LG has revealed its 2024 OLED TV line-up, including its fully wireless flagship model, the LG M4, as well as the latest versions of its standard OLED line, G4, C4 and B4. Although there is no officially confirmed price or release date, we expect the launch to be around March/April, as it has been in recent years. All models will be on display at CES 2024 from January 9 to 12 in Las Vegas, so we’ll see them in person soon.
The LG M4, LG’s flagship OLED TV in 2024, will feature a Zero Connect box, eliminating the need for all cables to the TV not only for the picture, but also for audio. The WOWCAST wireless capabilities of the new built-in Alpha 11 AI processor can stream Dolby Atmos wireless lossless to compatible LG sound bars. The M4 also comes in a 65-inch size for the first time.
The successor to one of the best OLED TVs available, the LG G3, the LG G4 also features the Alpha 11 AI processor, with similar brightness levels to the M4 and the same WOWCAST wireless audio capabilities. The G4 will also feature the same micro lens array (MLA) technology introduced in the LG G3 last year, but will now include this technology in the larger 83-inch model (the 83-inch G3 did not include MLA). Another welcome addition is the inclusion of a stand in some countries, rather than just coming with a wall mount (as the LG G3 and G3 did), although LG is yet to confirm which regions it will be available in.
The LG C4, the mid-range OLED in the 2024 lineup and successor to the LG C3, will feature a new-generation LG Alpha 9 AI processor and promises improved brightness in all sizes compared to the C3, as well as game upgrades . Finally, the LG B4, the basic LG OLED 2024 (no A series has been announced, just like in 2023), will feature a new generation Alpha 8 AI processor, which not only promises similar performance to the old Alpha 9 processor of the LG C3, but it also has four HDMI 2.1 ports for the first time, and It finally arrives in a 48-inch size.
The M4, G4 and C4 will now support a refresh rate of up to 144Hz, which is a first for LG OLEDs. If you are looking for more detailed information and specifications about each model, in addition to the main features, read below.
LG’s 2024 OLED TV lineup
LG M4
The LG M4 appears to be one of the most sophisticated OLED TVs on the planet, thanks to its wireless capabilities. Thanks to Zero Connect Box, the LG M4 does not require any cables directly for image or audio. It connects to the external box, which transmits high-quality 4K 144Hz images to the screen. It also comes equipped with LG’s latest chip, the Alpha 11 AI processor, as well as ‘brightness booster max’ technology (not included in the 97-inch size), allowing for 150% higher brightness levels compared to the LG B series in small size. HDR highlighted areas. The Alpha 11 processor also enables not only wireless audio streaming via WOWCAST to compatible LG soundbars, but also Dolby Atmos wireless streaming.
The Alpha 11 AI processor also promises more AI Picture Pro features compared to last year’s chips, with greater levels of detail in its upscaling and new modes including ‘Director Tone’, which demonstrates an image “as the director intended.” according to LG. Its AI Sound Pro features will also create the sensation of up to 11.1.2 virtual channels of sound from its built-in speakers, or at least it will try to.
The M4 will also feature a smaller 65-inch model for the first time, as well as the 77-, 83-, and 97-inch models introduced with the LG M3. However, it won’t come with a stand now: it’s designed for wall mounting. The M4 will also feature up to 4K 144Hz refresh rate, AMD FreeSync and Nvidia GSync capabilities, as well as gaming.
LG G4
With almost the same specifications as the LG M4, the LG G4 will be available in sizes ranging from 55 to 97 inches, and this year will see the introduction of MLA technology in the larger 83-inch model, something that the 83-inch G3 inches I didn’t have. (The 97-inch model won’t have it yet.) The Alpha 11 AI processor (the same in the M4) in the G4 will feature the same peak brightness boost technology as the M4, to produce brighter images than the G3 at its peak. highlights, but it probably won’t be much brighter than the G3 in most situations, based on what we understand so far.
Another interesting (and welcome) addition to the G4 is the inclusion of a kickstand in the box. One of the main drawbacks of the LG G3 was its expensive optional stand, so it’s nice to see a stand included for those not looking to mount it to the wall. As noted above, we’re still not sure which regions it will be available in. The G4 will also feature the same enhanced gaming features as the M4, including the 144Hz refresh rate (up to the 83-inch size).
LG C4
The LG C4 will feature a new generation of the Alpha 9 AI processor, which promises brighter images than seen in previous models like the LG C3, and LG says this will apply to all sizes, including the small 42 and 48 models. inches. – these models didn’t get a brightness boost the last time LG introduced one in the C series. The LG C4 also promises the same improved gaming features as the M4 and G4, including the 144Hz refresh rate.
The C4 will once again be available in a wide variety of sizes, from 42 to 83 inches. The new Alpha 9 chip will include the same lossless wireless audio streaming to LG soundbars as the Alpha 11 in the G4 and M4.
LG B4
The LG B4, the entry-level OLED of the 2024 lineup, will feature a new Alpha 8 AI processor, promising even better performance (LG says its AI image enhancement capabilities are in line with the Alpha 9 Gen 7 chip used in the LG C3 last year).
One of the drawbacks of its predecessor, the LG B3, was that it only featured two HDMI 2.1 ports, but fortunately LG has fixed that and the B4 comes with four HDMI 2.1 ports. It also comes in a new smaller 48-inch size, which will make it even cheaper; We expect it to be one of the best gaming TVs, without a doubt.
