Official Sharp AQUOS LC-80LE844U Owners thread - Page 13

Thanks, I wasn't really putting much thought into the idea of it being defective from the start and or self shipping damage. I'm glad you both gave me the info that they will cover it if it arrives damaged.

After watching the picture for awhile, I have 2 pea sized dimmer areas in the middle of the screen during white backgrounds. It's odd as they just appear to be not as bright as the rest of the screen. Almost look like a smudge on the screen but I don't see anything.

Not sure if it's a real defect or something else. I'm trying to find an adequate blu-ray scene to see if it's TV or content as I've only seen it so far with cable.

Any ideas?

Do any of the shippers use ShockWatch labels on their shipments?

I have the Chief PNR-2000 which is essentially the same as the PDR. It works great. It is extremely sturdy. The TV seems a lot less sturdy than the mount. Sharp should have had wider holes for mounting (like my prior Panasonic)

Anyone test out the integrated netflix client yet? Im curios if it supports dd 5.1?

Also, anyone do any gaming on their 844 yet? Im curious how the xbox 360 or ps3 performs on the 844?

Thanks!

Did this set happen to come with its own mounting screws ?

I think they show the depth of the M8 holes as (31/64) so the 12mm should work but I do like using the ones that come with the set if they are provided.

Don't forget if you don't need a tilt mount the sanus ll11 is the thinnest mount to get for.this tv. About 60 at amazon

I am told these are the best ones but not cheap. But I figure if I am going to watch 3D I might as well get the best experience.

I picked up one pair of the Sharp AN3DG20B and a pair of cheaper GBSG03-JP: iTrek.

I need to get about 6-8 pairs so it was worth it to check out a high and low end pair before spending a bunch if I don't need to.

I get my TV on Thursday afternoon so I'll let you know how the comparison goes.

i got the Sharp ones from Amazon for about $50. They work well. Dont know if there would be a difference if you got the True-Depth one, but you cant beat the price for the Sharp ones.

The mount comes with the screw (at least mine did). The bracket attached to the TV is made specifically for the TV you get. In addition, some TV's take a "Universal" bracket. I was told that the Universal one would work with the 80LE844, but I opted for the TV specific one.

Since these glasses work with all Sharp 3D sets, I take it that Sharp glasses are not blue tooth. Was Sharp not a player in the 2012 3D glasses standard?

They were not. 4 companies are: Panasonic, Samsung, Sony, Xpand

Thanks. Blue tooth is more reliable so I wonder why Sharp stayed away.

Why isn't the 80LE844U on the Sharp website?

And, the BBs that I've been to still don't have it on display.

No.. thank goodness...

That means the range of the glasses are much better. My experience with BT is not good.

BBs I've been to haven't even found it in their computer.

Try sharp.ca. It's on there.

I found a red pixel today. Almost in the middle. I didn't see it before on previous close up looks but now I do. I can't see it from where I sit.

At least red scenes won't be affected.

Does sharp have a dead pixel policy ?

Got my TV!!!!!! WOW I love this TV! The Picture looks great, and I don't even have it calibrated yet.

Box had very bad damage on the corner noted it on my shipment slip and took some pictures. The delivery guys said the damage was like that when they got it. They removed it from the box mounted the brackets and hung it on the wall for me. Then let me plug it in and test my PS3 on it before I signed. Everything looks perfect solid black screen has no off color pixels. Solid white screen looks uniform edge to center. I cant find anything wrong for now.

I am having trouble getting 3d on my PS3 to work properly. I cant find anything in the game options of Mortal Kombat or Pain to turn 3d on. The games are both listed with 3d support and Pain even shows 3d on the level select. I got my PS3 to recognize the 1080p 3d and ask me what size TV I had. The only 3d I have gotten to work is the 2d-3d image selection under the 3d button on the remote.

Heres a pic of my family and TV

Where did you buy your TV from? I can't believe the delivery guys actually mounted and hung the TV for you? I assume you gave them a tip but did you pay upfront (with the company) for extra service?

I purchased it through amazon. Fulfilled by Pauls TV. Free shipping. I was upgraded to white glove and got 4 sets of 3d glasses for $159 after complaining about a $210 price drop 3 days after my purchase. Even though TV shot up to $5700 later that same day.

I tipped them after. I think they were willing to help because of the amount of damage to the corner of the box.

Are you going from PS3 to TV or through a receiver/HDMI switch? Is the switch complaiant?

even my 2008 Mits DLP sees the 3D PS3 games

Jeez is that blond chick like 6 foot 8. She towers over the 80!!!

HDMI is going directly into port 1 on the TV.

Love those long legs.
