Picture
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When you look at the tv from the side it looks white and unclear till you get in front of it. I told them at the store they said adjust the contrast I did that still doesn't look clear. We thought it was looking better but at times it looks the same.

Not really a 4k
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this TV and found disappointing. Did not have great picture quality even on HD channels. Sound was very low overall. Suddenly turns into blue screen when getting into smart mode. Only option was to reboot from main power to get it back working.

broke down after 1 year and 5 monthd
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.not worth it. broke down in less than 2 years. I have a panasonic that is 7 years now and it is still working fine. This Sharp is now on sale for $369 but I am not going to risk again. This is not a good purchase, a waste of money.

Can't watch a hockey game, trails galore
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice advertising to sell this less than average picture HDTV, but watching a hockey game is hurtful to your eyes, players are blurry and have trails of their bodies when moving fast, very dissappointed!

Worthless tv
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy this TV it randomly turns itself off for no reason. You can not ad apps. It is the worst smart TV we have ever owned. Buy insignia they are much better.

You get what you pay for
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I somehow managed to get this TV for around $450 which is the cheapest I've seen a name brand 50-inch 4K TV by a mile. I upgraded from a 42-inch LCD and the difference was immediately noticeable. The colors, detail and the brightness immediately jumped off the screen. I've read lots of complaints about this the picture washing out if you're not sitting directly in front of the TV and I can say first hand that that was not the case for me. I moved all around the room, standing and sitting to look at it from every angle I possibly could and the picture did not stray. I did notice that when the screen is mostly black or another dark color, there are splotchy spots in the picture. This goes away when there is movement on the screen, but it is a little distracting during darker scenes. As far as the remote goes, it is really flimsy and cheap feeling but it gets the job done and despite other reviews, it's worked for me from all over the room. Audio was a big issue for me and I have a sound bar, subwoofer, and satellite speakers hooked up and I still can't get the sound I want. I just can't get that "big" sound that I was able to get through my other TV (An LG) despite tweaking all of the audio options. Set up was easy enough and I had no problem connecting to my wifi and jumping right into the Netflix 4K section. The demo videos they have on there look great but older movies like "Hitch" and "Jerry Maguire" aren't going to blow you away, but that's not really the TV's fault. There's not a whole lot of "smart" content either, so if you want lots of apps, I'd look elsewhere. I did play my PS4 for a few hours and I can tell you that you definitely see a small delay if you're not playing on the "Game" picture setting, but even then you can still get the picture to look really good even though the frame rate takes a hit. Bottom line, I think at the $450 I paid, it was a good deal and definitely an upgrade from my other tv. But if you have more money to play with I would definitely look elsewhere. I have a feeling that I'm going to be upgrading again sooner than I'd like to be.
