LG Signature OLED T: LG's first wireless TV to go on sale

LG Electronics is finally going to sell its first wireless transparent OLED TV. The LG Signature OLED T is a 77-inch screen that can blend into the environment when turned off or work as some 3D-like display with art being shown on the screen. You can place it anywhere, thanks to its wireless features that eliminate the need for cables and wires.

LG is not the only company that is experimenting with see-through screens. Its rival Samsung also showcased its micro LED technology that enables transparent screens at this year’s CES, too. However, Samsung’s screens are still in the prototype stage and haven't been commercialized yet.

The OLED T comes with a Zero Connect Box that uses LG’s wireless transmission technology to send 4K images and sound to the device. This means you can connect your devices without any cables. The wireless set-up also gives you the freedom to customize your display by adding shelves or other accessories to the sides of the screen. You can enjoy your favourite Netflix shows on a transparent screen that looks like it is floating in the air.

If you want to see what's on the screen better, there's a black roll-up screen that will turn it into a regular-looking television. It won't have as crisp a quality as your typical OLED television. But that isn't the first consideration for a TV like this.

The LG Signature OLED T runs on an (Alpha) 11 AI processor, promising four times greater AI performance than a previous model. LG says the result is a 70 percent improvement in graphic performance and a 30 percent increase in processing speed.

It has an always-on display that can display artwork, videos, and photos. Unlike Samsung’s Frame TV, which has a similar feature, the OLED T’s display does not block the view of the surrounding space. You can see through the screen and enjoy the scenery behind it. It also has a T-Bar feature that shows news alerts, weather updates, and song titles on the lower part of the screen.

The LG Signature OLED T is expected to launch later this year for an undisclosed price. However, for tech like this, you can expect to drop some serious cash on this one.
