    The Good: Excellent black levels for an LCD TV; deinterlaced 1080i material properly; solid connectivity with 3 HDMI inputs; classy styling with thin frame around the screen and slim depth.

    The Bad: Relatively expensive; uneven uniformity manifests as irregular bands across screen; color becomes bluer in darker areas; lacks picture-in-picture.

    The Bottom Line: We loved the Sharp LC-52D64U's slim style and solid black-level performance, but we didn't like its less-than-uniform screen.

    Review Summary: Printed on a grayish paper that doesn't do much for its readability, the trilingual manual (66 pages of English) is helpful despite its text-heavy design. And you can always download the PDF version from Sharp's Web site
