my 50-inch LG plasma blew up on me so I had to get a new one it's actually the second time it blew up same problem both times and it wasn't worth the money to fix it again so I got a new TV it's a 52 inch LCD it's a Sharp Aquos I picked up from Costco which for those of you outside of the US is a large warehouse store so I take you guys around it and I'll show you what we got on the box here 52 inch LCD right there a picture of a guy riding a BMX full 1080p Energy Star HD TV HDMI and all that goodness there's a model number two sharp LC - C five two five five you strap up coast slimline design advanced super view HD 1080p LCD TV high contrast brightness and ratio advanced connectivity it's got four HDMI ports two components PC inputs and additional connections so that's front of the box some boring instructions on the top I'll give you guys a profile truck you can see on the other side of the box looked exactly the same as the front I'm nothing terribly exciting there sharp aquos on the side some serial numbers and such pictures of the remote pictures are the connectors right there and on the other side of the box I'll take you around exactly the same thing nothing terribly exciting so let's go ahead and open this thing up so we've got a very special guest camera woman who is helping me record this my beautiful girl no this was an unanticipated expense I bought that about three years ago and I expected it to last much longer than it's just three years somebody use whatever a little influence I have a technology world to advise you don't buy LG your LG maybe finally made good luck with it a certain kind of knowledge so take it as a cautionary tale there's a cat playing with her duck she's quite into it that was a bribe I gave her for moving to a new place she's not happy to be put in the box and then locked in a bathroom all but my LG is it 50-inch plasma and this TV is actually significantly lighter than the outgoing call G so I don't know if it's just new technology or LCDs in general or later but something to keep in mind also one thing to know about little CD versus plasma which I just kind of learned you can't transport plasmas flat you always have to be upright LCDs you can turn around so if you have to put in the back of an SUV or truck or something you know you can't run away a flat desert so you come over here top of the box we've got I'll lick your remote control pretty standard remote control four buttons right there I'll probably never use this since I use a universal remote with my cable but case I do need it there it is and since I compare everything to the iPhone here's a comparison of the TV next to the iPhone you see it's got a one button right there just kidding guys alright so go over here it's a DOS we got power cord a stylist just a rapport it's a battery - they wrote the book so guys I'm going to take this out but it's gonna take two of us to get this out so the next thing you're gonna see is that the TV looks like out of the box so there is what it is inside feet box big TV they send you guys to see it it'll be unwrapped alright guys you finally got the TV out of the box let's take a look at the connections we've got an analog RGB for PC in I've got a DVI port s-video components video component video the old composite optical audio some analogue audio there are three HDMI ports my old one only had one so I'm quite happy about that and there's a fourth one right there on the side as well as component ports and a USB port which is a little bit weird you guys can see that down there strange keep going around nothing else here and the front of the TV is a great big panel nothing terribly exciting to look at but you got show you guys once I have it up on my stand so that one USB port we are talking about evidently you can take a USB stick with pictures and plug it right in and you can make your own little slideshow kind of cool nice job sharp most importantly its picture quality so I'm excited to plug this in and see what it looks like alright guys you got the TV up on the stairs a stand stand there ask some a little bit of the legs to it we had a build and screw in but they came with all the included screws not a big deal let's go ahead and take the plastic off this thing this is always fun always fun don't feel about making you guys too nauseous with my handheld action never claimed to be a director so guys there you go here is an unboxing of my Sharp Aquos I will use it for a little while and give you guys my impressions on it see you guys in the next video bye bye
