At CES 2026, LG has made waves with the unveiling of its latest innovation, the LG OLED evo W6, which marks the return of the Wallpaper OLED series. Originally discontinued in 2020, this ultra-thin television combines aesthetics with cutting-edge technology, taking wireless TV capabilities to the forefront of modern living.
Superb Slim Design
Measuring just 9 millimeters thick, the W6 exemplifies sleek elegance, seamlessly adhering to the wall with its magnetically attached design. Although the previous model, the W7, was a mere 2.57 mm thick, this slight increase accommodates the necessary wireless receivers and cooling technology. Remarkably, the W6 maintains a thickness thinner than most smartphones, showcasing LG’s engineering prowess.
Wireless Freedom
One of the criticisms of earlier models was their reliance on bulky cables, particularly the thick ribbon cable essential for connecting to a soundbar that housed multiple entries. The LG OLED evo W6 addresses this with the revolutionary Zero Connect Box, a standalone unit that wirelessly transmits audio, video, and other peripherals to the TV from a distance of up to 10 meters. While the power supply will still require a cable, this innovation simplifies the setup significantly.
Enhanced Image Quality

LG’s new Hyper Radiant Color technology elevates the viewing experience, boasting black levels, color accuracy, and luminance up to 3.9 times greater than conventional OLED panels—all thanks to the Brightness Booster Ultra technology. This model also holds the ‘Reflection Free Premium’ certification, ensuring minimal glare, making it suitable for various lighting conditions.
Gaming Ready
The W6 caters to gamers with support for refresh rates up to 165 Hz at 4K resolution, alongside compatibility with NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD’s FreeSync Premium. Furthermore, LG claims a pixel response time of just 0.1 milliseconds, minimizing motion blur for an optimal gaming experience.
Gallery+ Feature
When not in use, the W6 can transform into a digital art display with the Gallery+ feature, showcasing over 4,500 images, from cinematic moments to personal collections or even AI-generated art. This function allows users to enjoy diverse visuals that meld with their home decor seamlessly.
Price and Availability
The LG OLED evo W6 will be available in impressive 77 and 83 inch sizes. While the exact price and launch date remain undisclosed, anticipation suggests it will cater to the ultra-premium market. For context, its predecessor was priced around $20,000, hinting at a similar trajectory for this remarkable model.
With the OLED evo W6, LG not only redefines the aesthetics of television but also challenges technological limits, aiming to enhance how we interact with multimedia in our homes.
