LG Electronics (Singapore) today announced the launch of its highly anticipated 2022 OLED and QNED TV lineup. A pioneer and global leader in OLED technology, LG has been consistently perfecting their craft, which has allowed the company to secure its leadership position in the global premium TV market for nine years.
Featuring the company's acclaimed self-lit OLED technology, LG 2022 OLED TVs leverage on its precise pixel-level controls to deliver the deepest blacks, incredibly realistic colours, and an infinite contrast ratio. Providing consumers with more options, LG developed its exclusive Quantum Dot NanoCell technology for QNED TV range, raising the bar for LCD picture quality with elevated contrast and brightness, while producing rich and accurate colours that bring content of any genre to life.
Certified by international product testing agency, Intertek, for providing 100 percent colour volume and consistency, LG QNED TVs offer outstanding colour vibrancy across a wide viewing angle, allowing everyone in the room to enjoy the ultimate LCD viewing experience.
LG α9 Gen 5 Intelligent Processor
The new and improved LG α9 Gen 5 intelligent processor employs a deep-learning algorithm to enhance the upscaling performance of the latest OLEDs and 8K QNED Mini LED TVs, giving images a more three-dimensional quality by making onscreen elements more distinct from one another.
Equipped in the OLED G2, C2 and Z2 series models, the α9 Gen 5 also boasts the new Dynamic Tone-mapping Pro Algorithm, which individually processes over 5,000 areas on the screen, enhancing each to produce a more vivid and detailed image, in both brighter and darker parts of the picture. What's more, LG's latest processor boosts audio quality via the AI Sound Pro feature, enabling the TVs' built-in speakers to produce virtual 7.1.2 surround sound.
LG OLED evo
Featuring LG's most advanced OLED panel and the new α9 Gen 5 intelligent processor, LG's Evo technology is built into the 2022 G2 (LG OLED Evo Gallery Edition) and C2 series, taking home entertainment experiences to new heights. LG OLED Evo technology offers higher brightness, clarity and detail, for lifelike images that almost pops off the screen. Brightness is enhanced even further by the new Brightness Booster Max (G2 series) and Brightness Booster (C2 series), which are enabled by the increased processing power of the α9 Gen 5. Models from both G2 and C2 series have been recognized with CES 2022 Innovation Awards.
LG QNED Precision Dimming Technology
Unique to the QNED series, LG's proprietary Precision Dimming technology further enhances the image quality of the new QNED Mini LED TVs, ensuring greater peak brightness and deeper, more nuanced blacks. With up to approximately 30,000 Mini LEDs – each only 1/40 the size of a conventional LED – and thousands of local dimming zones, LG's QNED Mini LED TVs offer precise brightness control that makes every scene look and feel more realistic. The 8K QNED Mini LED TVs are also equipped with LG's new α9 Gen 5 intelligent processor with deep-learning. Among the many stellar features enabled by the powerful processor is AI Picture Pro, which analyzes and fine tunes each frame, using Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro to adjust the tone curve across over 5,000 blocks of each frame. The result is sharper, more dynamic images and far less of the visually distracting halo effect.
Acclaimed Picture Quality
Both LG OLED and QNED TVs continue to set the standard for unrivalled picture quality. The panels used in this year's lineup have again been certified by Intertek for providing 100 percent colour fidelity and 100 percent colour volume – indicating that 2022 LG TVs deliver accurate colour reproduction, and can express every single tone and hue of the original source no matter how bright or dark the onscreen action.
