LG’s 2022 OLED televisions start shipping this spring

Add as a preferred source on Google

LG today announced pricing and availability for its 2022 line of OLED televisions. That includes four series of 4K sets (we’ve got info for three of them, anyway), as well two 8K models.

The launches are staggered a bit, and there are plenty of indecipherable model names (they really reelect the size and series) tucked into each group. Here’s how everything breaks down:

 

LG G2 ‘Gallery Edition’

This is the top of the 2022 LG OLED line, and also one half of the “EVO” variety — which ramps up the brightness more than the 2021 models — and the pricing reflects that. They’ll come with LG’s Gallery Series wall mounts in the box, but there’s an improved stand system available separately if wall-mounting just isn’t your thing. Also be on the lookout for thinner bezels, a slimmer profile, less weight, and improved packaging.

Sizes range from 55 to a whopping 97 inches, and unfortunately, we still don’t yet have the details on that 97-inch beast of a TV.

LG C2 Series

The best-selling C2 range runs from 42 inches to 83 inches and also is part of the “EVO” lineup. It’s still not light on the wallet, but you get an excellent television by just about any measure. Look for the 42-incher to be a favorite among gamers, thanks to full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 ports, 4K resolution at 120Hz, and support for Nvidia G-Sync and Freesync Premium.

 

LG B2 Series

Three sets here. They don’t tend to get the headlines that the Gallery Editions and C2 series get, but they’re still solid TVs in their own rights.

LG A2 Series

LG hasn’t yet released pricing or availability for these two models, but we’ll update once it does.

  • 65 inches (OLED65A2PUA): TBA
  • 55 inches (OLED55A2PUA): TBA

2022 LG OLED 8K models

LG has two models of 8K televisions coming in 2022. Whether you actually need to worry about 8K just yet remains up for debate. On the other hand, if you can actually afford an 8K OLED television, you probably don’t care that there’s not really any native 8K content out there — at least not in the traditional sense of movies and television, anyway. It’s great for showing off, though.

  • 88 inches (OLED88Z2PUA): $25,000, available April 2022
  • 77 inches (OLED778Z2PUA): $13,000, available April 2022

Samsung’s new clip-on earbuds are coming to the US, and they’re not cheap
You can listen to music without blocking out the world around you, but Samsung is charging a premium for the convenience.
Samsung Galaxy Buds On earbuds

Earlier this month, Samsung unveiled its first clip-on earbuds called the Galaxy Buds On. Initially, it announced pricing and availability details only for Korea, but now the brand has revealed them for the US market as well. As per Samsung, the Galaxy Buds On will cost $229 and will be available to buy in early November. Only one color option, Black, will be available initially.

That is quite a steep price, considering the flagship Galaxy Buds 4 Pro go for $250. The Buds On also has no active noise cancellation, weaker bass response, and lower dust and water resistance. All that said, the use case is fundamentally different. While you might choose the Buds 4 Pro as the best daily drivers for your Galaxy smartphone, the Buds On keep your ear canals open, letting you listen to music while staying aware of traffic, conversations, and everything else happening around you. I can see the appeal for people who find traditional earbuds uncomfortable, or those who regularly listen to music while running or commuting.

Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.
