Sharp Elite PRO-60X5FD Review Archive

3D

The Sharp Elite PRO-X5FD is a TV for enthusiasts. As such, it feels like Sharp paid more attention to the 2D performance than they did to the 3D performance. The 3D effect is underwhelming and has noticeable image ghosting, which ruins the immersion factor.

We again used two different calibrations and ran tests on both of them. We calibrated the TV in conjunction with the DisplayMate software, like we normally do, and we then used the Movie THX settings since there is no Elite Pure mode in 3D.

The results varied: while our calibration had better color consistency and produced a slightly brighter image, the Movie THX settings produced a more accurate range of colors.
