The new 70in model offers similar specifications to the entries in the flagship EQ series but won’t offer quite the same level of picture quality as the panel is only 10-bit and doesn’t use Quantum Dot technology. The Sharp DN series launched earlier this year in 50in and 65in screen sizes but a 70in variant is set to be released before the end of 2021.

The Android 11 smart platform comes with several streaming services pre-installed, including Netflix, YouTube and Amazon Prime Video, while the Google Play Store provides access to countless more apps. Dolby Atmos and DTS:X are both supported meaning you’re covered when it comes to object-based surround sound formats. Built into the TVs are front- and down-firing speakers, which the company says are around three times larger than most TV audio solutions. Sharp has partnered with Harman Kardon to produce a 24W two-way speaker system for the EQ range. However, the panels only have a refresh rate of 60Hz so those after 4K at 120Hz will need to look elsewhere. All four of the EQ series’ HDMI ports are of the 2.1 specification and support gaming features such as Variable Refresh Rate and Auto Low -Latency Mode. In terms of connectivity, the EQ series comes with four HDMI ports (including one eARC connection), two USB-A ports and a micro-SD reader.


There’s support for HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision, along with Sharp’s AQUOS Motion smoothing technology and an Ambient Light Sensor to adjust brightness to best suit the lighting conditions the TV is in.

The range of Android-powered sets all sport UHD 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160), 12-bit colour depth and brightness of up to 400 nits. The cheapest model will cost £650 with prices rising to £700, £950 and £1,300 for the larger variants. The EQ series, which is made up of the EQ3 (black) and EQ4 (silver) models, will be available in Q1 2022 in four sizes: 50in, 55in, 65in and 75in. Sharp EQ series: Frameless, Quantum Dot 4K Android TVs Both LG and Samsung use Quantum Dot technology in some of their TVs but this is the first time Sharp has incorporated it into sets available in Europe. This new approach was best evidenced by its new EQ series of 4K Android TVs, all of which feature a ‘frameless’ (slim bezel) design and Quantum Dot technology the company is calling Q-COLOUR. While value for consumers will remain at the heart of what Sharp does, you should expect to see it releasing pricier products boasting cutting-edge features in the coming years. Not only is Sharp expanding the choice of products available in its core categories but, more significantly, it is seeking to reposition itself as a brand that offers options in the premium space. It was clear from the event that Sharp has some ambitious plans. Best smart TV 2022: The top televisions powered by webOS, Tizen, Google TV, Android TV and more
