Sharp LC46LE700E Review

Due to heavy competition from Samsung and Sony, Sharp has reconfigured its marketing strategy to focus its efforts in East Asia. Since 2006, performance of Sharp LCDs catered towards the Western market has been above-average at best. The ASV technology has also remained largely unchanged for past three years.

Recently, Sharp opened a new factory in Sakai, Japan with its new partner Sony. Sharp’s latest 10th Generation LCD technology seems highly promising and should be on par with the current VA technologies in terms of raw performance. However, going by our test impressions of the LC46LE700E, it would seem that Sharp hasn’t altered its business model. Hopefully one day we will see the Asian equivalents in Western shelves.

Note: The specific model we reviewed was the Sharp LC46LE700E, which may be sold as LC46LE700 or LC-46LE700E by high-street stores like John Lewis, Comet and Currys, or online retailers such as Amazon or Dixons. While we did not test the 40-inch Sharp LC40LE700E, there is no reason to believe that there will be any drastic difference in picture performance (both do not feature localised LED dimming).

Design

Sharp has chosen to stick with a piano black design, and a signature blue gradient which vaguely covers the bottom frame (accompanied by an illuminated new brilliant LED logo directly beneath the sliver Sharp brand). Overall, I am quite pleased with the new design.

Sharp LC46LE700E

Build quality appears to be acceptable, but the process of installing the stand could be better (in terms of stability and ease).

For those who are green-minded, I am happy to inform that all Sharp LE700 HDTV series feature a hard power-switch located near the rear-left of the chassis, which allows complete shutdown of the panel during prolonged absences.

Connections

The Sharp LC46LE700E features the usual array of connections in keeping with today’s standards.

On-Screen Display (OSD)

Unlike its competitors, Sharp decided to remain with its existing GUI (Graphical User Interface) design. The simple yet elegant horizontal-navigation system is highly effective and simple to use. They have also improved responsiveness and added greyscale and colour management system (CMS) to the mix.

However, the Sharp LC46LE700E LED-based LCD TV does not feature independent image configuration, so it’s not possible to configure the inputs individually as they are unified.

Infrared Remote Control

The supplied remote hasn’t changed either, which is good news for those who prefer it.

Calibration

Greyscale and Gamma accuracy are vital for obtaining accurate representation of a given image. Therefore, the display must be calibrated to a set of standards used by the industry. In the case of HDTVs, the industry standard for colour is Rec. 709.

Greyscale calibration ensures all greys between black and white are free from colour dominance, which is achieved by assigning the RGB values to 6500K (CCT) colour temperature. Unfortunately, it’s not possible for a display to yield 100% accuracy. So the goal is to keep errors within acceptable levels.

Greyscale

Note: The results below were obtained by placing our light measuring device at the centre of the screen. It is done to ensure error values are kept to a safe minimum.

With the help of well-implemented white balance controls, I was able to obtain excellent results within minutes, which was a real treat considering that the whole process can be quite time-consuming.

Colour

The Colour Management System (CMS) however requires a major overhaul. Adjusting the hue and saturation has a direct affect on the luminance, and vice versa. Therefore, we decided to focus mainly on the luminance value as its effects are more easily detected by the human eye.

Benchmark Test Results

Benchmark results

Power Consumption

Default (maximum backlight) ~115 watts
Calibrated [Movie] mode ~60 watts
Standby ~0.1 watt

Uniformity

The Sharp LC46LE700E produced acceptable black and above average white uniformity. During the pure white test (100IRE), I was able to detect the classic red and green tinting. Backlight bleeding was present (but limited) and the panel uniformity was typical for a consumer grade display.

Unlike the previous ASV panels, the new 10th generation is free from physical banding. However, there were a few visible defects and imperfections across the panel, which does slightly hinder the calibration accuracy.

In truth, Sharp’s implementation of static LED offers no improvement in regards to uniformity when compared to standard CCFL technology.

Screen Uniformity

Contrast Ratio

I am pleased to confirm that Sharp has caught up with Samsung and AUO in terms of black level. The X-Gen panel embedded within LC46LE700E in [Movie] mode with white level (contrast) set to -10 (139 cd/m2) yielded excellent dynamic range and ANSI of ~2000:1, which is typical for a VA-based panel. Enabling [Active Contrast] can further improve black levels, but at the cost of stable APL (Average Picture Level) and black level retention, and therefore is not advised.

Motion Performance

  • Pixel Response: With my usual tests based on PixPerAn, I was able to detect the usual overdrive errors present in VA-based panels. However, the level of ‘smearing’ is well within acceptable limits and it’s an improvement compared to the previous ASV generation.
  • MCFI (100Hz): The quality of Sharp’s MCFI has always been rather poor in comparison to other manufacturers, and continues to remain true on the LC46LE700E. In truth, there was virtually no notable improvement with 100Hz enabled, except for a reduction in perceivable trailing caused by backlight flicker.

Audio Performance

The audio performance on the Sharp LC46LE700E LED-backlit LCD television was just about acceptable for everyday viewing. Overall sound was rather closed and diminutive, and can be compared to the previous Sharp models and cheap portable radios.

In my opinion, Sharp could have taken advantage of the additional chassis depth, and implemented a set of high-fidelity front-firing speakers (including a miniature sub-woofer), or deployed the same system found in the Japanese version (LC-46LX1).

Picture Performance

For evaluating real-world image quality of the Sharp LC46LE700E, we used a series of images known to expose even the most hidden artefact and errors.

Note: The following three tests were conducted under [Movie] mode.

Aeon

The Sharp LC46LE700E HDTV yielded below-average results out of the box when set to its default [Movie Mode]. Skin tones were somewhat pale and restricted. The variant shades of warm colours that enveloped Charlize Theron’s face, neck and chest were noticeably inaccurate (tinted towards magenta).

The tint and greyscale controls allowed us to rectify the errors with a fairly high degree of precision. We immediately noticed an overall improvement in colour accuracy, which also increased the level of perceivable depth. However, due to the poor implementation of CMS, we were unable to maximise the image accuracy. Having stated that, the final picture portrayed by the Sharp LC46LE700E is more than acceptable.

Acela Express

We used the image above to detect visual inaccuracies in greyscale, gamma and black crush; and the performance of the Sharp LC46LE700E was above average with [Colour Temperature] set to “Low” in [Movie Mode]. There was no visible evidence of serious black crush and gamma errors. However, there were minor signs of colour dominance (notably red and blue). Having stated that, the majority of viewers will not be able to spot the errors without a reference display.

After greyscale calibration, the rendered image was on par with one of our reference model (the Dell 2209WA).

American Beauty

The sample above highlighted the biggest discrepancy between pre-calibration and post-calibration. Prior to calibration, the image appeared to have a rather off-shade of red which was closer to magenta. In truth, one did not need a reference display to notice the obvious error.

After configuring the television’s CMS, greyscale and tint, we noticed an immediate improvement: the calibrated image radiated a sense of depth and improved contrast.

Overscanning: Overscan can be configured via the aspect ratio button found on the remote. However, due to the delta pixel addressing (as opposed to strip), fine details appeared rough and undefined at close range. Having said that, the effect is less noticeable compared to the previous generation. This is due to the new sub-pixel architecture found in the new ASV panel. It’s also worth noting that each sub-pixel has four luminance points and arranged negatively (BGR as opposed to RGB).

ASV subpixel architecture

Blacker than Black (HDMI): Unfortunately, the Sharp LC46LE700E does not support blacker than black during the use of video resolutions.

Backlight Flicker and Trailing: The Sharp LC46LE700E LED-backlit LCD television suffers from the common backlight flicker and flicker induced trailing, but thankfully only trailing is perceivable.

Viewing Angle: The 10th Generation Axially Symmetric Vertical-alignment (ASV) panel embedded within the Sharp LC46LE700E yielded satisfactory viewing angles, but due to its VA mode, colour, gamma and contrast shifts are unavoidable.

High Definition

Hi-def materials on the Sharp LC46LE700E were good but not exceptional (which is understandable). After all, the Sharp LC46LE700E is by no means a performance model or advertised as such; and the primary purpose of the LED is to reduce power consumption rather than to improve the blacks or colour accuracy. It’s a pity that the implementation of CMS turned out to be flawed, otherwise we would have been able to obtain more accurate colours.

Putting its faults aside, Sharp has improved their new range in number of areas, not least its 1080p/24 handling. Out of all the HDTVs I have tested thus far, the Sharp LC46LE700E clearly has the edge in 24p processing: the motion was stupendously fluid and on par with analogue-film-based projectors. 100Hz MCFI was disabled throughout the testing process so that wasn’t the explanation, but if I had to guess, I would say some sort of video-smoothing technology was deployed to induce the appearance of free-flowing motion without destroying the “film look”. I for one would love to see such processing adopted by other manufacturers.

Black level and colour fidelity have also improved considerably. There was no perceivable banding or posterization thanks to true 10-bit processing. Greyscale banding was also absent.

Providing the colours can be accurately calibrated, the Sharp LC46LE700E will be an excellent candidate for watching HD movies.

Standard Definition

The Sharp LC46LE700E LED-based LCD TV produced satisfactory results with negligible noise via RGB SCART. The common bleeding of colours and visual artefacts were present but controlled. However, the image did appear to lack colour and contrast in dark scenes, but thankfully, most of the SD processing can be outsourced to external devices.

Scaling: The scaling algorithm embedded within Sharp LC46LE700E is rather average. Scaling 480p to 1080p resulted in ringing and diminished definition. Thankfully, scaling 576i via SCART produced slightly better results, but inferior compared to other brands.

Film and Video Mode De-Interlacing: The Sharp LC46LE700E performed well in minimising aliasing during de-interlacing of high-motion contents, but it failed to process 2:2 pulldown correctly.

Digital Noise Reduction: Surprisingly, enabling noise reduction did not cause any adverse motion-related artefacts (e.g. smearing). The quality of motion, saturation and definition remained true to the content.

Console Gaming

The Sharp LC46LE700E HDTV definitely offers an edge in gaming over its competitors. It has the ability to switch between 8-bit and 10-bit processing at the press of a button, which resulted in significant speed-up in processing. However, as a result, image quality did deteriorate but not to the extent I was expecting. In truth, the level of perceivable posterization and banding were negligible at best. However, due to the delta pixel addressing, it somewhat amplified the level of perceivable aliasing. So it’s best to adopt a slightly farther viewing distance.

Also, due to the low buffer-rate, enabling 100/120Hz did not result in noticeable lag. It also aids in smoother frame transition of 60p games such as the Call of Duty series.

  1. Been looking at sharp since this new model came out in stores.
    But due to the past models with “banding” etc i waited for some good tests just like yours.

    The funny thing here in Sweden, is that sharp like this one is often sold in small stores that price them like highend LCD, even telling customers it beats all the major brand like samsung/sony etc.
    When i went to the store they even told me its was way better then the Samsung B7070 , it was that good.
    Well thx again for other excellent review, it sure saved me from spending alot on a LCD that is hyped and priced as premium in some stores.

  2. It’s very difficult to compare input lag of different models if you give Total (absolute??) values in some cases and relative to ‘Samsung F96’ (really useless measure for most of us) in others.

    Please try to be a bit more consistent. It’s among the most important factors if you like games and it does make a huge difference in quick 60 frames per second titles like Call of Duty, God of War and most fighting games..

  3. @Håkan Sigemo

    The 46LE700 is quite average when compared to competing models. It’s actually below average if you factor in pre-calibration performance.

    If you’re keen on LED, you may want to wait until CES 2010.

    @lucas

    I do see your point, but what you ask is not possible. Vincent compares the test models to his F96 where I compare them to my Dell 2209WA.

    I’ve recently managed to obtain the true latency value of my Dell (17ms), which means I am now able to provide the total value so you won’t have to guess.

    From now on, there will be two set of measurements stated on the review:

    1. Comparison to the Samsung F96 (Vincent).
    2. The total value (mine).

    Be sure to read lag section carefully as they may change in the future.

  4. As always, an exellent review, I’d expect a full led screen to have the ‘edge’ over an edge lit led such as the recent samsungs?.
    I do follow all reviews with interest (learning as i go), But as Pioneer are now partners with Sharp, as with the new Pioneer Krl-37v lcd, which is banded as a lcd Kuro, I would expect the sharp to ”do better”, I hope a pioneer Krl-37v lcd review is in the pipeline to compare the two.
    Thanks, Steve.

  5. Hi Nielo TM,

    Thanks for the reviewI was wonderng if you could inform me the calibration settings.

    I have bought the 40″ model, and must say I am quite happy with the panel, although some calibration will probably improve the panels output.

    Also I was hoping on a more then average result from your test. Since the new backlit sharp panel was indeed sold as the best of the latest new technologies and that for a reasonable price. Maybe the samsung was the better one to buy??

    Thing is that when you are in a shop its not always clear which panel produces the best image. Next to that, the output sd from all channels is different and same goes for HD and Blue ray, which makes picking the right panel even more difficult. Looking at your results after calibrating i think the sharp is a panel which can give you a lot of viewing pleasure.
    Thanks!

  6. I have bought the 46? model, and must say I am quite happy with it, although some calibration will probably improve the panels output.

    Thanks for the review I ‘m asking you to send me the calibration settings.

    Also I was hoping on a more then average result from your test. Since the new backlit sharp panel was indeed sold as the best of the latest new technologies and that for a reasonable price. Maybe the samsung was the better one to buy??

  7. please save me, can you send me the calibration settings for the 40″ model please?

    please?

    thanx a lot

  8. Hi,

    Thanks for the review!! Could you please also send the calibration settings?
    I appreciate your help..

  9. i just bought this led tv. can you please share the callibration settings, I am waiting for that.

    many thanks.

  10. I’ll see if Vincent can add it to the review, but every setup is different and it may not provide the results you’re after.

  11. Excellent review Nielo and I also prefer how you have done the gaming input lag here.

    Although, I would not really consider this TV because I want good scaling, Independent Input settings, good quality built in speakers and a nicer remote.

  12. Thanks for the review!! I have the 40″ model

    Can you send me calibration settings?

    Thank you

  13. Hi,

    Is it possible to receive calibration settings for 32″ model?

    Thank you

  14. Could you please send me the calibration settings as i’ve just bought the 40 inch model.

    thanks

  15. Great review. I bought the 40″ – please can you send me the calibration settings

    Much appreciated

  16. Great review!

    Any chance of sending me the 40″ calibration settings as I just bought one and am struggling to get it perfect….

    Cheers!

  17. I just bought the 40″ as well and the calibration settings would be most appreciated!

    Thanks!

  18. We have just bought the 40″ too and would also luv the calibration settings.

    Thank you.x

  19. As a few people have already posted above, Is there any chance of e-mailing the calibration settings for the 40″ model. I appreciate the settings might not be perfect for my actual tv, but they would give a very good bench mark for me to “tweek”

    Thanks in advance

  20. It should be up very shortly.

  21. Very interesting and helpful.

    Can you send me the calibration settings for the 52″ model.

    Thanks

  22. Thanks for the settings – I tried calibrating with Spyder II and HCFR but for some reason my results were visually unacceptable yet the colorimeter was saying something else. I had to lower blue settings to -25 ! Also the value of green in CMS (again according to Spyder II) had to be significantly tweaked. The calibration resulted in similar changes as what you posted but for some reason of a larger magnitude – probably Spyder II is not too precise. Thanks again !

  23. Hi,

    Great review. I have recently purchased the LC40LE700E and must admit that I am well impressed by the picture so far with a few tweeks. However, could you please send me the calibration settings so that I can get the best out of my tv for movies and sport.

    Can you please send me your best calibration settings for my Sharp Aquos 52inch Led?
    thank you in advance

  33. Hi

    I’m looking to buy 40″ of this model but i just do not know how it is gonna affect my gaming performance. i’m not a hardcore gamer but still i do enjoy single and online gaming and i’m mostly buying led tv for ps3 and full hd films/tv shows( planing to use media player such as icybox or qnap). I do not care SD or any other source for my TV.

    I’m basically searching every rock on internet for input lag but all i am getting more and more technical terms which i do not understand. As i said i just wonder how it is gonna affect me ? even without game mode 80ms input lag looks like nothing to me. since its only 0.080 second right ?

    Whoever said “ignorance is bliss” he/she is absolutely right.

    If any of you experienced this model and happy with performance for ps3 and blu-ray, full hd films i’m going to buy sharp first thing in the morning.

    p.s. sorry for my english btw.

  34. Hi Mete

    -If you wonder such as Gaming perf. so just go for “TN” panels as well!!!
    -But 7xx serie acceptable gaming perf.too(about 30ms is OK for this
    type panel&processor)
    -Therefore prefere 46″ instead 40″!!! well itsn’t worth to buy a FULLHD panel
    with size 40″!!!(or buy a CCFL panel such as Sony W5x serie)
    46″/55″ Baclit-LED OK and do not think about less sizes as well!
    -And keep in mind just check it out Tosh SV6x serie 46″ which is more
    effective even better gaming perf.

    Well I do not prefere to buy 7xx(at overal points)

    Meanwhile if you have a member of DH;pls proceed the relative Sharp thread+

  36. Stay away from Sharp TV’s. Google sharp problems or sharp lcd will not turn on and you will see that you are paying for their research and development. I bought a 42 Sharp aquos two years ago and now will not turn on. $425.00 to fix it and I am told that the average life span is 2-4 years. Since I paid 2,000 for it, I would have been better off renting. Save yourself money. I should have bought a samsung.

  37. I bought this model a week ago having seen it outperform the more expensive Samsungs in store. There’s no doubt the Samsungs have the design edge but value for money this was my slightly gambling, against the flow choice. Got it home and on terrestrial digital tv I was utterly disappointed at the lack of pixel definition. When HD was played I was gobsmacked – superb, though still not as good as the shop. I haven’t a clue about all the various advanced settings, but taking your settings (thank you v.much for posting them) I notice an immediate massive improvement. Wow, what a difference settings can make. I thoroughly recommend it (sound quality aside, tho fine if not good for day to day, but put thru my Harmon Kardon 5.1, movies are phenomenal). Value for money it beats the Samsungs (forget Sony’s) but boy it needs some tweaking.

  38. HI I have the sharp 40LE700…
    do you have the calibration setting for this ?
    appreciate if you can send me one

  42. Graham McSweeney

    Great review thanks, I purchased the LC46LE700e last week & i was very impressed with the picture especially in HD, but the sound qaulity is quite poor to be honest, but anyway I bought it so I could link it up with my HI-FI system, so I keep the sound turned off! I like the black finish at the front which is most important as you view the screen all the time, but the rear of the set I thought looked a bit cheap & plasticky! Tunning in all the channels was very easy, & there is quite a lot of other good features to play around with, & parental control etc. Overall though for the price this is a good tv to buy especially if you want that big picture & real home cinema effect.
    Thanks & Kind Regards
    Graham

  43. i bought one of these (40 inch) on sale at myer last week (got a very nice price from them of 1016 Australian dollars if anyone in aus is looking for a decent price)

    since getting it home i have found all the usual things. looks terrible before calibration 100Hz is in the menu but does pretty much nothing. dynamic mode is good if you want your retinas to be burnt to a crisp. sound quality is only just acceptable ECT.

    but one thing i did find was that it tends to smear the image alot more than it has (in my mind) the right to. i mainly play games on my TV so its rather obvious and disappointing. i did a fair bit of research before i bought the TV, so im aware that it is not a brilliant performer in this area. but i upgraded from a 32inch LG which is now 5 years old that appears to handle motion better. i would have thought that in 5 years the smearing problem of LCD would have been reduced at least some what.

    does anyone have any tips on ways to reduce this smearing at all? it does not hafto be much to make it acceptable, but i do wish that it would outperform my old TV.

    (note, other than my motion problems i am very impressed with this TV and would recommend it highly. for what it is, it is a very nice piece of kit

  44. id like to say how disappointed i am with the sharp led TV i was using a 50″ panasonic 1080p that i have Had for 18 months i fort it was time to upgrade to the new tec so i sold my panasonic and ordered the 52″ sharp 700 led TV i have Had it just over a week and its driving me made pitcher quality is poor wen its on sky hd I’m getting a lot of ghosting and the pitcher looks blared in fast scenes wen watching films i wish id up graded to the G20 600hz panasonic if i cant get the pitcher to look better its going on ebay the only good point is blu ray films look good wen running through the ps3

  51. I found that the sharp hd tv was pixely when playing some x box 360 games that I would rather go back to playing old tv. I thought hd was supposed to enhance the graphics and make it so much better but I gues not.

    First of all: great review!

    About the input lag. Is this the same for the 32inch version? And, how much input lag is there? 20-30ms? or more?

    Thanks!

  55. Hi

    As many have already stated, could I get an email with the calibration settings for the 40? model.

    I do realize setting may differ depending on what you use it for, but I am curious to see the type of settings you use and also it would give a very good benchmark. I hate the factory settings. Thanks in advance.

    As many have already stated, could I get an email with the calibration settings for the LC40LE705E model.
