In many ways it appears to me LG have both simplified and created a clear deliniation in their product lineup with the announcement today of their 2025 TV range and while the top end is full of innovation and hefty price tags there’s supreme value in their entry level 4K TV.
First out of the blocks for the TV brands in 2025, LG has set a benchmark for the rest to match or better with their prices and range, LG’s features 40 new models across LED and OLED TVs including a new 100 inch QNED, their Wireless wall-mounted OLED and a tease for the Transparent TV coming later this year.
Key to the entire range is the WebOS operating system which enables a modern app based and streaming based use case, something LG’s Tony Brown suggests is critical based on how our TV usage is changing “At LG we understand that the way Australians are consuming entertainment is evolving. While traditional viewing habits are shifting, the demand for premium entertainment experiences remains strong. That’s why we’re committed to offering an entertainment range that not only delivers the outstanding picture quality and innovative features but also provides seamless access to the content Australians love.”
“We’re proud to continue our OLED leadership and offer a smart TV platform in webOS that is intuitive, easy to use and available on more products – from TVs and portable screens to monitors and projectors. And this year, we’re taking that experience even further with integrated AI capabilities, from picture processing to content recommendations. With our 2025 TV lineup, we’re making premium entertainment more accessible than ever, ensuring that every Australian can enjoy the best possible viewing experience, tailored to their needs and preferences.”
If we split the range into LED and OLED, the LED range has a Nanocell TV as it’s entry level – providing a 4K picture with advanced colour capabilities at wider viewing angles at the same entry price as last year – effectively a better brighter picture and more advanced technology kicks off the range, but without affecting the price.
LG NanoCell TV’s will come in 43 inch, 50, 55, 65, 75 and 86 inch sizes, priced from $749 up to $2,899.
Take the quality up a notch, add more brightness and LG’s QNED technology in the same sizes and you’re paying between $1,099 and $3,699.
The real quality though comes in the MiniLED range, which is easy to spot in 2025 with label QNED evo – the evo previously used on OLED panels with the next generation technology, now signifying a QNED with MiniLED lighting, frankly the next best thing to OLED.
There are five sizes in the TV that is probably the sweet spot in the range, the QNED86A – in 55, 65, 75, 86 and 100 inches – priced from $1,799 to $8,999.
For the QNED93A – you’re getting more brightness and colour range, in 65, 75 and 85, from $2,799 to $4,999.
Not since I’ve been following TVs do I think an OLED from LG has come out with an RRP under $2,000 and this year, they’ve done it. The 48 inch B5 series OLED will be $1,999, while the entry level C5 at 42 inches is $2,199 – aimed at gamers no doubt.
LG’s massive 83 inch C5 will be $7,999, while the stunning “G5” TV is a real leap forward from the 2024 model with a noticable enhanced brightness thanks to a new layering system, that one goes up to 97 inches for a shade under $38,000. The 55 inch G5 is $4,199.
This year’s WebOS is now called WebOS 25 so we can track the versions easier, and these TVs will get updates for the next 5 years too.
All underpinned by a subtle, yet useful AI integration which LG calls “Affectionate Intelligence” offering simple voice commands to use system menus, or even do web searches that appear as pop up windows on the screen.
Taking the G series OLED to the next level is the availability of the LG M5 which uses the same panel as the G5, supremely enhanced from the 2024 G Series, but in the M it’s a wireless solution. So the TV just needs power and the HDMI and Antenna inputs are in a box which can be on the other side of the room if that works for you.
The mother of them all in 2025 will be the OLED T – Transparent TV. At 77 inches this is a masterpeice of design and also technology. We’ve shown it to you at CES, and if you win Lotto, perhaps you’ll be keen to pay the $80,000 price tag in the second half of this year when it’s available.
It’s a comprehensive range, with something for every budget.
We’ll get in front of some TVs soon to give you our thoughts on this new range from LG!
