Sharp Aquos 4TC65HP7050U 65"

The Sharp Aquos 4TC65HP7050U is a budget 65-inch QLED with vibrant color and Dolby Vision, but it's held back by a single HDMI port and a 60Hz panel. The display quality is a genuine highlight at 83rd percentile. At $550, it's fine for casual streamers, but anyone with multiple devices should look elsewhere.

The quantum dot layer does real work here. Colors pop, and the display quality sits well above average in our rankings. Dolby Vision support helps with HDR content, though the HDR performance overall is just middle of the pack. The X7 Revelation Processor keeps 4K streaming smooth, but the 60Hz panel means fast motion gets soft. Sports score a mediocre 46.6 out of 100, and movies land at 44.3. Audio is dead average with Dolby Atmos support that sounds fine but won't fill a big room. The single HDMI port is the real bottleneck. You'll be swapping cables constantly if you have a soundbar, console, and streaming stick.

Stacked against the LG C5 OLED, this Sharp gets absolutely demolished on picture quality, gaming, and connectivity. The LG costs way more, so that's expected. Against the Hisense U8 Series 65U8QG, the Sharp loses on HDR performance and smart features. The TCL QM8K also offers better gaming chops with higher refresh rates. Where the Sharp wins is price. At $550, it undercuts most competitors significantly. But you feel every dollar you saved when you're reaching behind the TV to swap HDMI cables.

At $550 USD, this is a budget 65-inch QLED with some real compromises. You're getting a big screen with good color and Dolby Vision, which is rare at this price. But the single HDMI port and weak gaming performance mean you're paying for size, not versatility. If you just want a big TV for Netflix and casual viewing, the value is decent. If you need anything more, you'll outgrow this thing fast.

The Sharp Aquos 4TC65HP7050U is a 65-inch 4K QLED TV that tries to punch above its weight with quantum dot color and Dolby Vision. The display itself is a bright spot, landing in the 83rd percentile in our database. But the rest of the package feels like Sharp cut corners to hit a budget price point.

You get one HDMI port. One. In 2025, that's almost a joke for a 65-inch TV. The X7 Revelation Processor handles streaming fine, but this is not a TV for gamers or anyone with multiple devices. It's a big, colorful screen for casual streaming and not much else.

Skip this if you have a game console, soundbar, or streaming box you want to connect. The single HDMI port makes multi-device setups a nightmare. Also skip it if you watch a lot of sports or action movies, the 60Hz panel and mediocre motion handling will leave you underwhelmed. If you need better HDR performance, the Hisense U8 Series is a stronger pick for not much more money.

This TV is for someone who wants a big, colorful screen for streaming and doesn't own a game console, soundbar, or Blu-ray player. If that's you, the Sharp Aquos delivers decent picture quality for the money. Everyone else should save up for something with more ports and a faster panel.
