Sharp unveils PN-655E 65-inch HD ready TV

Sharp is showing off a large TV – the 65-inch PN-655E with full HD. There’s just one drawback – it’s for commercial use only.

Sharp believes the large screen and full HD makes it an ideal solution for a variety of commercial applications – including digital signage and audio visual hire. It also has other noteable advantages, including a non-reflective coating on the screen for good visibility (even in strong light), reduced power consumption and a reduction in weight (compared to a traditional plasma).

Other features include a four-wave backlight system for improved colour depth and accuracy, a pixel response time of just 6 milliseconds and a distortion-free, 170 degree horizontal and vertical viewing angle. There’s also split screen functions, the option of a daisy-chain network and a wide range of connection options, including digital DVI-D (supporting 1080P signal), analogue PC RGB (up to 1920 x 1080) and component (YCrCb).

Available in the coming weeks, price to be confirmed.
