The CES 2022 is about to begin, but some
companies have introduced early part of its new
products for this year. Samsung unveiled its Neo QLED and MicroLED televisions earlier this week. Now it is the turn of LG, which has unveiled its new Smart TVs with OLED display panels .
The South Korean company has also taken the
opportunity to unveil the new version of its operating system for
smart televisions . webOS will jump nonstop from version 6.0 to version 22. This will
arrive with the function of personal profiles, content
recommendations and new interactive applications.
New sizes of OLED televisions and bet on QNED MiniLed
The G2 series,
characterized by its flush-to-the-wall gallery designs,
debuts the "world's first 97-inch OLED model " and complements the 55-, 65- and 77-inch sizes already on the market.
For its part, the C2 series, which has slim bezels and a wide
variety of screen sizes, incorporates " the world's first 42-inch OLED television" and also offers the sizes of 48, 55, 65, 77, 83 inches .
LG has also announced that it will expand its line of QNED MiniLed televisions with
Quantum Dot NanoCell technology . The
manufacturer claims that it offers richer colors and more accurate blacks thanks to its dimming technology.
This proposal may be interesting for those who prefer a panel with less risk of
burns. However, it should be noted that not all QNED 2022 models will use MiniLed technology .
LG says that most of its new TVs will arrive with α9 Gen5
processors that allow them to display better images thanks to artificial
intelligence. Brightness Booster, meanwhile, will allow the G2 series models to achieve a higher brightness.
In terms of 'gaming', the company ensures that OLED models will support "
multiple functions" of HDMI 2.1 "for fans of
console and PC games", a clarification that is valid before the arrival of HDMI 2.1a and possible confusion about the functions of the standard.
They will also have built-in support for
NVIDIA GeForce NOW and Google Stadia cloud gaming platforms . Players with a subscription just need to plug in a compatible controller and start playing.

Smart TVs scales up to version 22 and comes with a wide range of
