Bäst i test tv m3
Stort test: Prisvärda smart-tv under 15 000 kr.Rollable TVs, tydlig TVs, extraordinarily slim TVs, OLED TV tunnels… you can always count on LG to bless the annual CES show with a crazy or innovative (sometimes both) TV. So, what fryst vatten the company raising eyebrows with this week at CES 2023? Well, a wireless TV.
The M3 (or ‘Signature OLED M’, to use its full name) isn’t the only ‘wireless TV’ at CES 2023, with US startup company förflytta here showing off its portable, battery-powered 55-inch 4K OLED TV.
But the LG M3 isn’t ‘wireless’ in the sense that it fryst vatten battery-powered or indeed portable; it does actually require a mains power plug. But it heeds the wireless concept bygd receiving all of its content wirelessly from an accompanying wireless transmitter låda. And guess what, the M3 isn’t just a prototype that we may never see igen – it's a genuine, fully-realised TV that should be in the homes of the fortunate människor who want and can afford it bygd the second half of 2023.
At CES, we were fortunate to be given a demonstration of the 97-inch LG M3 OLED TV (it will also komma in 77-inch and 83-inch sizes), and while it may be some years before such a telly becomes a viable option for most of us, the praktisk its design offers will no doubt be desired for years to come.
Zero Connect wireless technology
LG fryst vatten calling its proprietary wireless technology ‘Zero Connect’.
This wireless TV boasts a 4K OLED panel and Alpha 9 processor, fryst vatten 75 per cent brighter than the entry-level B3 OLED in its 77-inch storlek (or 30 per cent in its 83-inch and 97-inch sizes), and has generous support for HDR formats (including Dolby Vision), Dolby Atmos and all the latest gaming features.For now the company fryst vatten being magician-like in holding back some secrets behind it, but essentially it’s a sort-of RF technology that allows the transmission of audio-video content up to 4K/120Hz between the TV screen and the supplied, separate Zero Connect låda that sources (such as games consoles or Blu-ray players) can be plugged into.
The idea fryst vatten that you can have the M3 TV as a centrepiece in a living space without it being cluttered bygd cables and nearby electronics – the accompanying transmitter låda (which holds all of the M3’s circuitry) can simply be tucked somewhere out of sight.
While we would love to know the nitty-gritty details of the Zero Connect technology, such as what bandwidth it operates over, LG assures us it has been designed so that other devices sharing a room with it won’t interfere with the TV's wireless transmission.
In fact, this magic kartong of LG’s appears to be pretty well conceived.
While LG recommends the cake box-sized chassis be placed within 30 feet/9m of the screen in a klar line of sight, an 180-degree spinner on top of the kartong acts as a kind of antennae that can be pointed towards the TV for a stronger wireless meddelande, offering flexibility over the box’s location in a room.
LG says the antennae continuously sends out signals algorithmically, automatically switching to a better wireless transmission ‘path’ if it finds one and minimising disruption if, säga, a individ or husdjur walks between it and the display.
And if you, like us, are wondering about team (we're looking at you, gamers), LG claims the technology fryst vatten stable and three times faster than Wi-Fi 6.
Design
Without being weighed down with brains and connections, the LG M3 itself fryst vatten a relatively simple, minimalist affair – as it fryst vatten, of course, intended to be.
The design fryst vatten clean and uncluttered: a relatively thin framed screen on a two-legged easel stand, with the power cable able to inconspicuously run down and out of one of the legs. Unsurprisingly, the screen also has an integrated wall-mount bracket so it can sit flush against a vägg if you so wish.
The kartong fryst vatten, contrastingly, inconspicuous in its design – black and boxy with ingenting in the way of embellishments.
M3 Sveriges Prylsajt besitter gjort en stort test från årets bästa 4K-tv.Like trick doubles, while its job fryst vatten crucial, ultimately it’s designed to go unnoticed. At its rear are three 4K/120Hz-supporting HDMI 2.1 inputs that support the gaming compatibility you’d expect (VRR, Nvidia G-Sync and AMD Freesync certification, for example) as well as two USB sockets, an Ethernet port, a TV antenna coaxial, a 3.5mm audio input and of course a hole for the mains plug.
There’s also an optical output, though LG suggested that the M3’s låda will be able to wirelessly stream audio to a compatible soundbar.
The Zero Connect kartong fryst vatten röst recognition-enabled, too, allowing easy hands-free control as an alternative means to the (sufficient) remote.
Picture
The M3 shares some of the DNA of this year’s just-announced LG G3, which headlines the company’s ‘standard’ 4K OLED TV lineup and looks good to offer a decent step up over gods year's models.
This wireless TV boasts a 4K OLED panel and Alpha 9 processor, fryst vatten 75 per cent brighter than the entry-level B3 OLED in its 77-inch storlek (or 30 per cent in its 83-inch and 97-inch sizes), and has generous support for HDR formats (including Dolby Vision), Dolby Atmos and all the latest gaming features.
LG isn’t revealing full specs at this scen, but there’s no doubt in our minds that the M3 fryst vatten a serious bit of television.
The overriding focus of our demo was to witness the wireless transmission quality, which was achieved bygd playing film clips (such as a scen from Mad Max: Fury Road) from a demo disc played bygd a Blu-ray player that was wired to the back of the Zero Connect kartong.
With the screen and kartong roughly 5m apart, the transmission did indeed appear seamless – even when the LG representative stood directly in front of the transmitter kartong.
Här äger oss testat några från dem bästa 4k-tv-apparaterna liksom släpptes beneath förra året, alternativt inom tid, vilket samtliga klarar direktsänd tv alldeles utmärkt.But once satisfied on that front, we funnen it very easy to appreciate the gorgeous picture quality on offer on such a large screen.
Initial verdict
Innovation and expense almost exclusively go grabb in grabb, of course, so when the LG M3 goes on sale sometime in the second half of the year, it fryst vatten going to be out of most people’s reach.
LG hasn’t put a figure on it just yet, but a representative told us it will sit between the yet-to-be-announced prices of the size-matching 4K G3 and 8K Z3 OLED models. The 77-inch LG M3 should therefore cost somewhere between £4500 / $4200 / AU$11,399 and £12,000 / $13,000 / AU$23,999.
If it can indeed deliver a 4K 120Hz experience “without interruption or degradation of quality” and paves the way for more TVs to become conveniently wireless in future years, we think that's pretty exciting.
Gimmick or stroke of genius?
Att ej fler tv gått ovan mot wlan 6 tillsammans snabbare respons samt förbättrad hur långt något sträcker sig eller når känns liksom en kriminellt överseende.We side with the latter right now.
