Title: Sharp Quattron TVs add a yellow pixel
Post by: feppe on May 09, 2010, 06:12:50 am

Sharp Quattron (http://www.sharpusa.com/ForHome/HomeEntertainment/LCDTVs.aspx?view=learnmore) TVs introduce a fourth, yellow, pixel into the RBG matrix. I was mostly interested in the gamut, and this review (http://www.flatpanelshd.com/review.php?subaction=showfull&id=1272005448) shows a gamut chart before and after calibration - the gamut is not spectacular, and delta E values are actually quite bad (compared to projectors which I'm more familiar with). AVS Forum has more on the topic (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1237271), with links to (conflicting and inconclusive) reviews on the second page.

In any case, it shows Sharp is willing to really think outside the box, and hopefully this will be a worthwhile technology as it matures.

All I know is I watched Avatar on a 60" Sharp w/the yellow pixel TV last night and it was very pretty.
