In the 90s, Sharp tv used to make solid tvs and then they disappeared. Last year they started appearing and their tvs were going for 25k for 43" Google tvs. Now they are going for 18k for the same 43" running on Google OS. Can they stage a comeback and dethrone Hisense and TCL?
Shait this is a good offer

If the price is suspiciously low, they could be HiSense branded as Sharp. Hisense was branding its TVs as sharp for sometime after it had bought the Sharp TV brand.

These may be guys who have acquired the Sharp name because Hisense bought Sharp

Very true. I have done some googling and its true. Hisense bought the rights from Sharp to use the Sharp name on its TVs. It aint bad though, getting a 43" Google TV for 18k is a good bargain as long as pia wasiweke some shitty display panel.
