Sharp announced during the IFA Global Press Conference in Rome that its 8k television, the LV-70X500E, will be available for sale in Europe from the end of April at a price of EUR 11.199. That is one month later than the company had first planned. The TV is already for sale in Japan and China.
This is the Sharp LV-70X500E
Manufacturer Sharp announces that the LV70X500E, an 8k panel TV, will be available for sale in Europe before the end of the month. Television receives a price tag of 11,199 euros. The screen is 70-inch in size and features a resolution of 7,680 x 4,320 pixels, with high contrast. The maximum brightness is 1000 nits, there is support for high dynamic range (with HLG) and upscaling of content. At the moment there is very little 8k content (let alone 4k content), but so the high resolution can be used.
A 2.1 35 watt speaker system is also on board, as well as support for digital surround sound. There are four HDMI ports available. There are also USB ports, which allow you to view photos in 8k and videos in 4k. There are also various internet options available. However, the question for this type of product is always when you need such screens, not least because of the lack of good content. It is also often said that the difference between 4k and 8k is almost invisible to viewers.
