New LG 4K TVs Announced At CES 2016
They’re also all designated HDR Plus, which essentially means they can show 4K HDR content in a way that’s more realistic than a standard HDR screen.
For devices, the UHD Alliance said a “Premium” logo can only be borne by a screen that displays an image resolution of at least 3840 by 2160 pixels, with a display reproduction capable of 90 percent of P3 colours and a 10-bit signal for colour depth. The two IPS TV models have the ability to render more than one billion colors. However, what one is expected to pay for the 4 K model is still not known, but don’t be surprised if there is one that fits your budget looking at the rapidly falling rates. They are extremely thin, with the UH9500 boasting a 6.6mm screen depth, and have some interesting new audio features.
LGs’ flagship, UH9550, is highlighted with a shell thickness of only 6.6 mm, the screen frame being nearly invisible. And the UH9500 is second to none when it comes to sound. LG’s Magic Sound Tuning is designed to create a customized sound profile for your room.
The line up will have models that display the ULTRA Slim design.
“We’re confident our 2016 HDR-enabled SUPER UHD TV will generate much excitement not only in the industry, but also with consumers in general”, said Brian Kwon, President and CEO at LG’s Home Entertainment Company in a press statement.

To help guide buyers through the maze of new standards, the Ultra HD Alliance has announced new specifications for 4K Ultra HD Premium technology, and manufacturers are already rushing in to meet or beat the new standards. Peak luminance on LG’s EF9500/ EG9600 and Panasonic’s CZ950 OLED televisions was capped at 450 cd/m; whereas even the best-performing edge-lit LED LCDs past year (such as Samsung’s JS9000 and JS8500) topped out at 600 cd/m. Only the Sony X94C and perhaps the Samsung JS9500 – both featuring full-array local dimming (FALD) backlight technology – stand a chance of receiving the “Ultra HD Premium” certification retroactively.

About LG Electronics CanadaThe LG brand was established in 1995.
In the past, the company has shown off 105-inch 21:9 Cinemawide 5K displays, but with a $99,999 price tag and very little content produced in that aspect ratio, they continue to remain a very niche product.
