Does that means it's also updating the firmware?  Should update everytime there things to update?

yes.

i would.

better to update everytime an update is available.

when the updates stop, u know they see no need for new firmware support... or see the tv as "obsolete"!

In terms of upscalling is the 4k panel much better than this LC6090X?
On the smart TV function is any better than Samsung or lg webOS? Is the PQ as good as Sharp Kuro?
Edited :
Got no intention to get new TV but last week my 10 years ol 32 Toshiba lcd tv died and make me thinking to upgrade. Financially I'm ok Coz I'm only taking short term installment only. I'm not investing f sup expensive TV just nice t o compliment my br.mkv and 1080p content

You cannot compare upscaling capabilities of a HD tv against a 4K tv.
Kuro is from Pioneer not Sharp. And no, none of the TVs we are discussing are as good as the Kuros. Only Oleds are better than Kuros.

Samsung's Tizen & LG's Webos are the best at the moment. Android TV has good potential but will have to wait & see how it develops. But all of them have pros & cons. None are perfect.

Noted on the financial part. Try to keep the instalmen period short and don't stretch yourself too far.

  that's the perils of All TVs.

OOps.. sorry on the Kuro's .. 
might going to checkup the LC50UE630X and LC58UE630X

after 8 weeks using this sharp lc50ue630x uhd 4k tv, let me summarize my experience with it:

.. good video quality; 1080p, bdmv, bluray, 4k videos - excellent.
.. good upscaling for 720p, 1080i videos
.. vibrant colors.
.. the android within is good - capable of doing any 2/16gb lollipop 5.1 can do.
.. the android within can take a good no. of apps, performance is no lower than any android box.
.. works very well with netflix hd/uhd4k even on wifi.
.. works well with iflix (iflix is all sd but when upscaled, very acceptable).
.. hypptv 1080i channels like bbc earth, travel & living, natgeopeople come out sharp and bright.
.. usb playback can handle all common formats incl mkv, m2ts.
.. toslink digital output is dts/dd capable.
.. a surprisingly cool tv, does not even get warm.


not so good:

.. somehow, i find the dark scenes a little too dark, the bright scenes a bit too bright. don't know if this is a characteristic of all 4k tv's..?
.. all hmdi's video setting is restricted to a choice of std, movie, pc, dynamic or dynamic fixed. u can change the variables in each set but that will apply to all hdmi's. this is not as good as previous models where u can change the variables in each setting for every hdmi input and save as user1, user2, etc.
.. all inputs and outputs incl hdmi, usb, optical, lan are at the back of tv, not side - access difficult for wall mounted cases.
.. usb playback native player is not too user friendly, sensitive, cannot detect files often. but can be overcome for the most part by playing back with kodi instead of the native player.


overall, i am very happy with the tv.

ya, check them out. ue630x... 50, 58 or 65" are the same in terms of specs - they share the same manual.

below is my previous writeup, edited and reposted here:

It mean that u can install kodi on it?

yes, try it.

it is still possible an hdd cannot be read, i have one like that.

likely the formatting, sensitive usb drive.

but overall, can use.
i am now testing the tv kodi samba functions - see if it can stream wifi 4K material from my pc.

So my conclusion is ( i could be wrong) the tv should be able to read all HDD produced recently.  But i only tested with Kingston and WD, other brand might produce different result  haha

Hi guys,
been reading reviews/blogs to understand the 24fps judder issue.

Have it got anything to do with the refreshing rate of the TV. say 120hz (multiple of 24) will have no issue playing 24fps movies, but 60hz will have issue and will need the smoothing feature to smoothen it out? (am I just talking nonsense here? apologies if i just did)

http://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/movies/judder/24p

in this list of TVs reviewed by the website, it happens that those judder free tvs have 120hz refreshing rate.

sifus here been mentioning/recommending samsung tvs too but i thought those mostly have the judder issue?

need guidance from sifu sekalian.

thanks.

A revisit to Harvey Norman today looking at various full HD and 4k tvs make me realise once you get used to 4k you will find 1080p look like SD. Looking at 65" Sony W850 again suddenly make me realise how big the pixels are. Glad I got the 4k instead of 1080p TV.

One of the reasons why I'm giving the 4K industry a couple more years to gain traction before jumping in.. We'll see in, say 5 years...Tech can only get better..

But I think 4k tv not entirely float my boat. I went to Pavillon Harvey last Fri to catch a glimpse of 4k tv. I saw Samsung SUHD, but the demo vid showed the veges looked so greenish like florescent lit veges, and also the green apples. The red color is the worst, the parrot after enhancement just looked like florescent bird.

It is digital color I would say, very high contrast and bright, but very artificial and not natural. The only good demo is night sky and night scene with good contrast, or documentary type of videos like travelling and building sites, but for movies.

I stayed there for some time even to look at new 8k sharp tv, which was slightly better. I think the hardest part for super 4k is to get the human skin tone color right. I saw patches of skin tone here and there. I also felt long term viewing induce eye fatigue. This is just my opinion, I am minority I guess.
