This new flagship of the Sharp television range is enormous ... remember that the diagonal measurement isn't the only size increase, there's also increased area above and below, meaning that a 70" / 177cm television is over 60% larger than a 55" screen!
Not only that, but the picture quality is sharp and vivid thanks to 1080p Full HD resolution and Sharp's amazing 4 colour Quattron system.
And not to forget the quality of Japanese craftsmanship - it's easily visible in the screen's quality (and the 3 year warranty).
About Quattron
The newly developed 4-colour system and X-Gen panel are Sharp’s unique leading-edge technologies that dramatically improve colour expressiveness and picture quality to an unprecedented degree. The 4-colour system adds yellow reproduction to the conventional primary colours of red, green, and blue (RGB plus Y). This markedly enhanced yellow reproduction provides an unprecedented wide range in gradations to deliver colours just as they are in nature. Compared with the conventional 3 primary colour panel’s 6.2 million dots, more than 8 million dots of the 4-colour system deliver greater precision with unprecedented colour expression through the addition of yellow.
