TL;DR
LG introduced the Gallery TV at CES, its entry into the framed 'art' TV category. The mini‑LED set uses LG's Gallery+ service for display visuals, comes with a white frame (wood option sold separately), and will be offered in 55- and 65‑inch sizes; pricing and some technical details remain undisclosed.
What happened
At CES, LG revealed the Gallery TV, its new product aimed at the growing market for televisions that double as framed artwork. The set leans on LG's Gallery+ platform, launched earlier in the year, which supplies thousands of display visuals spanning art, cinematic images and gaming scenes; the service offers a limited free tier but requires a subscription for full access. The Gallery TV is built on mini‑LED technology and features a specialized screen treatment LG says reduces glare and reflections to create a more art-like appearance. LG cautioned that this model should not be confused with its G Series OLEDs; the company pointed to mini‑LED’s advantage for long static images because OLED can risk image retention. The TV ships with a white frame by default and offers an optional wood-colored frame, and it will be available in 55- and 65‑inch sizes. LG has not disclosed pricing or some technical specifics such as the backlight configuration.
Why it matters
- Adds a major TV maker to the framed 'art' TV segment, increasing competition with Samsung's The Frame and recent entries from TCL and Hisense.
- Uses mini‑LED hardware and an anti‑glare screen treatment to enable long-duration static image display without the burn-in concerns associated with OLED.
- Ties hardware to LG’s Gallery+ content ecosystem, signaling a combined device-and-service approach to the lifestyle TV market.
