LG Shows New 77-Inch Signature OLED TV At CEDIA 2016

They haven’t been out long, but LG has already managed to build a reputation around its OLED TVs, pushing the engineering science farther with every iteration. Get-go, there was a 55-inch model, then a 65-inch, and the company promised a 77-inch model. Now information technology has made good on that promise, debuting its new 77-inch Signature OLED Tv set at CEDIA 2016 on September fifteen.

The new Signature series model is its biggest, baddest TV nonetheless — and we hateful that in a good way — merely the screen isn’t the merely large part of this TV. At $20,000, this isn’t a TV most of us volition be bringing home. This cost tag gets yous the Television receiver, and LG’s Signature Concierge service, a one-on-one customer support and service program, meaning yous should never have to worry if you lot’re having trouble with the Television receiver.

To sweeten the deal, once customers register their Tv set, they’ll receive a $200 American Express gift carte du jour and LG G Pad Tablet. These customers will also receive future access to “special invitations,” though LG hasn’t even so specified exactly what this means.

“LG Signature represents the art of essence, the top of fashionable design and innovation,” LG Electronics U.s.a. vice president of marketing David VanderWaal said in a statement. “The new flagship 77-inch OLED Goggle box further elevates this new category of television with a dramatic domicile entertainment experience that means consumers tin can stop watching and get-go seeing.”

While many companies are focusing on effulgence and bigger nit counts, LG says it is the overall contrast that matters more, and nosotros tend to agree. OLED displays accept a distinct advantage here, with the pixels’ power to turn completely off making them capable of displaying true black.

Impressive size and client service aside, at that place isn’t much here that we haven’t already seen in the visitor’s G6 Signature TV that we reviewed earlier this year and establish to be 1 of the best TVs nosotros’ve seen. Both HDR10 and Dolby Vision are supported in addition to 4K resolution, and the colour and picture show depth is among the all-time that we’ve seen.

Though in that location are a non-trivial number of people who will buy this Boob tube despite the price, that isn’t the biggest role of the story here. The fact that LG has scaled its OLED engineering up to this 77-inch size when that simply wasn’t possible vi or seven years ago is impressive in and of itself. Information technology too ways that we’ll likely beginning seeing OLED TVs that are much more affordable in the fairly near future.
