LG Electronics Australia (LG) today announces local availability of its 2025 Media Entertainment Solutions lineup, bringing a new era of immersive entertainment to Australian homes.

That’s why we’re committed to offering an entertainment range that not only delivers the outstanding picture quality and innovative features but also provides seamless access to the content Australians love.

We’re proud to continue our OLED leadership and offer a smart TV platform in webOS that is intuitive, easy to use and available on more products – from TVs and portable screens to monitors and projectors. And this year, we’re taking that experience even further with integrated AI capabilities, from picture processing to content recommendations. With our 2025 TV lineup, we’re making premium entertainment more accessible than ever, ensuring that every Australian can enjoy the best possible viewing experience, tailored to their needs and preferences.”
