NET+ Together with Philips and Loewe, Sharp has developed the so-called NET+ internet platform. You can see the DLNA interface in the picture above. Navigation is fast and east but loading time is too long. Sharp LE830 review I used Twonky to get a working DLNA connection and it ran pretty smoothly. DLNA DLNA is accessed through the source menu and Sharp supports streaming of music, pictures and a range of video codecs (see Sharp’s web site for the full list). Now you can press the pause button to pause live TV or you can press rewind to catch up if you were distracted in the middle of a show. The USB stick is easily installed on the back of the TV with one of the three USB inputs After formatting the USB stick (it will be formatted to work only with the TV – you cannot transfer anything to a PC) you are set ready. But unlike last year’s LE820 and LE925 models, LE830 needs an external USB stick. Sharp LE830 review Time Shift recording LE830 comes with Time Shift functionality which basically means that you can set live TV broadcasts on pause. I still feel that it lacks weight and quality but it is far more elegant that Sharp’s previous remote controls that were nothing short of hideous. FunctionalityThe remote control has not changed much and it is pretty much identical to last year’s version. All contrast measurements are based on the ANSI methodology. Sony PlayStation 3 is our Blu-Ray player. The software supports some of the traditional test patterns used to evaluate displays as well as some new and unique test patterns developed by the people here on FlatpanelsHD. Testing is also done with DVD, TV, Blu-Ray and Media center/PC. Testing is done with the DVE (digital video essentials) and Peter Finzel test DVD. Sharp LE830 review Test toolsOur TV signal is DVB-S (satellite) from Canal Digital and DVB-T (terrestrial). All other “important” inputs such as the TV signal plug, HDMI, USB and Ethernet are pointing to the side or down. Sharp LE830 review Only a few analog inputs such as s-video, component and scart are pointing out towards the wall. Sharp LE830 review The stand is made from metal with a plastic layer in top but it feels solid. Sharp has also chosen to ditch the glass front design from last year’s LE820 range, creating LE830 with a matte panel instead. Our first impressionsSharp LE830 is extremely slim and the bezel is thinner than ever. Subscribe to our Newsletter, RSS feed or twitter to receive notice when new reviews are online. But how good is LE830? Is it a real alternative to Samsung’s D8000 LED model? And has Sharp improved 3D picture quality compared to last year’s LE925 TV? FlatpanelsHD will find out in this Sharp LE830 review. LE835 is the same TV with added 3D functionality in the US. US readers notice: LE830 comes without 3D in the US. LE830 also comes with Internet functionality plus 3D (called LE835 in the US) and will be available up to 70 inches later this year. Last year’s LE820 model performed well but we hope to see further improvements in the new LE830 range that now comes with a matte panel instead of the glass front. Sharp LE830 / LE835 reviewSharp has released the LE830 / LE835 range of Edge LED based TVs as a successor to last year’s LE820 range that was the first to incorporate Sharp’s new Quattron panel technology.
