  • And, that’s a wrap friends, thanks for going on this journey with me. I’m sure we’ll see some examples of this stuff when the CES show floor opens tomorrow morning — we’ll let you know what kinds of wild demos LG has to show off.

  • “Personalized digital cave” is a phrase that was just used when referring to the new in-cabin car experiences LG is working on.

  • OK we’re in the wrap-up phase. To sum up — rather than show off products, the vibe is showing how they can all theoretically work together to help you out all day long. Not a bad idea, but boy does it feel far from reality. Not to mention potentially invasive of your privacy!

  • Excellent, LG has its own AI system for its LG Gram laptops. The company announced all this goodness about a week ago, and Cherlynn got to check out one of the new models at an event last night.

  • We’re moving on, and I’m not going to spend any more time trying to figure out what the hell that was. On to laptops!

  • LG’s TVs will also work with Xbox Cloud Gaming for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, too. Cool!

  • LG announced this a few years ago, but they’re rolling it out to a lot more TVs this year at more accessible prices.

From earlier:

LG kicks things off on this “press day” at CES 2025, the full day of press conferences that precede the show’s official opening on Tuesday. LG executives will take the stage at Mandalay Bay at 8AM PT on Monday and you can catch all of the announcements right here.

Last year, LG pre-empted Apple by giving “AI” a new meaning. In the company’s parlance, it’s “Affectionate Intelligence” and that remains the same this year as LG continues to lean into AI. When it comes to more tangible products, the transparent OLED-T TV the company announced in 2024 did actually go up for pre-order last year to the tune of a $60,000 price tag. That came in addition to LG’s expected appliance push and new EV chargers, but (sadly), the little home robot that LG introduced last year hasn’t been seen since.

Beyond the “AI everywhere” angle (which you’ll hear from nearly every vendor this year), expect LG to tie together its full range of product categories, from TVs to appliances and everything in between. And because LG (like Samsung) has tended to tip its hand in the days and weeks before CES, we already have some idea of what to expect.

We already know that the company’s 2025 OLED evo TV line will pair 4K resolution with gaming-friendly 165Hz refresh rate. Meanwhile, the new PF600U packs an HD projector, Bluetooth speaker and LED mood lamp into something that looks like an old-school oscillating floor fan. On the audio front, Engadget’s Billy Steele already likes the “punchy highs” he heard during a quick demo of the compact S20A soundbar. And the newest LG Signature microwave includes a built-in 27-inch touchscreen display on its door, so your kitchen will never be without a screen.

Of course, we’re hoping to see another take on transparent TVs (maybe with a more consumer-friendly price point) and maybe a real-world look at that robot, too.
