LIGHT UP YOUR WORLD
with SELF-LIT PiXELS

LG OLED TV is a joy to behold. Self-lit pixels allow truly spectacular picture quality and a whole host of design possibilities, while the latest cutting-edge technologies help deliver unprecedented levels of wonder. This is everything you love about TV — elevated in every way.

What makes OLED unlike anything else?

The answer is self-lit pixels. A self-luminous display technology that makes all the difference to your viewing experience. Unlike LED/LCD TVs that are restricted by backlight technology, LG OLED TVs are capable of extreme realism and thin designs.

SELF-LIT PiXELS.
Millions of reasons to love OLED.

When it comes to picture quality, OLED beats LED hands down. That's because OLED has millions of self-lit pixels capable of producing perfect black and accurate colour. The result is a viewing experience like no other.

Infinite Contrast

OLED puts LED
in the shade

Put simply, OLED has millions of self-lit pixels that can turn on and off to achieve infinite contrast. It doesn't matter how many thousands of backlights they have, LED TVs will still be in OLED's shadow.
100% Colour Volume

A dazzling display of colour.

LG OLED TVs achieve full Colour Volume thanks to the excellent colour reproduction technology of LG TVs. With 100% Colour Volume, LG OLED can express 100% of the DCI-P3 spectrum across a 3D colour space that covers the TV's full luminance range. This means that colours remain vivid and lifelike with full saturation no matter how bright or dark the display.
In bright scene, A girl is lying on the grass and the entire colour gets clearer and more vivid as colour volume rises from 70% to 100%. In dark scene, a girl is holding a colourful umbrella and the entire colour gets clearer and more vivid as colour volume rises from 70% to 100%.
