Sharp Elite PRO-60X5FD Review Archive

Software & Internet

What kind of menu should a super high-class television have? Should the panels have pictures of diamonds around the borders? How about excessive animations every time something is selected?

Sharp opted to give the Elite PRO-X5FD a minimalist menu instead of making it look like a GeoCities webpage circa 1999. The grey panel that pops up on the left-side of the screen has a textured appearance that matches the bezels on the TV. Navigating the menu interface is easy and never feels like a chore.

There is internet content on the Elite: five apps worth of content, to be exact. Rest assured—Netflix is included, just not much else.
