LG’s transparent wireless OLED TV is now available. The 77-inch OLED T has 4K resolution, LG’s wireless transmission technology for video and audio and the ability to switch between transparent and opaque mode at the push of a button. This futuristic technology, debuting at CES 2024, will only set you back… oh, holy hell, this thing costs $60,000.
Engadget’s Billy Steele tested the OLED T in January and was impressed by its unique presentation. While some of the transparent visuals can seem unsettling – like the little singer that appeared in the room – the fish tank video in the image below was quite entertaining. He also found the bottom-firing TV speakers to sound surprisingly good.
You can switch between transparent and opaque modes by pressing the button that raises or lowers the contrast screen. It rolls into a box on its base if you prefer a funky fish tank look. It also includes taillights to accentuate its obvious appearance.
The TV also has a chyron-like T-Bar at the bottom, which you can use to check sports scores, weather, song titles and more. The bar can stay on even if the rest of the TV is off.
The OLED T is powered by LG’s Alpha 11 A1 processor, which has four times the performance of the previous gen chip – including 70 percent better graphics performance and 30 percent faster processing speed. The TV maintains its clean profile with LG’s Zero Connect Box, which sends video and audio wirelessly to the TV. Just connect your streaming boxes and game consoles to it instead of the TV.
If you happen to be Bill Gates (‘sup, Bill!), you can put down a whopping $60 to order the LG OLED T starting today. Available on LG’s website and select retail partners, including Best Buy.
