What's LG OLED?

LG has different types of OLED TVs. These OLED TVs are have deep black levels and a strong contrast. In addition to conventional OLED displays, LG also has models with OLED evo displays that provide a higher brightness. In this article, we'll explain how LG OLED works, the special features of OLED evo, and what your OLED TV is best suited for.

LG OLED technology

LG OLED TVs display images with deep black levels. An OLED display has millions of pixels that individually light up, dim, and create colors. When a pixel dims itself, that pixel is truly black as it no longer emits light. This creates absolute darkness, which is clearly noticeable in a scene of a starry sky. The sky is pitch black while the light of the stars stands out brightly, resulting in a strong contrast.

TVs with LG OLED evo technology have a higher brightness than other LG OLED TVs. The LG C4 series TVs have this technology. Thanks to the higher brightness, these TVs have an even stronger contrast. The difference between the deep black levels and bright colors becomes bigger. When you watch a nature documentary, you'll see much more vibrant and bright colors than on a regular LG OLED TV.

The LG C4 series TVs also support VRR, the variable refresh rate. This technology ensures your TV and console always display the same number of frames per second. You no longer have to worry about stuttering images this way, and you won't miss any details.
