Guide to Sharp Aquos LCD TV model numbers
Today we’re continuing our guide to understanding TV model names. At first glance, TV product names are generally pretty complicated, unmemorable and unpronounceable combinations of letters and numbers. To the uninitiated this doesn’t help when you’re trying to find your way around the large television market.
However, closer inspection does often reveal some logic behind the names manufacturers give to their latest gift to the world. Today I’m going to walk through Sharp’s naming conventions, with the help of the friendly guys at Sharp.
- The first letters show the type of screen: LC for LC, which is currently the only kind of TV Sharp Aquos makes
- The first two numbers refer to the screen size in inches
- The next letters and numbers are the series. Higher numbers mean better models. For example:
LC19D1E - 19″ HD ready Freeview built-in
LC26D44E - 26″ HD ready Freeview built-in
LC46D65E - 46″ HD ready 1080p Freeview built-in
LC42DH77E - 42″ HD ready 1080p Freeview built-in 100Hz
- All of Sharp’s UK models end in E.
