Sharp Aquos LC-70LE735U

There's a lot more to the Sharp AQUOS LC-70LE735U than its monstrous 70-inch screen. This 3D-ready LED backlit HDTV delivers deep, dark blacks, accurate colors, and intricate image detail without overtaxing your utility bill. Its $4,799.99 (list) price tag, however, is sure to put a big dent in your wallet. DesignWith its 70-inch screen (69.5-inch diagonal) the LC-70LE735U holds the distinction of being the largest LCD HDTV we've ever tested. The panel uses a full array of LEDs for backlighting, superior to edge-lit backlighting in terms of screen uniformity but requiring a slightly thicker cabinet.The set measures 1.75-inches thick around the top and sides and juts out to 3.5-inches at the bottom. It sports a glossy black bezel and an extended bottom bezel that contains a built-in 3D emitter, an Optical Picture Control (OPC) light sensor, and the remote sensor. There's no mistaking that this is a Sharp product; a Sharp logo can be found on the bottom bezel and an \"AQUOS Quattron 3D” label is splashed across the left side of the upper bezel. There's also an inverted V-shaped power indicator in the center of the sensor bar, a common design element for Sharp HDTVs.
