![]() In addition, the LG V10™ makes capturing stunning still photos simple. Built for video, it boasts enhanced videography and editing features, as well as superior audio functionality and easy social sharing. It’s all pointing to a more complete TV package than before, but we’ll have to reserve a consensus for when we test the TVs later in the year.The LG 10™ VS990 in Luxe White delivers form and function as never before. We’re also looking forward to seeing the new interface, considering webOS is already one of the slickest UIs in the TV world. A reportedly brighter panel, DTS audio support and WOW Orchestra compatibility sets the G3 OLED as a more versatile and potentially better performing OLED TV than the G2. Should you stick and go for the G2, or twist and wait for the G3? It’s, of course, too early to say at this time, with the G3 OLED still several months away from release, but there are areas where it appears to be making a mark.Īnd the main area is being a home cinema powerhouse. LG disabled processing or pass-through of DTS audio to a sound system after the E9 OLED a few years ago.īut with DTS looking to beef up its presence within the streaming market, LG has brought it back, which should be handy as there’s news that Disney+ will be adding DTS audio to its service later in 2023 to fill out its IMAX Enhanced support. Let’s hope no one confuses LG’s WOW with World of Warcraft. With WOWCAST, you can add a dongle and have the TV wirelessly send lossless audio to the soundbar with no apparent lag. When connected, the interface between the TV and soundbar will offer better, tighter integration with each other. WOW Orchestra is not unlike Samsung’s Q Symphony audio technology in that it allows a compatible LG soundbar to partner with the TV to create a bigger and more immersive soundscape. It’s got the WOW Synergy factorīrands love synergy with their own products and with WOW Orchestra, LG is taking a leaf out of Samsung’s playbook. It looks to be more economical in terms of the space it takes up on the screen, and may even lead to speedier, less laggy navigation with fewer items on the screen. These are snippets for games, movies, music, sports etc that you can click on and it’ll lead you to a hub with more information and detail. It remains a full-screen interface but now makes use of what LG is referring to as ‘Quick Cards’. WebOS has a new lookĪ couple of years after its first major revamp, webOS has been tweaked to be both simpler to use and offer more in-depth features. You can place it on furniture but you’ll have to purchase the stand separately. Like the G2, the G3 is only packaged with a wall-mount. Unsurprisingly, customers didn’t quite understand it.Īnd so the Gallery terminology has been ditched in favour of Zero Gap to give prospective buyers a (slightly) better sense of what they’re getting into. LG had previously branded the G-series OLEDs as its Gallery range, the inference being this is a TV you would hang on a wall (like a painting). That is quite a step up from the G2, which was around 1000 nits in its Standard picture mode. LG has said the panel can offer a peak brightness up to 2100 nits without specifying the conditions/modes. The technology doesn’t yet stretch to the 83- and 97-inch models. However, only the 55-, 65- and 77-inch feature the MLA panel. It has a new Micro Lens Array panel (not to be confused with the similarly sounding Micro LED), and this new panel redirects light that would normally be reflected off the screen back towards the viewer, the benefits being a higher peak brightness and wider viewing angles. ![]() They have the means to further the technology as they see fit.Īnd one of those advances is the OLED screen the G3 uses. LG aren’t one to rest on its laurels, especially since LG Display is the manufacturer of pretty much all the OLED panels that anyone outside of Samsung uses. This guide will run through the differences between the two models. If, however, you’re all in favour of LG’s wall-mounting OLED, the question is whether to wait and get the G3 when it launches or go for the existing G2 OLED. ![]() The conundrum is that the G-series also tends to be LG’s best for picture quality, so there’s a compromise to be made. The G3 is set to be their top tier 4K OLED, but the G-series OLEDs are for a particular type of customer who prefers to wall-mount their TVs. LG’s latest range of TVs are on their way to a store (or online retailer) near you later this year, and it will continue the Korean brand’s pursuit of ensuring every home has an OLED TV (preferably from LG).
