The South Korean manufacturer has just unveiled the 2024 generation of QNED LCD and Mini LED TVs, with a screen size of up to 98 inches (QNED85T)! Thus, LG follows Hisense, Samsung and TCL, among others, which also offer large LCD displays.
LG 2024 QNED TVs
The new TVs use LG's Quantum Dot and NanoCell LCD panels for clear, vivid picture quality. The QNED Mini LED TVs in the QNED99T (8K) and QNED90T series use MiniLED backlights with Precision Dimming technology, while the QNED85T and QNED80T have LEDs with local dimming for powerful contrast and brightness.
The new QNED models are powered by the latest α8 AI processor, which has a number of tools to improve image quality. AI Picture Pro uses machine learning to improve clarity and detail in photos: for example, it can read the difference between faces, objects and backgrounds, and adapt image processing accordingly. And at the same time he mourns Professional dynamic tone mapping To optimize HDR display in real time.
The top models have it too AI Audio Pro Which can simulate up to 9.1.2 surround sound, while WOW Orchestra ensures better integration with LG's new speakers.
New web operating system
The new QNED models have of course been updated with the latest version of the webO24 Smart TV user interface, where multiple users can create individual password-protected profiles for personalized recommendations. In some countries (US and Korea initially) you can also use your voice to recognize the user, using the remote's built-in microphone.
The latest version of WebOS has a “Dynamic Q Card” that can be sorted and provides faster access to various services in sports, gaming and entertainment. Additionally, the TVs support both Apple AirPlay and Chromecast, so you can stream content from iPhone and Android mobile phones.
Promises updates for five years
In connection with the launch, LG also announces that it promises to keep new models updated for up to five years. This means that the models will still receive software updates five years from now (from webOS24 to webOS28). This will definitely have some limitations in terms of hardware, but it will ensure that your TV stays up to date with the latest features. This service will reportedly also apply to certain 2022 models.
