LG OLED55G5

The LG OLED55G5 pushes the boundaries of picture quality with its new Tandem RGB OLED panel, Alpha 11 AI Gen2 processor, and optimized 165 Hz refresh rate. Designed to be hung on the wall like a true work of art, it combines minimalist aesthetics with exceptional performance to satisfy both demanding movie lovers and passionate gamers. Its ability to reproduce perfect blacks, vibrant colors, and impressive brightness peaks makes it a benchmark in its category.

A Revolutionized Display Technology

The OLED55G5 marks a turning point in the evolution of OLED panels by abandoning the MLA (Micro Lens Array) filter in favor of a brand-new architecture called “Primary RGB Tandem.” This innovation is based on four independent layers of electroluminescent diodes—one red, one green, and two blue—unlike the previous architecture, which used a red/green/yellow layer between two blue layers. This optimized structure achieves significantly higher brightness levels than the previous generation thanks to Brightness Booster Ultimate technology.

The self-emissive pixels offer total light control, pixel by pixel, ensuring absolute blacks and infinite contrast. The Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro algorithm precisely refines details in both shadow and highlight areas, delivering a natural and realistic image. This picture quality is validated by certifications such as “Perfect Black” and “Realistic Colors,” attesting to the TV’s visual excellence.

The 10-bit Ultra HD 4K panel has a native refresh rate of 120 Hz, optimized up to 165 Hz to ensure exemplary smoothness, whether for sports, action movies, or video games. This advanced display technology allows the G5 to maintain its image quality even in very bright environments—a considerable advantage over standard OLEDs.

Artificial Intelligence Serving the Image

At the heart of the LG OLED55G5 is its new Alpha 11 AI 4K Gen2 processor, significantly more powerful than its predecessor. This chip can analyze and optimize the image using 16 billion data points and the sound using 8.4 million data points, thanks to its dedicated AI engines. This sophisticated processing delivers remarkable results in upscaling non-4K content, noise reduction, and detail enhancement.

One of the major innovations is AI Director Processing, which analyzes video content in real time to reproduce the image while respecting the director’s visual intent. For movie lovers, Filmmaker Mode automatically adjusts picture settings to faithfully reproduce the original artistic vision, with a new Filmmaker Ambient Light function that adapts the rendering to ambient brightness.

AI Picture Pro and AI Brightness Control technologies continuously optimize visual quality by adapting to the displayed content and the room’s lighting conditions. This built-in intelligence ensures you always get the best possible image without constant manual adjustments.

The Ideal Gaming Companion

The LG OLED55G5 stands out as a top choice for gamers thanks to a suite of features specifically designed for gaming. HDMI 2.1 compatibility provides support for VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), ensuring a smooth and responsive gaming experience. NVIDIA G-Sync certification and AMD FreeSync technology eliminate screen tearing and stuttering up to 165 Hz (144 Hz for the 48-inch model).

The ultra-fast 0.1 ms response time ensures optimal responsiveness, essential for competitive gaming where every millisecond counts. Dolby Vision Gaming support at 4K 120 Hz delivers outstanding HDR image quality in compatible games, for greater depth and realism.

Game Optimizer mode brings together all gaming-related settings in a dedicated interface, allowing you to finely adjust each parameter according to your preferences and game type. Whether you’re on a next-gen console or a high-end PC, the G5 adapts perfectly to your needs with its four fully 4K 120 Hz compatible HDMI 2.1 ports.

A Complete Smart Ecosystem

The OLED55G5 runs on webOS 25, the latest version of LG’s operating system, with updates guaranteed for the next four years. This modernized interface offers smooth and intuitive navigation, enhanced by new AI features like AI Concierge, which suggests personalized content based on your viewing habits.

The AI Magic Remote has been redesigned with a more refined look while retaining its practical navigation wheel. It provides quick access to the integrated smart home dashboard, compatible with the latest Matter standard for simplified integration with various connected home ecosystems.

Compatibility with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and LG ThinQ allows you to control the TV by voice and interact with other connected devices. AI Voice ID features recognize users by their voice to offer personalized recommendations.

On the entertainment side, the G5 gives access to all major streaming platforms as well as cloud gaming services like GeForce Now, Shadow, Blacknut, and Utomik Cloud. Extended connectivity with AirPlay 2 and Google Cast makes it easy to share content from smartphones, tablets, and computers.

An Audio Experience to Match

To complement its exceptional picture quality, the LG OLED55G5 features a 4.2-channel audio system delivering a total power of 60 watts. Compatible with Dolby Atmos, it offers three-dimensional sound spatialization for a more immersive experience with movie and series soundtracks.

Alpha 11 AI Sound Pro technology analyzes and adapts the sound in real time according to the content, while the Clear Voice Pro function improves dialogue intelligibility. AI Acoustic Tuning optimizes audio settings based on your room’s acoustics for optimal sound performance in any environment.

The WOW Orchestra function enables perfect synergy with compatible LG soundbars, combining the TV’s speakers and the soundbar to create a wider and more immersive sound field. For users seeking a wireless setup, WiSA compatibility allows you to connect wireless speakers in up to a 2.1-channel configuration.

Design and Integration

The LG OLED55G5 adopts a minimalist design intended for wall mounting, like a piece of contemporary art. Its ultra-thin profile of just 27.2 mm and elegant black and gray finish allow it to blend harmoniously into any interior. The included wall mount makes installation easy, while a minimalist stand is available as an option for those who prefer to place their TV on furniture.

With dimensions of 1222 x 703 mm without the stand, the G5 offers a balanced visual presence—neither too imposing nor too discreet. Its thoughtful design cleverly conceals the connectors to preserve the purity of the lines and the clean aesthetic of the whole.
