The LG Gallery TV AI is a &#8220;lifestyle&#8221; TV that features a special gallery mode, much like Samsung&#8217;s popular &#8220;The Frame.&#8221; When you&#8217;re not watching a show, it can display famous paintings or your own photos, turning a black screen into a beautiful picture frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, there&#8217;s a big surprise with this new TV: it doesn&#8217;t use an OLED panel. LG is known for producing the best OLED screens in the world, but for this model, they chose mini-LED technology instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main advantage of mini-LED is that it&#8217;s less likely to suffer from &#8220;burn-in&#8221; if you leave the same image on the screen for a long time. However, LG&#8217;s mini-LED TVs have historically not been as impressive as their OLED TVs. In fact, most expert reviews don&#8217;t even include LG&#8217;s mini-LED TVs in their &#8220;best of&#8221; lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is somewhat disappointing, as the rest of the TV looks great. It comes in 55 and 65-inch sizes and features an anti-glare screen that automatically adjusts the picture based on ambient light. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main selling point is the LG Gallery+ service, which provides access to over 4,500 works of art. You can also use your own photos or even use a generative AI to create a few new images each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The big catch is that the full art collection requires a monthly subscription. The free version provides about 100 images and doesn&#8217;t include the AI feature. We don&#8217;t yet know whether the Gallery TV will include a free trial of the full service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LG hasn&#8217;t announced the price yet, but they will need to be competitive. They are competing against strong rivals such as Samsung and TCL, which have been in the &#8220;art TV&#8221; market for some time. We will have to wait until CES next week to see whether this new mini-LED model stands out in a crowded field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Points LG just announced a new TV that is designed to look like a piece of art hanging on your wall.
