      will.i.am Founder and CEO of FYI.AI Takes Center Stage at LG U.S. Headquarters for Day-long Celebration of LG’s ‘xboom by will.i.am’ Launch
      By News Reporter
      In a groundbreaking step toward redefining its audio experience, LG officially launched its highly anticipated LG “xboom by will.i.am” audio lineup in the United States on April 14. To celebrate the occasion, LG welcomed multi-platinum artist, tech innovator, and Founder and CEO of FYI.AI, will.i.am to its North American headquarters for the first time. The visit marked not just a product debut, but the beginning of a new era for LG’s xboom brand, one infused with artistic vision and cutting-edge sound crafted in collaboration with will.i.am himself.
      will.i.am ascended the iconic “Life’s Good” stairs at the North American Headquarters and began his day meeting with Jung Kyu-hwang, CEO of LG Electronics North America, to discuss their shared enthusiasm for the partnership and the future of the xboom brand.

      will.i.am signed 50 exclusive posters featuring him alongside the LG xboom Grab, one of the standout speakers in the new lineup. He also took time to sign branded notecards for LG employees and special guests, adding a thoughtful touch to the day. The LG audio team surprised him in return with a swag bag filled with every product in the new xboom lineup, complete with a custom “xboom by will.i.am” luggage tag – a small nod to the collaboration’s unique fusion of tech and style.

      The special day, consisting of media, marketing and employee engagement activities, kicked off with a private Q&A session followed by in-depth demos, attended by media and influencers, and hosted by Aaron Westbrook, LG’s head of Audio Marketing. The two discussed how the LG “xboom by will.i.am” partnership came about, what fuels and inspires his creativity, and where his passion for artificial intelligence and technology originated. will.i.am also demoed RAiDiO.FYI on his LG xboom Grab speaker, opening up a conversation between himself and an AI persona named Fyin.

      The hands-on demo session generated many “wow” moments. Phones were out and cameras rolled as the xboom speakers endured a series of durability tests, including being buried in sand and submerged in water, showing impressive results. Jack Kiledjian and Scott Cohen from LG’s Customer Value Enablement team also ran blind sound tests against competitor products, allowing attendees to compare and hear the superior performance of the LG “xboom by will.i.am” speakers without bias.

      In a surprise appearance at the LG cafeteria, will.i.am stepped in as emcee for an “xboom by will.i.am” product raffle. Winners took home a variety of items from the new audio lineup, along with signed will.i.am posters, turning an ordinary lunch into an unforgettable moment.

      Keeping the energy going, will.i.am headed to LG’s state-of-the-art Virtual Studio to film an unboxing video alongside Speedy Morman, well-known influencer and host of “360 with Speedy.” The video blended entertainment, tech, and content creation into a fun and engaging showcase of the entire new LG xboom lineup.

      To cap off the eventful day, LG and will.i.am hosted a private meet-and-greet with randomly selected employees. Each winner received a professional photo with will.i.am and a signed commemorative poster. Employees were encouraged to share their snapshots on social media to spread the excitement and amplify the launch buzz beyond the LG campus.
      This special day was a celebration of collaboration, creativity and community. Through his visit, will.i.am helped foster a deeper connection between the media, influencers, LG U.S. employees and the new xboom lineup, giving them a front-row seat to the innovation behind the brand’s new sound identity.

      Super slow internet (WiFi) when streaming
      By NickL
      Hi,
      I recently bought an LG UK6500PLA TV (my first LG), but I have a difficult time streaming content (Wifi connected), e.g. Netflix series is streaming in low resolution.  The router is only 10 feet away from TV (but ethernet is not an option) and uses a 5GH frequency range.
      I have tried making a speed test at fast.com, for both the TV (through the Webbrowser) and for my laptop and iPhone. The speed test for TV showed 2.5 Mbps and my laptop and iPhone showed 110 Mbps. Can there really be such a big difference? I am starting to wonder if this might be a warranty issue?
      Do any of you guys have experience with bad Wifi reception on your LG TV or have any suggestions on how to fix it? 
       
      Br,

      Foreign language subtitles in HDMI connected streaming devices not working
      By BGee
      On my LG 60SJ850T, Watching Horizon from AppleTV streaming service. Western with some scenes with Apache language being spoken. No subtitles appearing. When CC is on, see “foreign language being spoken”. When viewed on iPhone, there are subtitles. Have tried same movie using chrome cast TV, and casting from iPhone to Apple TV device. Never get subtitles. Verified subtitles work when I stream to same chromecast TV connected to a different TV. 
       
      reset LG TV to factory settings after trying all available CC and subtitle settings on TV. Still no subtitles.
