Shopping for 60in TV and was pretty keen on the 4TC60AL1X.. but shop have no stock and proposed 4TC60CK1X as a new model. Searching in Google have limited info other than sharp just launched it 1-2 months back.


Sharp page comparison seems to have different spec and some compromised and better spec. Showroom test of both show PQ is very close...

Anyone have them?

Seem like no one have any idea of this..sighh.. im thinking of buying this too

i do not have al1x or ck1x but have the 2 before it - ue630x (5 years), ua6800x (2.5 years)

just looking at the specs for ck1x and al1x, main differences:

C has 3x2.0a hdmi; A has 2x2.0 + 2x2.0a (total 4).
C does not have audio elix prism enhancement like A, but both are capable of dolby digital only.
C can do HLG while A can do HDR10 only.
C has better bluetooth.
C is lighter than A
C does not have rs23s like A.
C is android9, A is android8.

both are smart, AndroidTV with google playstore, youtube 4k, browser, etc.
like ua6800x, C and A should have the unifitv app in playstore, works fine.

my exp with sharp TVs is good, no trouble so far.

but keep in mind after 5 years, there will be no more android updates.
i.e., best to buy a tv with newest android version.

My sharp 6800x kaput with horizontal lines across the screen in 2.8 yrs
But sharp gave me 2+3 yrs extended warranty so they will replace it with CK1X
How's ur experience with it so far?
Sharp lcd screen quality is bad

All replaced daily under warranty


Attached thumbnail(s)

4TC60CK1X - ‘Normal’ color, ‘normal’ brightness. Android
4TC60AL1X -wider’ color, higher brightness. Android

If you are getting a lower price and want to settle for lower spec, it is ok to go for CK1X

CK1X doesn't come with internal digital tv booster so u have to buy aftermarket
Picture quality same as 6800x
6800x came with user-friendly manual buttons at back panel whereas CK1X quite useless
Unsure abt CK1X lcd panel reliability whereas 6800x simply rubbish

Can watch YouTube in HDR10 or HLG ?
This is missleading in spec since 6800X.....

Only HDR with 3rd party apps
Very few youtube videos 4k so I just don't see the point

Have a thousands YouTube 4K HDR10 and HLG video's....

But for SHARP TV must install SmartTubeNext app to watch in HDR.
Netflix ok.....only HDR10.
I don't know about newer models.

Disagree
Mostly 1080p videos
U must be a gamer

OMG>>>>>> https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=4k+HDR

THOUSANDS........

Ok drama queen, thousands of rubbish 4k videos?

Mine ended up wif vertical lines after 2yrs..did you hv to pay a Topup to get this model?

Nope
Filed a report at Sharp & shop
2 wks later they sent me the closest replacement to 6800x

Thanks for the info... granted so much later . Completely forgotten about it. Using the CK1X now. All good.

still 2-3 more years for system upgrades, enjoy!

my 2 sharps are still good, working fine.

Actually what the issues without updates? Generally they are much usable still with youtube, netflix, and whatever the usual apps...

Or this more on folks running some more complicated setup with their android tv.

Having said the price of such tv size is affordable at less than 3k... if can last 5+ years ..... ok la

quite right - can pretty much keep going with little problem even with updates halted.

so far, there is only 1 thing i experienced with my 6 yr old - youtube update needs to be stopped, use older version.
