RM 5999.00 for the one without BD player + Sharp air purifier KC-930E worth about RM899.00. However not as slim as Samsung LED LCD TV. Apparently the backlit for Samsung is at the side, whereas Sharp is inside, hence thicker than Samsung. Higher contrast level.

I believe the lower end ones use white LED. Their flagship model supposedly uses RGB backligthing.

Same, the higher end ones will have local dimming. Also their local dimming algo is supposed to be pretty good.

Comfirmation from Sharp, it's white LED not RGB LED.

this one not like sammy edge lighting type right? I can't see how edge LED lighting can pull the light effectively to the centre of the LCD panel...
backlight should be kept at the back of the panel not at the edges..

The backlit is inside the back panel, not at the edge like Samsung. It produces higher contrast level than Sammy.

TV's imported in CBU form attract a higher duty rate but "assembled" in Malaysia, the savings can be quite substantial. Alas, those savings goes to enlarging their pockets instead of being fully passed on to the consumers doh.gif

Semi knock-down, very low tax.

Didn't exactly try out the TV fully yet, Just play a couple of movies, a big notice of deep black rendering definately better than other Sharp model. The black level is black unlike greyish metalic black. Sharp contrast and dynamic color. Almost 3D like and picture are popping out. Tested with Transformer, very sharp and concentrated color though some grainy parts that is not so grainy in other LCDs. Still some slight lagging during scene like helicopter hovering past at fast speed and capturing scene below ground.

Might have some problem with slightly glossy screen. While playing some movies can see some slight reflection. A big lowdown od the audio part. Increases the bass, and during high bass scenes, the speaker sounded like cheap minicompo. Breaking sound. So get prepares for some HTS to match with it.

Hasn't try Astro yet.

My 2 cents.

Not a major problem of the reflection. Try to position your LCD out of bright lights...Not as bad as Plasma glass panel.....

If you are playing DVD or Bluray..well no problem.

There are actually uniformity problems with the edge ligthing based LCDs. When the display becomes larger the centre of the display becomes difficult to illuminate thus making them non uniform in black levels.

Why dissapointment? Is the panel thickness so important to the people who come to ur shop? Whats another 2-3 inches if u r wall mounting? Anyway, I agree some people would favour style over substance, and a lot of people could not care less of image fidelity.

That what i am meaning to say. Being super slim is one of the selling points for me. As a user i would definately go for the better PQ and performance rather than style or design.

Heck, i am still using Panasonic 29" tv at home. Excellent PQ with Astro....
