Have you ever wondered how many LG OLED TVs are shipped every year? 100 thousand units perhaps, maybe as much as a million? In the first half of 2023, LG recorded over 1.33 million shipments of its stunning OLED TVs, setting new benchmarks and records its competitors can only dream of.

According to market research firm

, LG captured over 55 percent of the global OLED TV market in the first six months based on total shipments. As a renowned OLED TV leader now celebrating 10 years of innovation in this space, LG has once again defended its premium TV crown while further cementing LG OLED TV’s status as the pinnacle of premium TVs.

The “bigger the better” trend continues to prevail in the TV market, which is great news for LG. As more and more people desire larger TVs for their living spaces, models of 75 inches or larger accounted for a remarkable 11.4 percent share of total OLED TVs sold, while shipments’ yearly average growth rate topped 90 percent over the past five years. Staying on top of this growing trend, LG is resuming its dominance in the market with an outstanding 64.2 percent share in total shipments of OLED TVs over 75 inches.

LG is targeting this new demand for large and premium TVs in the second half of 2023 with the groundbreaking TV (model 97M3) it unveiled in July, which boasts the world’s first 4K 120Hz wireless solution that makes it easy for customers to achieve their dream interior.

Not one to be confined, LG unleashed a tidal wave of 10 million TV units (OLED and LCD) on the world, which has helped the company carve out a 16.2 percent share of revenue for itself in the global TV market.

Despite facing a downturn in the global TV market, LG persisted in strengthening its inventory management and securing higher profits while actively pursuing a strategic approach for its premium and ultra-large displays. And this commitment has paid off substantially, with its LG OLED TVs now accounting for around 30 percent of the company’s overall revenue generated from TV sets.

TV shipments totaled over 92 million units in the first half of 2023, matching last year’s first half performance. The OLED TV segment, which has been led by LG for a number of years, has already passed the 2 million shipments mark this year, which bodes well for the rest of 2023.

OLED TVs are continuing their takeover of the global TV market after capturing 9.3 percent of all revenue in the first half. Meanwhile, Omdia predicts that OLED TVs are set to shine even brighter, projecting at least a 43 percent revenue share among premium TVs priced above USD 1,500.

      With the stage set for an action-packed summer of sports, LG’s latest lineup of TVs and soundbars are here to bring every world-class play to life. To curate the most authentic spectator experience at home, LG is combining breathtaking visuals with mesmerizing audio, ensuring that every game-defining moment or demonstration of athletic brilliance can be viewed in all its glory.
      As sport broadcasts in 4K resolution become more available, LG TVs are set to deliver the vibrant colors and lifelike clarity that fully immerse spectators in the unmistakable tension of a knockout competition this summer. Pairing 4K images with an ultra-large LG TV screen allows sports fans to fully engage with every crucial moment and celebration. From capturing the game-winning action to faithfully depicting the stadium’s energetic atmosphere, this powerful combination puts the viewer into the thick of the action with an unrivalled level of realism.
      Powered by the α (Alpha) AI processor, which optimizes picture and audio quality, every detail of the game, down to each blade of grass and chant of the crowd, is presented with sharp and vivid clarity. The latest cutting-edge Alpha AI processors developed by LG also feature AI Super Upscaling1 with precise pixel-level image analysis, revealing the details and depth in the scene. Even when a broadcast is not in 4K, AI Super Upscaling intelligently enhances the resolution of the incoming signal to transform it into detailed 4K images. Using advanced algorithms to increase pixel density, LG TVs ensure that every shot on goal and thrilling play is displayed with clarity, so not a single moment is missed.
      For tailored viewing experiences, LG TVs offer several versatile settings such as Sports Mode, which adds greater clarity to the players’ movements and expressions. Another aspect that sets LG TVs apart is the ability to render fast-paced games with precision. TruMotion technology, which offers five different options, helps boost the clarity of fast movements such as a pass, shot or dunk. The LG OLED evo M, G and C series have all been VESA certified with a ClearMR 9000 rating, meaning they boast 85 to 95 times more clear pixels than blurry ones.
      The LG OLED and QNED TVs have wide viewing angles that let viewers share those ‘where were you?’ sports moments with family and friends, who can watch from practically anywhere in the room. The ultimate sports viewing experience is attainable through LG OLED’s self-lit pixels that emit light in all directions, or QNED’s Quantum Dot and NanoCell color technologies which deliver crisp, vivid pictures from every angle.
      To cater to the unique needs and preferences of every sports fanatic, LG OLED TVs come in various sizes. For larger rooms, the ideal option could be the ultra-large 97-inch model which places them at the heart of every play and celebration. For smaller rooms, LG OLED TV models start at 42 inches to let viewers watch the big game without sacrificing image clarity or detail. LG’s newest QNED TVs are available from 43 to 98 inches, so there’s something for every type of fan.
      LG’s convenient Sports Portal2 has been introduced as a hub for sports channels, live content, match schedules, scores and more. This new feature lets viewers use keywords to search the web and offers curated lists of major sports leagues and apps to personalize the sports entertainment experience.
      LG TVs’ Multi-View feature, powered by the Alpha 11 processor, divides the screen into four sections so that users can watch four different sources of content at once. This advanced feature delivers unmatched flexibility on top of highly immersive sports viewing experiences.
      The latest Alpha processor also uses AI to optimize the audio experience. For example, AI Sound Pro enriches sound by utilizing the virtual 11.1.2 surround sound from the TV’s built-in speaker system, effectively capturing the stadium’s distinctive ambiance and injecting it into the living room.
      LG’s OLED and QNED TVs effortlessly pair with LG’s compatible soundbars through WOWCAST Built-in.3 Notably, WOW Orchestra creates three-dimensional audio with the TV’s built-in speakers and separate soundbar working in harmony to unify sounds and envelope viewers with dynamic soundscapes, making it feel like they’re in the stadium themselves.
      Geared up with a center up-firing speaker and AI-powered tuning, LG soundbars harness the power of Dolby Atmos to transform the home into a stadium of spectators. Dolby Atmos provides immersive audio experiences from the crisp snap of a ball being kicked to the thunderous applause cascading around viewers. The added height channel vividly captures the movement of players and the roar of the crowd, with sound emitting from multiple directions to achieve a new level of realism. Timely, as some sporting events this summer will be broadcast in 5.1.4 immersive audio, creating a dome of surround sound for greater spatial realism.
      LG soundbars’ center up-firing speaker also delivers clear dialogue, so viewers can catch the commentator’s every word. Combined with LG’s Triple Level Spatial Sound Technology, the three-dimensional sound experience is further enhanced by utilizing multiple audio channels and height effects to add a virtual mid-layer. This helps fans feel like they are almost beside the athletes, hearing the subtlest details across the auditory landscape.

      When the game is over, but friends want to keep the excitement alive, LG TVs and soundbars can deliver captivating visuals and powerful sounds for movie night. With Dolby Vision, LG TVs vividly elevate movies with their vibrant colors and sharp details, delivering cinematic immersion in the comfort of home. When paired with LG Dolby Atmos soundbars, the audio experience envelopes viewers in rich, dynamic soundscapes that heighten the realism of every scene. For the avid gamer, LG TVs boast high-quality displays and gamer-centric features that ensure compelling graphics and immersive audio for dynamic, breathtaking gaming experiences.

      Hello everyone.
      I own a TV LG oled65c31la.aeu. I am interested in whether it is planned in the next firmware updates to return to multiview the
      option of displaying two live channels (antenna dvt2), as it was earlier in webos 2.
      Previously, a buffer was created in which terrestrial channels were saved, from where they were marked for display.
      Thank you.

      While the appearance of most appliances rarely changes, the television’s aesthetic is constantly evolving through its vibrant display. Positioned prominently in most people’s living rooms, the TV serves as a window to another world, transforming the space into a stadium one moment and providing panoramic views of the great outdoors the next. The atmosphere of the room often hinges on the placement of this essential device.

      To ensure their design complements any room, LG’s latest lineup of TVs boasts a thinner form and slimmer bezels, providing complete immersion whether watching shows, films or playing games. These efforts extend to reducing the number of cables to eliminate clutter and visual distractions around the screen. Additionally, LG has paid close attention to the design of peripheral devices, such as soundbars, to ensure they harmonize with the room’s overall aesthetic. The driving force behind this new design direction is a deeper appreciation for people’s ever-evolving daily lives. Nowadays, people invest considerable time and effort into the layout and design of their homes, often seeking ways to place their TV in locations that better match their lifestyle, rather than simply following its conventional placement in the living room. The TV is evolving in response to emerging trends, more diverse lifestyles and consumers’ changing needs.

      More Thoughtful Living Spaces
      Naturally integrating a large TV screen into its surroundings can be challenging. While most large TVs tend to dominate the design of a living space, a large LG TV complements the interior, adding unique design elements that enhance depth and ambiance.

      The best decorated living rooms all have one thing in common: a TV that naturally integrates with the rest of the space under a unifying theme. To help home designers achieve this, LG OLED TVs fit flush to the wall like a picture frame, transforming the space to resemble an art gallery when placed centrally. These designs utilize the TV as a focal point to set the tone and evoke desired emotions, clearly emphasizing the TV as the ‘main character’ without compromising the room’s elegance and identity. This is why LG emphasizes the ‘essentials’ when designing LG OLED TVs, focusing on the inherent value of the TV in everyday life to create designs that bring people closer to their dream home.

      Seamlessly Blending into Living Spaces
      Today’s TVs must be able to blend into their surroundings. While large-screen TVs often look best mounted on the wall, small and medium-sized TVs can be placed anywhere in the room to match the user’s lifestyle.
      TV stands are providing people with the freedom to position their TVs where design and functionality are maximized. The simple yet elegant LG OLED Gallery Stand1 accentuates content by resembling a canvas on an easel. Similar to the LG OLED Objet Collection Posé, this design frees up space and can serve as a room partition, offering new perspectives on interior design with a back that doesn’t need to be hidden away.
      Flawless Designs Pay Attention to Unseen Elements
      As lifestyles diversify and spaces expressing individuality increase, LG is innovating TVs that consider every design element, even the parts that are normally out of sight like the back of the TV. This helps them blend naturally into any space and achieve an unmatched sense of ‘harmony.’ To strike the ideal balance between elegance and functionality, every ornament and piece of furniture, including the TV, must harmonize under one concept. This desire for ‘harmony’ in the home is bringing exterior elements, such as natural light and natural materials, into the home as if they were seamlessly flowing from the outside to the inside. This is known as the “biophilic” design trend.

      A ‘biophilic’ décor incorporates natural materials like stone, wood and metal while utilizing nature’s most iconic colors and textures, appealing to our innate connection to the natural world. This emerging concept promotes the use of large windows to fill the house with natural light and the ‘planterior’ trend, which employs plants to elevate the ambiance, transforming the interior into a natural space for healing and relaxation. LG’s new design direction for its TVs aligns with ‘biophilic’ values, emphasizing visual comfort in a natural setting.
      To keep pace with these trends and accommodate lifestyle changes, LG recognized the need to focus on details it had previously overlooked. This is why LG has redesigned the back panel of its TVs.
      This image was created to aid understanding
      Inspired by the tranquility found in nature, LG added a rustic sensibility to the LG OLED evo C4’s modern design with the ‘Statement Stone’ pattern. This feature mimics the look and texture of stone, adding depth and elegance to the space, while its natural ‘Umber Brown’ shade reinvents the back panel with a warm, nature-inspired tone. The emotions this design evokes harmonize with emerging trends, such as the ‘biophilic’ concept.
      This image was created to aid understanding
      The stand design, which has also evolved to suit different usage environments, is no different. With stands evolving with new TV designs, LG added a height adjustment function to some stands.2 Although this may seem minor at first glance, its impact goes beyond expectations by allowing nearby devices, such as soundbars, to be positioned in a way that harmonizes with the TV as well as users’ diverse lifestyles.
      This image was created to aid understanding
      The same principles have been applied to the LG OLED M, the world’s first wireless OLED TV.3 To conceal peripheral devices and neatly organize the device’s cables, LG has removed every wire except the power cable with its Zero Connect Box,4 which wirelessly transmits video and audio to keep the area around the TV simple and clutter-free. By implementing a design that considers hidden, easily missed design details, the LG OLED M gives homeowners the opportunity to curate a space for their distinctive lifestyles.
      By aiming for design perfection down to the smallest details, LG is developing TVs that naturally merge with the interior design without losing sight of the essential elements that make a TV so important in everyday life.

      As the mobility industry shifts towards software-defined vehicles (SDVs), the importance of automotive displays continues to grow. Advanced display technology is already enhancing in-car infotainment systems and user experiences by presenting drivers with a wealth of vehicle and road-related information, while offering passengers an array of entertaining content.
      The trend of incorporating larger and more numerous displays within vehicles, often referred to as ‘screenification,’ is elevating the convenience, safety and enjoyment of vehicle occupants, while also influencing vehicle cabin design. OLED panels, known for their superior image quality and unmatched flexibility (both literally and in terms of design), are increasingly being adopted in the premium auto segment.
      Market research firm Omdia projects that by 2030, one out of every two information display units used in premium vehicles will be an OLED panel. Several global automakers are now equipping their high-end models with large, high-resolution displays to meet customers’ evolving expectations and preferences. With their stunning colors, clarity and contrast, OLED panels are raising the bar for automotive displays and are expected to drive the market’s continued expansion.

      OLED technology makes it possible to create large, curved and flexible screens for use in digital cockpits. In response to the auto industry’s increasing interest in premium displays, the R&D laboratory at LG’s Vehicle component Solutions (VS) Company has recently developed an algorithm for its in-vehicle OLED displays that compensates for any visual distortion related to viewing angle. This advanced technology, first showcased at Display Week 2024, ensures that LG’s automotive OLED screens deliver consistent brightness and distortion-free colors from practically any angle. As a result, drivers can now see images and text more clearly across all parts of the display, enhancing safety by reducing the time needed to check on-screen information.
      LG’s new technology overcomes the viewing-angle limitations typically associated with large, curved OLED displays. Currently, LG is the only automotive display supplier to have developed an algorithm that corrects these particular issues and is now in the process of commercializing this innovation.
      Research into flexible OLED automotive displays has been a major focus for LG VS Company’s R&D laboratory over the past year. Kim Kyung-lack, vice president of Display Development at LG VS Company, noted that due to extensive and ongoing efforts, LG is able to offer a wide range of automotive displays leveraging next-generation technology to deliver outstanding performance. Since 2022, LG has been developing advanced in-vehicle displays and now boasts an impressive portfolio of solutions, including screens with rollable, flexible and foldable form factors. The company’s diverse offerings provide automakers with more choices when designing vehicle interiors and offer vehicle users a richer, more varied in-car experience.
      Beyond automotive displays and components such as EV motors and smart lamps, LG VS Company offers cutting-edge in-vehicle software platforms and solutions. This software integrates seamlessly with the company’s display products to form a complete in-car experience solution, adding significant value for automakers seeking to enhance the functionality of their existing infotainment systems.
      Through its innovative solutions for vehicles, LG is accelerating the arrival of the SDV era and playing a leading role in redefining the future of mobility.
