LG
Havingalready announced its upcoming soundbar lineup , LG now turns to its 2024 QNED flavor of televisions . And while we do n’t yet fuck pricing or availability in the U.S. — that ’ll come subsequently — we do know the active fixings behind the set that continue to combine quantum battery-acid with NanoCell engineering science in a space that sit just below LG ’s OLED TVs .
And as you suspect by now , that active ingredient is AI .
That all start with the α8 C.P.U. ( pronounced “ Alpha Eight ” ) . LG says it has a 1.3x step-up in AI performance over what it ’s replacing , a 2.3x enhancement in graphics performance , and a raw processing speed that is 1.6x quicker . So what does that intend to you , the human whose orb are trail on the silver screen ? Hopefully nothing . Hopefully , you do n’t notice anything except that the movie is brighter . The motion is smoother . And the colors are as vivacious as ever in a QNED panel . That all occur down to the central processor that ’s powering all the things .
And that ’s not even the really cool stuff and nonsense . LG says the new AI processing does n’t just look at a scene in its integrality — it can tell the difference between faces , objects , and backgrounds within a shot , thus “ enriching the texture and fine point to present image with unparalleled naive realism . ” It does all that with “ active Tone Mapping Pro , ” to analyze unlike division in real fourth dimension . But you ’re still in the grummet , too , with “ Personalized Picture Wizard , ” so you could customize things how you desire to watch them . ( Presumably , the option to not do any of this will also be available . )
“ The LG 2024 LG QNED television set lineup takes the viewing experience to a whole new degree with an forward-looking processor that enables spectacular audio - visual experience across various filmdom size while also furnish a personalized drug user experience tailor to each somebody ’s unparalleled life style and preferences , ” Baik Seon - pill , head of the LG Home Entertainment Company ’s Product Planning Division , said in a jam releaseannouncing the novel lineup . “ We remain attached to delivering an unparalleled customer experience , draw upon our X - long expertness with webOS . ”
And that ’s just on the visual side of thing . The AI sweetening lead to audio recording , too . “ AI Sound Pro ” is a matter , virtually creating a 9.1.2 surroundings sound experience from the TVs ’ built - in speakers . And if you ’re rocking an LG soundbar system , WOW Orchestra will leverage the telecasting ’s built - in speakers for what LG calls “ a hypnotize 3D sound experience . ”
It ’s all a tax return to strain for LG , which was more quiet on the QNED front in 2023 . But 2024 will see a total of seven QNED options across four ranges ( the QNED99 T at 8 kB and with an upgraded Alpha 9 process0r , the 4 K QNED90 T with mini - lead , the QNED85 T LCD , a nd the low - close QNED80 T ) , at size of 43 , 50 , 55 , 65 , 75 , 86 , and a thumping 98 inches , which LG aver “ will fully immerse viewers with its order of magnitude . ”
That magnitude mean the screen literal estate , though . lean is once again in , with 29 millimeter profiles the average in at least a couple of the models . And wall climb on remains an option across the board .
On the software side of thing , LG has taken a Sir Frederick Handley Page out of the smartphone playbook ( never mind that LG no longer makes phones ) and is propose five years of update . And that ’s not just for new telecasting — it ’ll apply to the QNED Mini leave 8 green model unloose in 2022 , as well . ( That ’s the QNED99 and QNED95 series TVs . )
Again , more details are to come . And we ’ll get our first literal look at the new QNED fare atCES 2024 .
