Among the first 8K TVs to brandish the consumer technology association’s 8K Ultra HD logo when they arrive, having met the industry body’s criteria for 8K TV. LG is aiming to its 8K TVs from others based on “contrast modulation” or “CM” by how many pixels are clearly distinguished from one another and how distinctly they appear to the eye. It says its 8K OLEDs deliver a CM of at least 90 percent.
LG has confirmed its 8K TVs can play 8K content over their HDMI and USB inputs, and support the streaming codecs being used by streaming platforms such as YouTube (HEVC, VP9, and AV1). Every 8K set supports 8K at 60fps for streaming and over HDMI.
With the New Year bringing in a new version of LG’s picture processor, Alpha 9 Gen 3, to be precise. This new and improve more powerful chip can be found in every LG 8K and 4K OLED TV bar. The entry-level BX Range, which uses an older Alpha 7 Gen 3 chip.
AI Picture becomes AI Picture Pro for the 2020 sets using the new Alpha 9 processor. This improved suite of picture enhancement technologies includes a claimed reduction in on-screen noise and an increase in sharpness, especially where faces are concerned.
Genre Selection is a new feature for all 2020 OLED TVs, where the TV recognizes the type of content being played, be it a movie, sports or animated piece of content and adjusts the level of processing to suit.
Two Additional TV Picture modes were announced – Dolby Vision IQ and UHD Alliance’s Filmmaker Mode and every LG supports both. Filmmaker mode turns off all edge enhancement and motion smoothing to allow content to appear in its purest state and what the filmmaker intended.
