Why 2017 is the year for LG OLED TVs

It’s 2017 and you want to buy a great TV. Here’s why we think an LG OLED TV is the way to go.

1. Contrast is key for amazing visuals

LG’s OLED TVs can produce “perfect blacks,” and 200 times deeper blacks than conventional LCD/LED TVs. This ability to create deeper contrast produces more visual ‘pop’ and greater depth.

2. Billions of colors for more realistic images

LG’s OLED TVs can display over a billion possible colors, 64 times more than conventional LCD/LED TVs. LG’s OLED TVs’ expanded color scope offers 99% of the Digital Cinema Initiative’s (DCI) color standard, which is the same color space that you get in movie theaters.

3. All-around Dolby Atmos sound for an immersive experience

LG’s OLED TVs ship with support for Dolby Atmos, which is a surround sound technology first developed for cinemas. Conventional sound output is based on left and right stereo speakers, whereas Dolby Atmos captures up to 128 different sound objects in a single scene at one time.

4. Future-proof with HDR formats

The emerging HDR landscape is rife with standards, which perform differently. With Dolby Vision, for example, brightness and contrast are adjusted uniquely in every scene, whereas HDR10 offers uniform image adjustments throughout the entire movie. LG’s OLED TVs support all of the major formats.

5. Easy to use

LG’s newest OLED TVs ship with webOS 3.5, a simple and fun to use interface that lets you smoothly find your favorite content and navigate through the TV’s settings. The LG Magic Remote lets you click, point and scroll to change the channel, and a Netflix hotkey gives you one-lick access to your Netflix subscription.
