"Sharp's latest 32-inch Aquous HDTV delivers some excellent features at an upper-midrange price point, including a 120Hz refresh rate, a fast 4ms response time, and four HDMI 1.3 inputs. But the most important feature by far is the television's full-array LED backlight. As such, we recommend it - however, after extensive testing, we did have a few reservations about the set worth noting as well."

With a display that can accept 1080p/24fps signals, this player's picture quality is truly top class. Detail is astonishing and colours are vivid and lifelike. SD DVDs don't fare so well compared to a dedicated DVD player with upscaling but they're still good. A bigger issue for multimedia junkies is the lack of media support - MP3, WMA, JPEG and DivX files are not compatible. The player also lacks resume (of a Blu-ray Disc), which is annoying if you have stop a movie unexpectedly or change a setting from the menu. If you are looking for a reasonably priced entry into the world of high-def movies, then you could do a lot worse than choose this one. At this price, it's a steal - especially for Sharp Aquos HDTV owners.

The 52XD1E is certainly a good TV, especially for the money, and will doubtless satisfy anyone who decides to buy one, at least while viewing HD sources. Yet we have to say that if it were our money, the extra picture quality and enhanced feature count of Samsung's 52M87BD would probably lean us in the Korean brand's direction instead.

As pretty much the instigator of this whole LCD TV phenomenon now sweeping the UK, Sharp has taken rather longer than expected to take its place at the full HD LCD table. But thankfully the brand has finally got its finger out and launched a whole range of full HD models, the XD1Es, ranging in size from 37in up to a whopping 52in.

D-Day is upon us, which means the broadcast transition is upon us. None of this should be news, because Benchmark Reviews gave you specific instructions on how-to surviving this digital revolution and buy your first HDTV. We hope you paid close attention. Now let's take a look at what could turn this transition into an event worthy of celebration. The Sharp AQUOS LC-52D62U sets a new standard for large-screen flat-panel LCD TVs. With Full HD Spec 1080p resolution, dramatically enhanced black level and an elegant new design, it produces a breathtaking picture quality that is second to none.

Yes, the LC-32G8E lacks the balls-out glamour of Sharp's upcoming new LCD stars, and no, its performance won't give the very best LCD TVs in town sleepless nights. Yet placed within the context of its hugely reasonable sub-£600 price point, it's a budget option that you'd be foolish to ignore.

Every TV brand currently cashing in on the LCD boom owes a big debt of thanks to Sharp. For it was Sharp which first put its money where its mouth was to produce the world's debut 30in LCD TV, finally proving once and for all that LCD really could work for the large-screen TV market as well as the PC monitor market. So as we set about testing Sharp's current 32in flagship model, the LC-32GD7E, we can't help but hope that it benefits from the brand's unparalleled LCD experience...

The Sharp M4000 WideNote is a worthy contender in the widescreen, lightweight notebook market, marred by the lack of an intended buyer. This Centrino-based notebook performs right up there with the best of them, and the screen is a pleasure to behold. The sleek, brushed aluminum exterior takes a page from the Apple Powerbook, but the faux chrome buttons come off as more tacky than classy. Overall, the M4000 WideNote should be a good example of how a company can take a highly standardized design and still make it stick out in a crowd, but the lack of customization and basic features sends this notebook to the bottom of the class...
