Wallpaper TV: LG unveils OLED evo W6, world's thinnest smart TV at CES 2026

Last year, LG unveiled Signature OLED T, the world's first wireless and transparent television at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026 (January 6-9), Las Vegas.

This time, the South Korean technology major has showcased OLED evo W6, touted as the world's thinnest TV.

It flaunts an ultra-slim design, measuring just 9mm class thin body. The company achieved this feat by meticulous miniaturisation of essential components and a complete re-engineering of its internal architecture.

Called Wallpaper TV, it is made of premium materials and has a sturdy wall mount, which enables the TV to sit flush against the wall from edge-to-edge, like digital artwork placed on the wall.

Thanks to LG’s True Wireless technology, customers will have the freedom to place the Wallpaper TV almost anywhere in the room. All inputs are located on the Zero Connect Box — which can be positioned up to 10 meters away — for the TV’s remarkable thinness and minimal design.

With the Zero Connect Box, the TV can maintain stable wireless connectivity to stream lossless 4K video and audio without any distortion.

It boasts Hyper Radiant Color Technology and Brightness Booster Ultra; it achieves luminance levels up to 3.9 times brighter than conventional OLEDs, supports deeper black and vibrant colours.

The company has developed a new screen with the lowest reflectance among LG TVs. It is the industry-first Reflection Free with Premium certification from Intertek.

At the heart, the new TV is powered by a new α (Alpha) 11 AI Processor Gen3, featuring a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) that is 5.6 times more powerful than the predecessor. This increase in computing power enables the new Dual AI Engine. Unlike traditional processors that often sacrifice natural texture to reduce noise, the Dual AI Engine runs parallel algorithms to execute both tasks simultaneously, resulting in a balanced image that retains natural detail while eliminating over-sharpening on the TV display.

The Wallpaper TV also comes with the Gallery+ app, which offers over 4,500 visuals ranging from cinematic moments to game graphics. Additionally, customers can sync their personal photo collections and images they created with Generative AI. Enhanced by mood-matching background music, LG Gallery+ can dynamically change the digital artwork on the screen when nobody is using the TV.

The TV supports 4K 165Hz refresh rate, NVIDIA G-SYNC compatible and AMD FreeSync Premium, designed for tear-free, ultra-smooth gameplay. With a 0.1ms pixel response time and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), the displays offer fast responsiveness while playing games and also watching fast action sports such as F1 racing.

The new TV also supports Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot. With this, users can control the TV and also seek information from the internet with just voice commands.

The Wallpaper OLED evo W6 TV series will be showcased at CES 2026 this week. The price and availability details will be revealed during local launch events in the coming weeks.
