LG officials explained that this RGB backlight architecture generates a wider spectrum of colors compared to conventional systems, which rely on white light filtered through color layers. By independently managing each RGB LED at a pixel level, the TV achieves finer control over brightness and contrast, bringing LCD displays closer to the self-emissive qualities of OLED panels.

At the heart of the system is the Alpha 11 AI Processor 4K Gen3, which powers advanced features including Micro Dimming Ultra for managing more than 1,000 dimming zones across the screen. This enables precise...
