LG Electronics USA unveiled the new 118-inch LG MAGNIT 4K Micro LED residential display at the 2023 CEDIA Expo to offer luxury homeowners an attractive new home theater display option. This new model (LSAL006) provides a new screen size that is larger than the 97-inch LG SIGNATURE OLED M wireless TV and smaller than the LG MAGNIT 136-inch Micro LED display.

Priced at $237,000, the LG MAGNIT 118-inch display has a 0.6mm pixel pitch, chip-on-board LED technology and AI-enhanced processing so viewers can enjoy stunning visuals when watching their favorite content. While catering to luxury clients, this Micro LED display offers integrators streamlined installation with the display’s simple two-cabinet design that can be installed in just a fraction of the time as other modular LED displays.

The 118-inch display (about 9.8 feet measured diagonally) is based on LG’s advanced DVLED (direct-view light-emitting diode) technology pioneered for enormous commercial displays. Each of its 8 million-plus Micro LED pixels is an individual light each about the width of a human hair, enabling pure blacks and incredible contrast because it can actually turn off pixels where the picture is black.

In addition to providing superb high dynamic range capability, with more shadow detail thanks to HDR10 and HDR10 Pro compatibility, the display offers a trove of special features. LG’s Alpha 9 processor uses artificial intelligence deep learning technology to reduce picture noise and optimize color saturation and contrast based on room circumstances. It also enhances the clarity and legibility of faces and text, while an ambient light sensor adjusts brightness and tone mapping to maintain optimal appearance in varying lighting conditions.

To help luxury homeowners make the most of the LG MAGNIT’s breathtaking visuals, the display integrates AirPlay 2 and Miracast technology that allows users to wirelessly stream content from virtually any iOS, Android, macOS or Windows 10 device. With the included Art Gallery and My Digital Picture Frame features, users can easily load digital art or their own photo collages onto the display via the LG mobile app, and then display a static piece or a rotating gallery.

The 118-inch LG MAGNIT display provides a premium experience, including the webOS™ 23 interface that integrators can customize to meet specific customer preferences. Each display is pre-loaded with apps for YouTube, Disney+ and Prime Video to make setup as easy as possible. Micro LED is a relatively new technology for residential displays, delivering superb performance with exceptional brightness, years of lifespan, incredible viewing angles and a very high color gamut even in rooms with lots of windows and high ambient light. LG MAGNIT displays provide a 150-degree viewing angle and connectivity including four HDMI in ports, digital audio out, two USB in, an RS232C port and a LAN input for hardwired internet connection.
