According to the manufacturer the major difference between the two is that the LC-LE835U series is 3D-compatible and works with active 3D glasses (not included). See our 3D TV FAQ for more. The 835 has a 240Hz refresh rate, while the 830 has a 120Hz refresh rate. We don't expect this difference to have a major impact on picture quality. Check out the article 240Hz: What you need to know for details.

According to the manufacturer the only differences between the two are that Best Buy's LC-60LE831U lacks Quad Pixel Plus and IP Control features, and that the dynamic contrast ratio specification on the 831U is 5,000,000:1, compared with the 830U's 6,000,000:1.
We don't expect the difference in contrast ratio specification to have a major impact on picture quality, but we can't say for sure since we haven't … Read more
According to the manufacturer, the only difference between the two is that the LC-60LE832U has a 240Hz refresh rate, while the LC-60LE830U has a 120Hz refresh rate. We don't expect this difference to have a major impact on picture quality. Check out the article 240Hz: What you need to know for details.
For more information, check out our full review of the Sharp Aquos Quattron LC-60LE830U.
Last year Sharp made a splash with ads featuring Star Trek's Mr. Sulu--George Takei--comically extolling the virtues of a technology called Quattron. With the memorable "Oh, myyy" tagline, the spots attempted to convince TV buyers that the technology, which adds a fourth yellow subpixel to the standard array of red, green, and blue, improved color fidelity. Despite covering the launch in-depth, we never reviewed one of those 2010 TVs, but after spending some time with the 2011 version, represented by the LC-LE830U series, we're a bit less impressed than Sulu was.
If you calibrate the LC-LE830U … Read more
Move over James Cameron. By the end of the month any Japanese teenager will be able to get their hands on the tools to create the next 3D blockbuster. Well, almost.
Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo has announced a smartphone, equipped with two cameras, that's capable of shooting high-def 3D video. The Aquos Phone SH-12C will be made by Sharp and reportedly has a bigger screen and faster processors than the two 3D HD smartphones already available in Japan from the company, which could shoot 3D stills, but not video.
The Aquos phone's specs will be able to compete with the much-anticipated LG Optimus 3D, which is expected this summer. It packs two 8-megapixel cameras on the back and can shoot 3D movies with a resolution of 720p (high definition); a 1.4GHz Qualcomm chip at the center of things will make the magic happen.
Preorders for the Aquos start May 14 in Japan and the phone hits May 20. No details on pricing just yet.
With an iPhone 5 announcement yet to be made and many analysts thinking we may not see the next-generation iPhone until this fall, some attention is being turned to the iPhone 6, as a Japanese newspaper is reporting that Apple has contracted Sharp to create screens for the sixth iPhone iteration.
Sharp is, according to an article (translated by Google Translate) in Nikkan, already preparing one of its LCD TV factories, Kameyama Plant No. 1, for the production of low-temperature, poly-silicon LCD screens for iPhones. This screen technology could also be used for future iterations of iPads and iPod Touches, … Read more
At CES, both Sharp and LG announced LCD TVs that hit the 70-inch milestone, and today Sharp has finalized pricing and availability on its beast. The former is $3,799 (list) and the latter is "now."
The 70-inch LC-70LE732U is being billed by Sharp as "the largest LCD television on the market," and until LG ships its 72-inch 72LZ9700, it is--at least as far as we and NPD know.
Your 3.8 grand will buy 2,088 square inches of screen, compared with a mere 1,801, 1,534, and 1,289 inches, respectively, for the … Read more
Beyond the widespread damage and loss of life, the earthquake and tsunamis that hit Japan today are having an effect on technology and electronics companies in the country.
Japan plays a central role in the high-tech and consumer electronics industries, home to heavyweights such as Sony, Toshiba, and Nintendo. Many U.S. and European tech companies also have significant offices and operations in Japan. Overall, Japanese factories produced $216 billion worth of electronics last year, according to market analysis firm IHS iSuppli. That includes 16.5 percent of worldwide consumer electronics factory revenue.
All those companies are still in the … Read more

Usually, 30-inch monitors are nothing to write home about. Sure, they're incredibly large and include a super-high 2560x1600 resolution, giving them copious amounts of screen real estate, but only a scant few include any calibration options beyond brightness. Also, most include only one or two different connection types.
The Dell UltraSharp U3011 is a different beast altogether.
The 30-inch Dell bucks the "high on performance, low on features" trend 30-inch monitors have reflected for years.
Not only does the Dell include more connection options than most other monitors, regardless of screen size, but it also allows for … Read more
