Announced for the first time in New York City a few months ago, the japanese television manufacturer proudly showed off the new 90-inch AQUOS smart television. The 1080p Sharp LC-90LE745U in a FULL LED-backlit set with a 200Hz refresh rate helps avoid blurring images during fast-paced scenes in action movies or live sporting events. In addition, the television is ready for 3D playback and comes with two pairs of active-shutter glasses.
Using the built-in Wi-Fi, the Sharp SmartCentral user interface provides access to a standard range of applications including CinemaNow, Facebook, Hulu Plus, Netflix, Twitter, Vudu and YouTube. With an optional camera sold separately, users can utilize the Skype application to chat with friends and family members infront of the big screen.
Installing the television in the living room isn’t going to be easy though. Similar to the heavy weight of older tube televisions, the Sharp 90-inch AQUOS weighs 64 kg. Anyone thinking of mounting this behemoth on the wall should be extremely careful during installation. Nearly tripling the size of the viewing area compared to a 55-inch high definition television, the Sharp 90-inch television is surprisingly energy friendly. According to Sharp, the LED television consumes less power than two 75-watt light bulbs and the average owner should pay about 55 lv a year in electricity costs. However, the astonishing price over 20 000 lv tag isn’t designed to help save consumers any money. The 90-inch will be available at the first week of november in Bulgaria.
