Here’s what LG’s 2020 TVs will cost when they go on sale later this year

LG’s 2020 TV lineup is here, as well as a slew of new technologies … well, almost. The company announced earlier this month that it will start releasing its roster of new models in both South Korea and the United States. Europe and other regions will soon follow, LG said.

Among these new OLED models are the GX Gallery Series, LG’s OLED ZX 8K models, and its CX and BX 4K models. Models supporting 8K television will feature an Alpha 9 Gen 3 A.I. Processor, the company’s third-generation processor, which is designed to “heighten viewers’ sense of immersion.” Other new features pertain to movies, sports, gaming and other types of content — and ATSC 3.0, or NextGen TV, a new standard for over-the-air television supporting 4K streams that will roll out across the country later this year.

The company also said the 2020 line of TVs will feature the latest HDMI specifications, and its 8K models will be able to play native 8K content from both HDMI and USB digital inputs.

Gallery GX Series

  • 55-inch arriving in April for $2,500
  • 65-inch arriving in April for $3,500
  • 77-inch arriving in April for $6,000

The GX Series is LG’s answer to  Samsung’s The Frame — with a unique twist. The GX Series is designed to mount flush to a wall just like a piece of art, and it utilizes OLED panel technology that doesn’t require a backlight to make that happen. With that tech, the 65-inch model is less than an inch thick (0.79 inches, to be more precise) and there’s no need for an additional control box.

ZX Real 8K Series

  • 88-inch arriving in May for $30,000

In its press release on the new TVs, LG kept relatively quiet about its 8K models. The company disclosed only that these models meet the industry definition for 8K Ultra HD TVs as defined by the Consumer Technology Association, which LG says makes them among the first 8K models capable of using the CTA 8K Ultra HD logo.

CX Series

  • 48-inch arriving in June for $1,500
  • 55-inch arriving in March for $1,800
  • 65-inch arriving in April for $2,800
  • 75-inch arriving in May for $5,000

The CX Series will be one of two OLED 4K series for LG this year, alongside the BX Series. Details were once again sparse for this series, but LG did say a new size will be made available later this year in the form of a 48-inch CX OLED display.

BX Series

  • 55-inch arriving in May for $1,500
  • 65-inch arriving in May for $2,300
  • 75-inch price and delivery TBD

The BX Series is just as limited on details, with LG simply saying the BX and CX series will each be “delivering the outstanding picture quality that LG OLED is known for.”

NanoCell TV 8K Series

  • 65-inch arriving in June for $3,499
  • 75-inch arriving in May for $4,999

The Nano99 8K models won’t have OLED displays, but LG says they will carry the CTA 8K UHD logo just like the 8K versions. An interesting aspect of the Nano99 series is its processor, an Alpha 9 Gen 3 A.I. Processor 8K. It’s the same one used in LG’s 2020 OLED TVs, which LG said uses deep-learning technology to provide an ideal 8K viewing experience.

NanoCell TV 4K Series

Enter ATSC 3.0

The final interesting nugget from LG’s lineup is support for ATSC 3.0, or NextGen TV.  It’s a massive overhaul for antenna-based TV, also known as over-the-air (OTA) TV. While you wouldn’t buy a new television solely to get these higher definition signals, it’s nice to know that your investment in a fancy TV should be as future-proofed as possible. According to LG, six 2020  OLED models will wear the CTA’s NextGen TV: the 55-, 65- and 77-inch class GX Gallery Series 4K Ultra HD models, the 65-inch class WX Wallpaper 4K model and 77- and 88-inch class ZX Real 8K models.

LG 2022 OLED TVs get brighter, bigger and … smaller?
The 97-inch LG OLED EVO G2.

The wait is over. LG has taken the wraps off its 2022 OLED TV lineup, and there's plenty to be excited about.

I traveled to LG's U.S. Headquarters in New Jersey ahead of CES 2022 to get a close-up look at all of LG's new 2022 TVs. Given the predictable excitement about LG OLED TVs in general, I'll stay focused on those models in this report, but you can learn about LG's QNED mini-LED TV lineup and some improvements to its Dolby Atmos soundbars here.

LG prices its QNED mini-LED TVs starting at $2,000
LG's 2021 8K QNED mini-LED TV seen on a wall.

At CES 2021, we learned that LG planned to upgrade its LCD TV lineup with mini-LED backlight technology under the label "QNED TV," but now we finally have more details, including pricing and availability. LG's first QNED TVs will hit retail outlets in July, with an entry price of $2,000 for a 4K 65-inch model. There will also be 8K models available.

LG has always touted the picture quality benefits of its OLED TVs, and for good reason. On an OLED TV, each pixel generates its own brightness, resulting in the best black levels and contrast you can get in a TV. But with the advent of mini-LED backlighting, it's possible for LED and QLED TVs to get much closer to OLED's advantages in this area because they allow for much finer-grained control over brightness than regular LED backlights.

LG’s most affordable A1 Series OLED TVs start at $1,300

It wasn't that long ago that OLED TV prices were so high, only those with a lot of disposable income could justify owning one. Now, with the official availability of LG's new 2021 A1 Series OLED TVs, you can buy one for as little as $1,300 for the entry-level 48-inch model.

Before today, there was a lot of speculation over how much LG would charge for its A1 Series, given that Vizio's OLED TVs (which use OLED panels from LG Display) are already very aggressively priced. But we now know that Vizio gets to retain its title of most affordable 55-inch OLED TV: Its 55-inch OLED model sells for $1,300 -- the same price as a 48-inch LG A1 Series, and $300 less than the 55-inch A1 Series model.
