While unveiling 68 new models, LG has introduced its 2014 TV lineup in Korea. The new models include ULTRA HD TVs in sizes ranging from 49 to 105 inches, its largest collection to date. Among its new models is LG’s groundbreaking 105-inch Curved ULTRA HD TV in addition to its smaller 65-, 55- and 49-inch curved 4K units.
“We are extremely confident that our state-of-the-art ULTRA HD and OLED TV models will establish a new benchmark this year,†said Hyun-hwoi Ha, president and CEO of the LG Electronics Home Entertainment Company.
LG ULTRA HD TVs incorporate In-Plane Switching (IPS) panels that offer exceptional colour accuracy and consistently superb picture quality with minimal colour distortion from practically any vantage point. The ULTRA HD sets all have the ability to upscale standard HD and Full HD content to near 4K quality.
All 2014 ULTRA HD TV models from LG are equipped with an advanced 3D conversion engine. They also produce a convincing 3D effect with mininmal flicker in 4K resolution..
To bring the benefits of OLED TV technology to as many consumers as possible, LG is introducing both FULL HD as well as 4K ULTRA HD models. Added benefits such as eGallery will showcase the rich colours and lifelike features of LG’s OLED TVs. eGallery boasts more than 150 works of mood-enhancing content, including paintings from some of the world’s most renowned artists, gorgeous landscape images, accompanied by beautiful melodies.
As announced at the Consumer Electronics Show in January, the simple and intuitive webOS platform will be featured in more than half of TVs. Its ease-of-use makes content searching and viewing, connecting with other devices, and even the initial setup process incredibly smooth.
The first time the user turns on a webOS Smart TV, an inviting, animated character, BeanBird, appears onscreen to help get connected and walk the user through the setup process. And the new, open platform makes it extremely easy for developers to create applications and enhances the compatibility of LG’s Smart TVs with other devices.
