Sharp to Introduce 16 New Slim, Compact G-Series AQUOS LCD TVs in 26V- to 52V*1-inch Screen Sizes

New Slim Design (Industry's Thinnest*2) Makes Wall-Mounting Easy All Models Equipped with Double-Speed 120-Hz Frame Rate LCD Panels for Superior Fast-Motion Image Processing

Sharp Corporation will introduce 16 new G-Series AQUOS models featuring an elegant, slim, compact design that takes advantage of the industry's thinnest profile of 8.1 cm and the light weight unique to LCD panels to be readily adaptable to a wide range of installation situations, in particular, for wall-mounting applications. Sharp equipped to all models use the Advanced Super View LCD Panel to reproduce smooth pictures even with fast-motion images, and strengthened picture quality, design, audio quality, and environmental performance.

LCD TVs are rapidly entering widespread use and replacement demand for flat-panel TVs, that is, replacing older living room models by purchasing new TVs with larger screens and higher resolution, is growing.

All models in this G Series feature a new compact design with a slimmer profile of 8.1 cm, the industry's thinnest, and offer a "small footprint with a big screen" that pushes the
meaning of space-saving to a new level. For example, a large 52-inch model^*3 can be
installed in the same width as our previous 43V-inch LCD TV^*4 model, giving the user approximately 10 inches more in screen size.

Plus, all models use the Kameyama Double-Speed Advanced Super View LCD Panel to reproduce smooth pictures even with fast-motion images, and feature high definition, fast response times, and wide viewing angles. In addition, they deliver a living room contrast^*5 of 900:1 (dark room contrast ratio of 2000:1) that reproduces crisp, clear, vivid pictures with pure, velvety blacks even in bright living room environments, enabling viewers to truly enjoy the full picture quality a video source has to offer, such as TV programs or movies and videos.

Further, these models also include a diverse range of other attractive features, including 1-Bit Digital Amplifier that reproduces clear, natural sound, and the AQUOS Familink^*6, an advanced interface that enables the viewer to comfortably use easily to operate AQUOS Blu-ray Disc Player, AQUOS HD Recorder, and AQUOS Audio System connected to the AQUOS TV.

By constantly pursuing picture quality, audio quality, design and environmental performance as the pinnacle of flat-panel TVs, the AQUOS is aiming to be the "entertainment TV of choice," offering new audio/visual lifestyles in sizes ranging from living room units to personal models.
