This year, we are excited to offer more size options to Canadians, along with new audio products to enhance the viewing experience.”

LG OLED technology continues to revolutionize the way Canadians watch TV. With powerful imaging technologies and an improved webOS offering even more smart features and services, LG’s latest models will elevate the viewing and user experience like never before.
New LG OLED screen sizes were developed in response to customer feedback to bring smaller and larger sizes to LG’s award-winning OLED televisions.2 Now featured in both the G2 and C2 series models, LG has given consumers more access to OLED evo technology, powered by LG’s a9 Gen5 AI processor,3 which delivers higher brightness for ultra-realistic images with incredible clarity and detail.

LG QNED
Demonstrating its continuing leadership in the LCD TV space, LG’s Quantum Dot NanoCell technology offers stellar colour reproduction with Nano colour pro. Able to deliver rich, accurate colours in the brightest and darkest areas of a scene, LG QNED TV’s are capable of amazing contrast thanks to LG’s Dimming Technology. The 2022 lineup features screen sizes ranging from 50- to 86-inches making it easier for viewers to lose themselves in their favourite content. All models are certified for 100% colour consistency,5 so viewers see the same, high-quality image every time, even at different viewing angles.
Upgraded User Experience
The latest version of LG’s innovative Smart TV platform brings the user experience to life on LG’s new TVs, delivering maximum convenience and easier content discovery. WebOS 22 introduces personal profiles so users can enjoy a more customized viewing experience. Under each profile, users can set up fast access to their favourite streaming services, get tailored content recommendations based on viewing history and receive real time alerts to keep up with favourite sports teams. Logging into profiles can be performed either from the TV browser or from a smartphone with NFC Magic Tap.
NFC Magic Tap can also be used to mirror a mobile device screen to an LG TV.6 Viewers can also mirror content from one TV to another in the home using Room To Room Share, which enables the viewing of cable or satellite content on another TV via Wi-Fi without an additional set-top-box. Also new for 2022, Always Ready turns an LG TV into a media display when not in use. Easily set up in the SETTINGS menu, Always Ready is activated with a press of the power button on the LG Remote to transform the screen into a digital canvas for showcasing artwork, keeping track of time or playing music.7
What’s more, upgrading ThinQ AI will enable LG’s 2022 TVs to become true smart home hubs. In addition to providing users with effortless voice control, and compatibility with other ThinQ-powered devices, ThinQ AI now offers support for Matter, a new industry standard for a more secure and seamlessly connected smart home, which will allow LG TVs to work as a controller for connected devices.8
New Premium Sound Bar
The new lineup of audio products offers premium performance, unique and stylish designs and new sound experiences1 while ensuring accurate and immersive sound for home cinema, music and gaming. The new LG sound bar (model S95QR) boasts an output of 810W and 9.1.5 channels of pure surround sound. It is a holistic high-end audio solution with five up-firing channels that improves clarity and enlarges the soundstage for the ultimate audio experience.
No home entertainment centre is complete without the ultimate audio setup.
