset, and Philips customer service is among the worst. Needless to say, I was anxious to get rid of the Philips and go with the Sharp. Also, I wanted to upgrade from 720p and 1080i to a full 1080p.

Folks, this Sharp TV had HORRIBLE picture quality on the PS3 and XBOX. I tried numerous settings for the contrast, sharpness, brightness, et cetera. I experienced major eye strain attempting to play video games on the SHARP. As much as I hate the Philips, I'm going to have to continue to use it until I can find something I can afford to replace it. The Sharp TV is going to be returned.

This TV might be ok for television and movies, but I think you'll find it difficult to watch if you play video games much at all.

After my Olevia 42inch LCD blew up, I figured any new LCD would be a dramatic improvement over a tv i bought over 2 years ago. I thought I didnt really have to research a Sharp TV as I trusted their Company. It is adequate for its price. I paid $540 dollars not including tax. But I have several problems with it. First, the blur. As people mentioned on the other reviews, movement (not just fast moving of the actors or scene but any movement of the camera panning to different characters) gives off blur for a couple of seconds. It is amazing the human can pick it up but it is. It is quite frequent.

Second, the viewing angle. If not sitting directly in front of the tv, the colors and picture are very muted and washed out. The best description is the look of a bootleg copy of a movie filmed with video-camera in the theatres. It looks extremely white at times and is very distracting.

The HD seems fine when the picture is not moving while not spectacular. Standard Definition looks pretty bad. I doubt its defective. I just think it is low end. My understanding is it uses 60hz which is the cause of the blur. What I don't get is why my olevia didn't suffer from any of these problems.

Honestly, I would seriously think of returning it and maybe getting a smaller yet better tv but it seems like crapshoot when you buy these low to mid range tvs. Even the reviews cant truly be trusted as personal preference, annoyance factor, and other things make it very subjective. I know I am in the minority here regarding the quality of the tv but I have had 3 big screen tvs and have friends who have others, and these problems I list are real. Wish they werent but they are.
