Its a 4k 120hz TV with HDMI 2.1 ports and all the features LG OLEDs have. Its one advantage is that it has 2000nits of brightness.

LG says the LED's will only lose 1% brightness for every 1000 hours of use.

It looks really nice, but the technology still has some ways to go - this TV is made up of several smaller Micro-LED panels, the TV is ship in pieces and needs to be put together by LG Technicians when you buy it

Also, the TV draws 1055 watts of power, so it's not exactly climate friendly



"The new LG MAGNIT introduces our state-of-the-art Micro LED display technology to private homes, allowing residential customers to experience impressive picture quality on a cinematic scale,” LG Electronics Business Solutions Company senior vice president and head of the information display business unit Paik Ki-mun says. We will continue to expand our lineup of Micro LED products for home use, complementing the new 118” model and previously released 136” model with innovative solutions that further strengthen our leadership in the premium display market.”
Equipped with the company’s AI-powered ɑ (Alpha) 9 Intelligent Processor, LG MAGNIT optimises picture quality for various types of content including movies, sports and games. The processor leverages advanced deep-learning algorithms and a visual database covering a range of content genres, enabling it to analyse and adjust image quality according to what the user is watching. With automatic genre-based picture optimisation, LG MAGNIT features AI brightness control and functions that enhance facial detail and upscale on-screen text, boosting usability and viewers’ sense of immersion.
The LG Micro LED also features the company’s own webOS smart TV platform, which offers easy navigation and access to a growing catalogue of popular streaming apps such as Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ and YouTube. Incorporating two 50W, 4.2 channel speakers and supporting an enhanced audio return channel (eARC), LG MAGNIT lets users enjoy bold, cinematic sound that helps make their favourite content lifelike. The company’s latest LG MAGNIT offers seamless connectivity, with support for Apple AirPlay 2 and Miracast to mirror the mobile screen from iOS and Android OS devices. It also comes with four HDMI 2.1 ports for convenient connection to compatible devices, has built-in Bluetooth and is WiSA Ready for wireless spatial sound. For installation flexibility, customers can choose wall-mounting or the stand-type option."

It isn't really designed to be a general consumer display to be fair. This is designed to go in businesses and penthouses, etc.

This particular model LG says is a consumer TV, not a business/commercial TV. It has all the consumer TV features, like it uses the A9 processor and WedOS 23, with disney plus, netflix etc built in, game mode, movie modes etc, built in speakers and sits on a stand and uses standard 120v/240v power source

Yeah but it is still designed for the kind of people who have a £200 million bespoke house built with a full cinema, nightclub in the basement, etc. kind of thing and use it like 3 days a year :s not general consumers.

Yeah I get that. The TV is shipped in pieces, when you buy it LG technicians come to your house to put the TV together and it takes an hour to do. And it uses 1055w power so not for an average consumer.
