LG’s 2024 TV Collection: Advancing the Future of Television
LG, a titan in the realm of consumer electronics, has once again raised the bar with its 2024 TV collection. First introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January, the collection comprises several models, each tailored to meet diverse consumer tastes and requirements.
The Fresh Line-up
The collection features the LG B4, LG C4, LG G4 and the entirely wireless flagship model, the LG M4. Each model is distinct, boasting a variety of features that differentiate it from the rest.
LG B4
The 2024 LG B4 TV is a part of LG’s new OLED TV range, which includes a 48" model for the first time, perfect for those who want a cinematic experience in a compact space. It features 4K OLED panels, offering four times the detail of Full HD and providing deeper blacks and higher contrast ratios compared to traditional LED TVs. The TV has a 120Hz refresh rate, providing smoother motion, essential for fast-paced content like sports or gaming. It is equipped with the α8 AI Processor, an advanced processor that uses artificial intelligence to optimize picture and sound quality in real-time, providing a more immersive viewing experience.
The TV runs on the new webOS 24, a user-friendly operating system that offers a wide range of apps and features, including voice control and smart home integration. The TV is fitted with four HDMI 2.1 ports, which support higher video resolutions and refresh rates, making it future-proof for next-gen gaming consoles and other high-end AV equipment. The α8 AI Processor chip includes AI Customisation, AI Acoustic Tuning, Brightness Control, AI Picture Pro, and AI Sound Pro. These features use AI to enhance the viewing and listening experience, adjusting settings based on the content and the viewer’s preferences. The sound system detects the layout of your room and where you’re sitting to create a dome of sound around you, perfectly tuned to your room’s unique acoustics. Scenes burst boldly into life where the darkest shadows and brightest lights intertwine. 100% colour volume boosts rich hues, while 100% colour fidelity preserves shades without distortion.

Improvements Over the 2023 Models
The 2024 models boast several improvements over their 2023 counterparts. The B4 model appears to have higher brightness levels than the B3. It is equipped with LG’s latest Alpha 8 AI processor, an upgrade from last year’s Alpha 7 processor. LG claims the Alpha 8 AI matches the performance of the one found in last year’s C3 model, suggesting that the LG B4 could reach higher peak brightness levels around 800 nits (peak brightness on the B3 was 649 nits).
The G4 model appears to offer deeper contrast levels and even higher brightness than the G3. The impressive implementation of MLA into the G3 is set to be enhanced by LG Display’s Meta Technology 2.0 upgrades for the G4, along with a new Alpha 11 processor.
While the C4 model doesn’t have the added innovation some might have been hoping for (such as that trickle-down 2023 MLA tech at least), there are still welcome improvements across the wider OLED and QNED ranges, including the annual webOS updates.
