Five things you should know about SHARP AQOUS XU SERIES
- 8K resolution on a 4K ULTRA HD panel – Sharp AQUOS XU Series achieves 8K Resolution on a 4K Ultra HD panel* by combining Sharp’s proprietary Quattron Pro 4-Color Technology and its newest upscaling circuit, the X8-Master Engine Pro. The result: true-to-life detail, the most vivid color expression, and deepest contrast.
- More Colors, More Details – With its Rich Color Pro Technology, boosted by a new direct LED backlight system and Ultra Dynamic Range Pro, the XU Series expands its color range reproduction and provides the deepest contrasts in its blacks and whites. Rich Color Pro Technology enhances the power of 4-Color Technology with a new direct backlight that expands the color reproduction range by 40%, displaying a wider array of vivid and true-to-life colors. Ultra Dynamic Range Pro utilizes the new direct backlight with a control area dimming technology, which switches off the backlight in dark areas to achieve darkest blacks and brightens up light areas for the brightest whites, thereby producing great contrast.
- Premium External Features – The Sharp AQUOS XU Series features a sleek aluminum frame that highlights its posh and lightweight design, and an adjustable loop stand (for LC-80XU930X only) that can be adjusted up to 40cm on the inner portion. Its NBlack Anti-Glare Technology (for LC-80XU930X only) also enhances your viewing pleasure by reducing the reflection on the screen, while also contributing to clearer color reproduction.
- The best Remote Control I’ve seen – The XU Series also comes with a newly developed smart remote control equipped with a Sharp original touch pad and a slide bar, for easier external input switching and quicker access to features such as Google Voice Search™ and Netflix.
- An Ultimate couch potato Maker – A step above the usual smart TVs, this Android TV is an ideal couch-potato maker having a truly “entertainment tailored for you” feature allowing viewers to command the TV with the Smart Remote with Google Voice Search function – which recognises 61 languages* with a great degree of accuracy. You’ll never going to leave your seat when you turn on the TV for you can stream movies and TV shows, listen to music, play games exclusive to Android™ and enjoy instant access to Netflix, YouTube™, and more. The AQUOS XU Series lets you access over 600 Android apps and games on television from the Google Play™ Store. Google Cast™ is built-in, which allows you to cast your favorite entertainment and apps from your Google Cast-enabled apps right to your TV.
This would be such a great addition in living room but the price is something I cannot afford now, XU series are available in 70″ at around P350k and 80″ at around P500k. So what do you think? For consumers seeking smaller high-quality TVs, Sharp also has 4K Ultra-HD TVs powered by Android TV in 65-inch, 58-inch, and 50-inch. The Sharp AQUOS XU Series is now available in all leading appliance stores nationwide.
