Sharp has announced two new 8K smart TVs for the Japanese market named Sharp Aquos 8T-C70CX1 and Sharp Aquos 8T-C60CX1. As their name suggests, they feature 70-inch and 60-inch 8K panels, respectively. The company will be only manufacturing 2,500 units of them and they will go on sale from April 25 at an undisclosed price.

The new Sharp Aquos 8T-C70CX1 and Sharp Aquos 8T-C60CX1 smart TVs feature the company’s 8K Pure Color panel with a 16% wider color gamut than the display manufacturer’s conventional 4K TVs. 

The TVs come with Sharp Medalist Z1 image processing engine and Rich Color Technology Pro to offer rich and realistic colors as well as good viewing angles. The TVs also offer good brightness levels via UV2A liquid crystal technology by analyzing video signals along with detecting light sources and reflectors.

Both the TVs come with two HDMI 2.1 ports for 8K 60Hz and 4K 120Hz video inputs. The TVs also support dedicated 8K sports mode and can also upscale 4K content to 8K. They are even certified for HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG. 

Further, these TVs also come with 70W (2.2.2) speakers powered by Eilex PRISM. Finally, they run Android TV 9.0 Pie OS with Cocoro Vision on top of it for content recommendations.
