The 97″ OLED TV comes with a Zero Connect Box capable of 4K 120Hz wireless video and audio transmission up to 10 metres and will cost £27,999.99 in the UK.

LG has launched the world’s first wireless OLED TV, the 97″ LG Signature OLED M (model 97M3). The LG Signature OLED M is completely free of cables, except for the power cord.

The 97M3 is currently available in South Korea and there are plans for a global rollout to key markets, including North America and Europe later this year.

Drawing on LG’s decade of OLED innovation, the 97″ M3 will offer the largest OLED screen in the ultra-premium TV market segment. It comes with the Zero Connect Box, the world’s first wireless solution capable of real-time video and audio transmission at 4K 120Hz, for a distance of up to 10 metres between box and screen.

The Zero Connect Box also supports a range of connectivity options including HDMI 2.1, USB, RF, LAN and Bluetooth – making it easy to connect other devices or peripherals, from gaming consoles to set-top boxes. To ensure the seamless transmission of image and sound, the box identifies the optimal transmission path and has an adjustable antenna that can be positioned according to the screen’s location.

LG’s proprietary wireless AV transmission solution is able to transmit large amounts of data at up to three times the speed of the existing Wi-Fi 6E standard. Zero Connect even supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

The LG Signature OLED M also boasts the company’s chic, ultra-modern Gallery Design, which provides a seamless, flush-to-wall mount, eliminating the need to place a cabinet or table directly near the TV.

“The technical feat of the 97M3 was made with LG’s decade-long commitment to creating new customer value as a market pioneer,” said Baik Seon-pill, leader of the LG Home Entertainment Company’s product development division. “As well as delivering the ultimate viewing experience on an ultra-large screen, our first-of-its-kind wireless LG Signature OLED M presents customers with a new level of freedom in arranging their living spaces.”

The 97-inch LG Signature OLED M will be joined by the 83″ and 77″ OLED evo M models with Zero Connect technology, each with wireless AV transmission at 4K 120Hz.

The M3 series will be available in the UK from September and UK prices are as follows:

US pricing will be announced shortly.
