LG unveils slim curved 4K OLED TV

LG Electronics has unveiled its latest technology in television, the ‘Art Slim Curved 4K OLED TV’ in 65-inch screen size.

The latest television with the tag ‘65EG9600T’ is sleek, beautiful and eye-catching, comes with stunning 4K OLED picture quality, and offers the elegant sophistication of LG’s Art Slim design philosophy with the curved screen and floating stand which make a stylish statement and also helps to enhance the viewing experience.

LG’s Art Slim Curved 4K OLED TV is the recipient of a 2015 CES Innovations Award in the Video Display category.

“A triumph of technology and design, LG’s Art Slim Curved 4K OLED TV reinforces our commitment to leading the next-generation TV market,” said Youngchan Choi, Regional Manager at LG Electronics Ghana operations.

“Through LG’s proprietary 4K OLED technology the new device delivers a superior picture, rich in colour, contrast, depth and detail. It also implements new Art Slim Curved Design with floating stand, which oozes sophistication and heightens the viewer’s sense of immersion.”

LG’s new Art Slim design concept is evident in the slender, sensually curved form and miniscule screen bezels of the new TV. The almost-borderless display facilitates unconstrained and fully immersive viewing experiences, while the seamless merging of screen and stand produces a streamlined, ultra-modern aesthetic.

Perfectly complimenting the beautiful pictures displayed on screen, the physical form of the new TV is visually impressive and stunning. Designed with modernist insight, the stand and frame of the product contain minimalist notes of sophistication that allow the television to blend in perfectly with its environment.

It has a curved 4K resolution (3840 x 2160) OLED screen featuring LG’s 4 Colour Pixel WRGB technology. Boasting 33 million sub-pixels, the advanced display produces an infinite contrast ratio and lifelike perfect colours that are virtually indiscernible from those found in nature.

The screen’s self-lighting pixels provide perfect blacks and perfect colours, as well as a fast response rate that effectively eliminates motion blur. LG’s 4K OLED also offers a perfect viewing angle, allowing users to enjoy perfect quality -- with no loss of colour or contrast -- from almost any position.

Additionally, it employs an anti-reflective film on its screen to minimise distracting reflections.

The Perfect Mastering Engine optimises settings of the TV to boost picture quality to premium levels, and also can upscale SD, HD or Full HD content to near-4K quality. The advanced TV also has a built-in 4K High Efficiency Video Codec (HEVC) decoder that will ensure users’ ability to watch 4K broadcasts in the future.

The 65EG9600T incorporates an Ultra Surround system, which provides an audio performance worthy of the TV’s remarkable picture quality. It also includes webOS2.0, an upgraded version of LG’s acclaimed Smart TV platform that delivers even more fun, convenience and freedom than the original.

“LG OLED TV is a new category of TV that displays a wide gamut of accurate colour delivering a more vibrant image with breathtaking detail. The exceptional picture quality holds up even from a wide viewing angle, and it is supremely elegant, Ultra Slim and light. LG OLED TV is the future and finest TV you can buy right now,” Nii Ayi Hyde, Executive Director of Somotex Ghana Limited, said at the unveiling at the Palace Shopping Centre inside the Achimota Mall, Accra.
