At CES 2024 in Las Vegas, LG unveiled what they are claiming is the world’s first wireless transparent OLED TV. The LG SIGNATURE OLED T combines a transparent 4K OLED screen and LG’s wireless video and audio transmission technology to create a very unique display.

The OLED T is said to feature class-leading picture quality and performance and it is powered by the new α (Alpha) 11 AI processor.
The 77-inch screen size, OLED T and its innovative transparent display are touted as being able to seamlessly harmonizes within its environment. The screen is practically invisible when turned off, enabling it to blend into the environment and frees users from the long-standing problem of what to do with the ‘big black screen.’ The TV’s see-through screen also helps to make a space feel larger.
The whole concept behind the OLED T is that you no longer need to place your TV against a wall. Instead, users can place the OLED T in the middle of the room to become a divider or prop it against the window without blocking the view outside. The included Zero Connect Box, which leverages LG’s wireless transmission technology to send 4K images and sound to the OLED T, also enables users to place their TV anywhere, regardless of where the electrical outlets are located in the room. With no cables between the Zero Connect Box and the OLED T, users can enjoy a clean and cable-free viewing environment.
The OLED T comes in stand-alone, against-the-wall or wall-mount options. Customers can further customize by adding standing or floating shelves on either or both sides of the screen.
What is also interesting is that the TV can be set to two different viewing experiences: transparent and opaque. The OLED T can become a transparent digital canvas for showcasing artwork, videos or photos with the Always-On-Display (AOD) feature. Content displayed on the transparent screen appears to float in air.
Another option is the T-Bar feature that offers a helpful info-ticker running along the lower part of the screen. The T-Bar displays news alerts, weather updates or the title of songs being played while the rest of the screen presents a clear, unobstructed view of the space behind it.
For viewing in picture perfect OLED, simply click a button to raise the contrast screen. In this way, users can instantly switch to take full advantage of LG OLED’s enhanced picture quality through the new α (Alpha) 11 AI processor with 4-times greater AI performance. This is claimed to provide a 70 percent improvement in graphic performance and a 30 percent faster processing speed compared to its predecessor.
The LG SIGNATURE OLED T will be on show during CES 2024 from January 9-12 at the company’s booth (#16008, Las Vegas Convention Center). LG’s transparent OLED was a winner of five CES 2024 Innovation Awards, including a Best of Innovation honor.
