With four times the pixel resolution of high definition and Sharp's proprietary Revelation™ 4K Upscaler, everything you watch on the AQUOS 4K Ultra HD LED TV appears sharper, more realistic, more stunning.  The 70" class (69.5" diagonal) AQUOS 4K not only offers a more vivid image, it also offers 16% more screen size than leading competitors' 65" Class TVs.

"For the past several years the focus with high-end television panels was on delivering a more exciting experience through size. With the introduction of our AQUOS 4K TV, we now offer consumers an even more life-like TV experience coupling size with resolution and clarity," said John Herrington, President, Sharp Electronics Marketing Company of America. 

Transform ordinary content into extraordinary 
Everything you watch on the AQUOS 4K Ultra HD LED TV, regardless of whether or not it is native 4K (3840 x 2160) content, can be seen in 4K detail.

Sharp's built-in Revelation™ 4K Upscaler converts all content into 4K resolution. First, a dual-core processor fine-tunes the original signal for optimal picture quality. Next, Sharp's proprietary Revelation™ 4K Upscaler instantly analyzes and intelligently enhances the content to create a 4K image. Movies, TV shows and video games are sharper and more vivid.

This reliable and precise two-step upscaling process along with superb screen uniformity, color performance and motion processing, earned Sharp the esteemed THX 4K certification, which sets the industry standard for image quality and consistency.

Certified Amazing 
Created by experts in Hollywood, THX 4K certification sets the industry standard for image quality and consistency. The experts at THX put the AQUOS 4K Ultra HD LED TV through 400 rigorous performance tests; the AQUOS 4K Ultra HD was the first TV to pass them all and carry the THX 4K certification.

THX also evaluates HD to 4K upconverting technology to ensure that the Ultra HD image maintains accuracy true to the original HD source, so you experience content the way it was intended.

16% More Amazing Than the 65" Class
The AQUOS 4K Ultra HD LED TV is the only Ultra HD TV available in an eye-popping 70 inch (69.5" Diagonal) class size, the most popular 65"+ screen size. The 70" class offers 16% more screen area than leading competitors' 65" class LED TVs.*

A Higher Standard of Design 
It has a sleek frame with a metallic black finish and modern open-base stand.
