LG OLED97M3PUA 97" vs TCL 98QM851G 98"

LG has introduced a 97-inch wireless OLED TV at CES 2023. The TV does not have any video inputs and instead uses a wireless transmitter box to send the image from a Blu-ray player. The transmitter box can be located up to 30 feet away from the TV and uses similar technology to standard Wi-Fi routers. The TV comes with three HDMI inputs and other typical ports. LG will also release the wireless OLED TV in 83- and 77-inch sizes. Pricing is yet to be determined, but LG's standard wired 97-inch OLED TV costs $25,000.

The LG M3 Wireless OLED TV offers gorgeous OLED picture quality, low-latency wireless for gaming, a solid wireless signal connection, easy setup, and good sound. The wireless system works well, with a range of up to 30 feet on line of sight. The Zero Connect box needs true line of sight for optimal performance. The TV's picture quality and latency are indistinguishable from an HDMI cable connection. The only restriction is that the ARC connection is on the Zero Connect box, so if you want to use your own audio system, it needs to be within an HDMI cable's distance from the box. Overall, the LG M3 is a cool TV with the potential to shape the future.

Summary

LG has unveiled its M3 wireless OLED TV at CES 2023. The TV receives content wirelessly from a separate transmitter box using LG's proprietary Zero Connect technology. The box can be placed up to 30 feet away from the TV and automatically adjusts its wireless transmission path to minimize disruptions. The M3 TV itself has a minimalist design with a thin frame and integrated wall-mount bracket. It features a 4K OLED panel, Alpha 9 processor, and supports HDR formats, Dolby Atmos, and gaming features. The M3 is expected to be available in 77-inch, 83-inch, and 97-inch sizes in the second half of 2023, with pricing estimated to be between £4500 and £12,000.
