8 million pixels.

One-in-a-million picture.

Pure colours are stunning in NanoCell TV's Real 4K. With around 8 million pixels, real 4K TV delivers picture that is noticeably sharper and more detailed than your standard HD TV. In NanoCell TV, Real 4K resolution is complemented with NanoCell technology for a 4K experience that surpasses your expectations.

Every colour crystal clear.

LG NanoCell TV utilises nanoparticles, our own distinctive Nano technology, to filter and refine colour, removing impurities from RGB wavelengths. This means that only pure, accurate colours will be displayed on screen. The result is a more vibrant, more realistic picture that will bring your content to life.

Wide viewing angle

LG NanoCell’s class-leading screen technology allows for optimal viewing at wide angles, so you’ll get an incredible viewing experience wherever you sit.
