April 13th, 2011 by Dave@LGUK
 
The wait is finally over. The Gadget Show Live officially kicks off today with enough new technology, gadgets and robots (a personal fave) to entertain event the most cynical technophile. One of the first stands you see upon entering the show is our LG stand, replete with our latest Home Entertainment solutions for 2011, our hero range of Cinema 3D TVs and of course our new Smart TV solutions.

Our guide to the LG Home

April 11th, 2011 by Dave@LGUK
 
I recently introduced the LG Home event that took place early last week in a rather decadent townhouse just off Tottenham Court Road in Central London. The idea behind the event was to stage an event where journalists and bloggers could come along and have a look at LG’s new range of Home Entertainment products as they would be set up ideally in the home. There was a number of the LG team on hand to conduct tours around the home and to answer any questions that visitors may have. I was lucky enough to make it to the house twice...

CES 2011: LG’s Home Entertainment range for 2011

January 5th, 2011 by Dave@LGUK
 

Today LG announced their new home entertainment range for 2011 at CES in Las Vegas, including cinema 3D TVs (passive 3D), Smart TVs and super slim OLED technology.

The new 3D TVs add to LG’s already extensive 3D range, with the LED Cinema screens (LW450U, LW550T AND LW650T) being a world first offering consumers a comfortable and accessible 3D home cinema experience. Using the same polarized glasses that are used in cinemas that don’t require any charging, the new Cinema 3D screens combine convenience and comfort with stylish design in sizes between 32” and 55”.

LG are also continuing their investment into Active 3D TV, with the announcement of further Full LED NANO 3D screens (LW770T and LW950T). Alongside these are new Plasma 3D TVs (PW450T, PZ250T, PZ550T, PZ570T and PZ950T) bolstering an already extensive 3D range, with nearly 50% of the 2011 TV range being 3D ready.

Another exciting new revelation from CES is Connected TV, named as a key focus for 2011 with 30% of next year’s TV range being fully equipped with Smart TV technology. Today’s announcement featured a redesigned Smart TV platform, including a new web-browser and app store, designed to make Internet TV even easier than ever before, especially when used with the magic motion remote control.

The new LG Smart Upgrade (ST560) allows consumers to receive LG Smart TV content on any TV with an HDMI input. The compact unit also enables wi-fi, DLNA and web browsing to ensure that all LG customers can experience the sofa-surfing experience offered by connected TV.

As if this wasn’t enough, LG are continuing their development of OLED screens. Building off the success of the 15” EL9500 released last year at CES 2010, LG presented the largest commercially available OLED screen at IFA last year measuring in at 31”.

Stephen Gater, Head of Marketing Home Entertainment, commented: “LG is the fastest growing major TV brand in 2010 and has been for the past three years, having almost doubled in size since 2008. This growth is testament to LG’s role as an industry leader and sector innovator and its continued development of cutting edge technologies to ensure that the very best products are available for consumers.”

“2011 also promises to be another exciting year for LG, with an incredibly broad range of products incorporating new screen and content technologies – the way we watch TV is changing and LG is committed to helping consumers take advantage of these spectacular developments.

CES 2010 – a recap

December 15th, 2010 by Dave@LGUK
 
With CES just around the corner we thought it was time to cast a nostalgic eye back to the last CES to have a look at some of the successes of the show and how well those successes have been integrated into the market. The LG pod at CES earlier this year was jam packed with great technology, in fact over 2 football pitches in size of technology, and saw us walk away with an impressive 15 awards at the end of the show! 3D TV: One of the buzzwords ahead of last year’s CES was 3D TV, with LG displaying a wide...

AVForums review the EL9500 – Our first OLED!

July 21st, 2010 by Dave@LGUK
 
OLED has been a buzzword for a few years now, heralded as THE technology that will revolutionize home entertainment. Aside from Sony’s 11inch offering that was launched 2 years ago (and is subsequently no longer in production) there has been little in the way of OLED available for the consumer market. Well LG’s commitment to new technologies strikes again with the arrival of the 15inch EL9500 OLED, in selected stores now! You may well be asking yourself not only is this technology any good, but is this TV any good? Well according to AVForums it’s excellent! Measuring in at a ridiculously super-slim...
