Sharp 60UG30A TV evaluation challenges the ultimate quality of my home

I. Introduction

In August of this year, Sharp released its first 8K resolution LCD TV 80XU35A, which is a super-fine LCD TV product positioned on the top-level display platform. It still has a certain distance from the general consumer market, facing the mainstream 4K LCD nowadays. In the TV market, Sharp had a high-performance 80UD30A available in the first half of the year and gained a good reputation. Now another product with better performance and more accessible prices has arrived. This is the main character of the Sharp UG30A series 4K LCD TV today. .


In addition to the 8K TV 80XU35A, the UG30A was one of the new products in the next row of demonstration machines. Compared with UD30A series, UG30A pays more attention to the performance of color. Many netizens will be mentioned on weekdays. Among the 3S brands, the color of Sony TVs is very bright, and Samsung is even brighter, while Sharp represents the purest natural colors. This is what Sharp LCD TVs have been pursuing.


Second, the design is more beautiful

The TV model of this evaluation is 60UG30A. The reason why such a TV will be introduced is that, according to Sharp people, although Sharp has super flagships such as UD30A or even 8K resolution TV in the ultra high-end market, it still hopes to introduce more products in the high-end market to strengthen this market. The competitiveness.

Competitors regardless of Japan and South Korea or local companies have done adequate response in this regard, Sharp UG30A from the outset aimed at the high-end market, its pricing is more close to the people, but this does not mean that technology and quality will shrink, on the contrary UG30A The advent of the Sharp represents the beginning of Sharp's high-end TV Jedi fightback.


From the outside, the UG30A is completely different from the UD30A series, full of metallic appearance, ultra-narrow edge design and novel base design make it extremely high value.


Many LCD TV brands use inverted Y-type or various chicken feet this year, while the Sharp UG30A uses a circular base instead of the mainstream. Although it does not have a base rotation function, this design is similar to the base of some previous Japanese and Korean monitors. It is very similar, with the exception that the surface is extremely shiny and beautiful after plating.


The base of the UG30A emphasizes the floating effect. Compared with the ordinary stand, the TV screen is more like floating in the air from the front. The weight of the whole machine is completely backrested and supported by the stand. At the same time, the original SHARP LOGO LED lamp is replaced with a new blue indicator. Lights, projected directly from the lower part on the table, the effect is great.


The bottom left corner of the TV was printed with a Japanese original LCD panel, using original panels of good quality.


The border thickness of the UG30A is a narrower level.


The thickness of the fuselage panel is relatively thin compared with the iPhone6, less than 1 cm from the parameters.


The back of the fuselage is very simple and the metallic taste is very strong.


Side has a USB interface, 3 expansion cards such as HDMI and SD, can expand the body's storage space.


There are only a few RJ45 ports on the lower interface. USB3.0 and digital antenna and audio interface.


The UG30A on the remote control is basically the same as several Sharp products of the same type. The buttons are comfortable and have an empty mouse function, which is very comfortable in operation.

Third, the new ultra-wide color gamut

As a new model, the UG30A has improved its performance compared to its predecessor, and has also made new advances in technical specifications.


The 4K LCD panel has 4 times the pixels of Full HD (3,840X2160, about 8.29 million), so you don't need to worry about the rough picture quality caused by the large screen, allowing you to enjoy high-definition images. 4K super clear display effect reproduces the real telepresence, allowing you to enjoy high-definition lifestyle.


It is worth noting that this UG30A was found to be an RGB tri-color panel after actual observation, and its display accuracy is much stronger than that of LG's 4-color panel.


UG30A is equipped with Sharp's famous X-ray crystal panel and supports optical transmission technology. This is a precise control of the direction of deflection of liquid crystal molecules, effectively increasing the utilization of light and the opening rate of liquid crystal molecules, so that more light can pass through the LCD panel. , Has a higher peak brightness, so that white is more clear and bright. At the same time, the technology can accurately control the passage of light and effectively suppress the light leakage phenomenon of the backlight, making the black deeper and richer.

The UG30A is also equipped with a Sharp 4K-MEP professional image processing engine. It automatically analyzes received 2K signals (blue and terrestrial digital signals) and restores the details of the images appropriately, making it a suitable high-definition picture. Quality image. Even with FHD images, you can enjoy ultra-high definition images. Create more images that are full of texture, three-dimensional, and liveliness. In the previous UD30A review, the powerful rendering effect of the 4K-MEP image processing engine has been satisfactory.


In addition to the above technologies, the UG30A introduces a new wide color gamut technology to achieve a wider color gamut and a stronger image by using a wide color gamut optical film and a 4K-MEP professional image processing engine (color signal reduction processing technology). Color saturation. Enjoy more natural colors and stronger presence. In fact, it is reported that this new wide color gamut technology is actually a quantum dot technology, but the name of each is different. For example, local companies mostly claim quantum dots, and Sony Called Terricolor Charm, Sharp is simply more flat, a new wide color gamut represents the strongest color gamut enhancement technology.


In addition to this, the UG30A also incorporates a new Smart Contrast Enhancement function, which analyzes the brightness of each pixel unit and then re-distributes the brightness information of each pixel through software processing. White is more white, black is darker, and the contrast of the picture is enhanced. In the first time, the UG30A has adopted the ultra-thin glass light guide plate on the light guide plate. Compared with the traditional resin materials, the light guide plate of the glass has better light transmittance and can significantly improve the uniformity of the picture, and at the same time enhance the contrast with intelligent contrast enhancement. Together with the 4K-MEP professional image processing engine, the light is brighter and the darkness is deeper.

Four, 4K ultra clear pictures real shot

Image quality has always been a project pursued by Sharp. Let's take a look at the color expressiveness of this UG30A in 4K.


Museums and the night sky, the color performance is good, the sky color is very comfortable, there is no local over light phenomenon.

Close-up of cherry blossoms, blue sky and white petals in each other.

From these drawings, it is not difficult to find that Sharp UG30A's color performance is very alarming, basically completely surpassed the previous generation of UD30A TV, especially the performance of color gamut and color accuracy are quite good. In contrast, the color of LG's 4-color panel is barely enough to describe it.

V. Video decoding and playback

Terminator 5 4K trailer, H.265 encoding, but not a very standard encoding, UG30A can play normally. The decoding function of the UG30A TV is basically the same as that of the UD30A, and there is no obvious difference. The standard encoded 4K and H.265 videos can be decoded smoothly.

In addition to the impressive 4K decoding capability, the UG30A's 1080P upgrade to 4K is also very good.


Captain America 2 Winter Soldiers are Clear in Details


The sand on the edge of equipment tomorrow clearly shows that the face rails are also very clear


Raytheon 2 This machine can perform rich settings when playing video

This machine can perform quite a lot of settings during video playback, including pictures, audio and subtitles, 3D, etc. Among them, the 3D function supports multiple modes. If the remote itself is the left and right or the up and down modes, just select the corresponding mode here.


Titanic 3D can play correctly and its picture quality is quite good. Sharp's 4K-MEP professional image processing engine is quite effective.

Sixth, instrument panel performance test


Through professional equipment can understand, Sharp UG30A TV's color space performance is very alarming, sRGB and ARGB have reached 100% of the ultra-high standard, NTSC color gamut is a breakthrough of 100%. This coincides with the ultra-wide color gamut advocated by Sharp, and at the same time, it once again proves the high color gamut expressiveness brought by quantum dot technology.

The limit brightness in brightness is not very high, but the contrast of the panel is very outstanding, and the contrast ratio of 50% backlight/50% brightness is close to 1900. It can be seen that the function of the new light guide board is indispensable.


9 There are no obvious problems with regional uniformity. Light control in each region is relatively smooth, and there is basically no light leakage problem. The excellent uniformity brought by the glass light guide plate and the high quality of the panel itself are the main factors for its excellent performance.


The color accuracy has also reached the mainstream level, there is no project explosion table, the deviation of several major colors are at a low level.

Seven, professional test chart real shot


From the 4K tone map, it can be seen that the Sharp UG30A's dark detail and highlight level performance are very good, and the right side is also relatively smooth.


In addition to the yellow part of the color distribution chart in the lower left corner, the expression is more regular, and the color on the right side is very smooth.


In the 4K resolution test, the UG30A can easily distinguish the 25-character line, and the 4-color panel can only reach 16 or so.


Text test can easily read the first row of subtitles. It can be seen that the UG30A's RGB three-color panel has a very high degree of detail.

Eight, the new smart contrast enhancement effect comparison

Most televisions can adjust the contrast, because the black environment will appear gray when the contrast is low, and increasing the contrast can improve the problem.


In this original picture, the contrast of the picture is not enough, and the sky looks a little grey under the illumination of the light, and the lighting of the ground is not bright enough.


After improving the contrast of the picture, the sky becomes more profound, the road surface and building lights become more ambiguous, and the problem is accompanied by a large variation in the color of the picture. This is because the ordinary contrast is an integral adjustment, and the intelligent adjustment of the local and specific values ​​cannot be achieved. .

The new smart contrast enhancement is a great magic weapon for the UG30A. By analyzing the brightness of the pixels, the software processes the redistribution of individual pixel information, making the white even more white and black.


In this GIF chart, it can be seen that the attention-adjusted smart contrast enhances the lights on the building and the architectural and sky colors appear differently.

Nine, set the interface refreshing and simple

The external signal page has a preview function. After inserting the HDMI cable into the TV, the interface image information can be displayed.


It is worth mentioning that this machine also has a voice input function, for example, when the Shanghai weather is spoken, the weather forecast of the city is required and it has a voice reading.


In addition, the Shanghai silver search function of this machine is not limited to content search within the TV, but the entire Internet search, so the high recognition rate content is also very substantial, such as the remote control said: Shanghai to the plane's flight, there will be on the map The information in the smart TV is undoubtedly very useful.

XI. The pursuit of the ultimate picture quality

Compared to the intelligent or curved surface of television, Sharp's pursuit of picture quality is almost impossible for anyone in the industry. This is thanks to Sharp's world-class LCD panel, with its powerful 4K-MEP image processing engine and quantum dot technology. The color performance of the UG30A is unassailable, and the ultra-high color gamut is even more impressive.


At the same time, a new generation of intelligent contrast enhancement features significantly increase the color rendering of black and white, making black more black and white brighter, and the overall color of the picture is even better. On the system, the Sharp UG30A continues the mature Android system and continues to cooperate with Lenovo. Its system is easy to use and the interface is very friendly. The application is easy to obtain and the video resources are abundant enough to meet the needs of the household.


On the other hand, the exterior design of this machine is also more breakthrough than the UD30A and other large TVs. It is lighter and more beautiful and also highlights the relative cheap positioning of the UG30A. If the 80-inch UD30A is a breathtaking Powerful TV, the evaluation of this 60UG30A is an exquisite handicraft, of course, it must not forget that it has the top screen performance.
