At CES 2026, LG Electronics officially brought back one of the most iconic TVs ever created — the LG OLED evo W6 True Wireless Wallpaper TV. Originally introduced in 2017, LG’s Wallpaper TV stunned the industry by proving that a television could function as both premium display technology and architectural design.

For 2026, LG has reimagined that concept from the ground up. The new OLED evo W6 combines a 9mm-class ultra-thin profile, True Wireless connectivity, and Hyper Radiant Color Technology, delivering LG’s brightest, most immersive OLED picture ever — without visible cables or bulky components.

This guide explains everything consumers need to know about LG’s most advanced and visually striking TV to date, and who will benefit most from bringing the Wallpaper TV into their home.

Innovation at Its Thinnest: What Makes the Wallpaper TV Unique

The defining feature of the LG OLED evo W6 is its extraordinary physical design. Measuring just 9mm thin, the W6 is achieved through extensive miniaturization and a complete re-engineering of internal components. The result is a large-format OLED TV that appears to float on the wall like a framed piece of art.

An upgraded wall-mounting system allows the W6 to sit flush edge-to-edge against the wall, eliminating gaps and shadows that typically break the illusion of a “wallpaper” display. Once installed, the TV visually disappears into the room — leaving only the image.


True Wireless OLED: Freedom From Cables

One of the most significant breakthroughs in the W6 is LG’s True Wireless technology. Instead of connecting HDMI devices, game consoles, or set-top boxes directly to the TV, all inputs are routed through LG’s Zero Connect Box.

How True Wireless Works

  • The Zero Connect Box can be placed up to 10 meters (about 33 feet) away
  • It wirelessly transmits visually lossless 4K video and audio
  • The TV itself requires only power — no visible signal cables

This design gives homeowners and interior designers unprecedented freedom in room layout. Media devices can be hidden in a cabinet, credenza, or equipment closet while the TV remains perfectly clean and minimal.

Hyper Radiant Color Technology: OLED Taken to the Next Level

The 2026 OLED evo lineup introduces Hyper Radiant Color Technology, LG’s most advanced picture system to date. This new technology enhances brightness, color volume, and black levels, while also dramatically reducing screen reflections.

Brightness Booster Ultra

The W6 achieves luminance levels up to 3.9× brighter than conventional OLED TVs, thanks to Brightness Booster Ultra. This allows the Wallpaper TV to deliver stunning HDR highlights while maintaining OLED’s signature perfect blacks.

Reflection Free Premium Certification

LG engineered a new low-reflectance screen that earned the industry-first Reflection Free Premium certification from Intertek. This means:

  • Fewer distractions from windows and overhead lights
  • Consistent image quality even in bright rooms

Combined with UL Solutions-verified Perfect Blacks and Perfect Colors, the W6 delivers reference-level image accuracy in real-world lighting conditions.

α11 AI Processor Gen3: Smarter Picture Processing

Powering the OLED evo W6 is LG’s α (Alpha) 11 AI Processor Gen3, featuring a Neural Processing Unit that is 5.6× more powerful than previous generations.

The processor introduces a Dual AI Engine, which runs parallel algorithms to:

  • Reduce noise
  • Preserve natural texture and detail

Unlike traditional processing that can over-sharpen images, LG’s approach maintains realism while enhancing clarity. The result is a balanced, cinematic picture that adapts intelligently to the content being watched.

LG Gallery+: When Your TV Becomes Interior Design

With LG Gallery+, the Wallpaper TV becomes more than just a screen — it becomes part of the room’s atmosphere.

Gallery+ offers:

  • Over 4,500 curated visuals (cinematic scenes, artwork, gaming visuals)
  • Personal photo collections
  • AI-generated images created directly on the TV
  • Mood-matching background music

For design-focused homeowners, this transforms the W6 into a dynamic art display when not actively watching content, reinforcing LG’s vision of the TV as a lifestyle object.

Elite Gaming Performance for 2026

Despite its minimalist design, the OLED evo W6 is a top-tier gaming TV.

Key gaming features include:

  • 4K resolution at up to 165Hz refresh rate
  • NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible
  • AMD FreeSync Premium
  • 0.1ms pixel response time
  • Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM)

These specs make the W6 suitable not only for console gaming but also for high-end PC gaming setups, delivering ultra-smooth, tear-free gameplay without compromise.

Personalized AI TV Experience With webOS and Multi-AI

LG’s award-winning webOS platform evolves further in 2026 with deep personalization powered by AI.

Voice ID and My Page

The TV recognizes who is speaking and automatically loads that user’s personalized home screen — apps, recommendations, and widgets — without manual profile switching.

Multi-AI Integration

LG integrates Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, allowing users to:

  • Ask conversational questions
  • Receive tailored content suggestions
  • Explore on-screen details using the new “In This Scene” feature

Users can even generate images with AI directly from the TV, blending entertainment with creativity.

LG Shield Security

All personalization is protected by LG Shield, a CES 2026 Innovation Award-winning security platform that uses advanced encryption to safeguard user data and privacy.

Who Is the LG OLED evo W6 For?

The LG OLED evo W6 is ideal for:

  • Design-focused homeowners and interior designers
  • Luxury home installations
  • Users who want zero cable clutter
  • Movie lovers seeking reference-level OLED picture quality
  • Gamers who want elite performance without sacrificing aesthetics

It is not just a TV — it is a statement piece that merges cutting-edge display technology with architectural design.

The Future of OLED, Made Invisible

With the OLED evo W6, LG demonstrates that thinner, wireless, and more powerful TVs are not competing goals — they are complementary. By combining True Wireless connectivity, Hyper Radiant Color Technology, and 13 years of OLED leadership, LG once again sets the benchmark for what premium television can be.

For consumers looking to invest in a TV that blends seamlessly into their space while delivering the very best in picture quality, gaming, and personalization, the LG OLED evo W6 Wallpaper TV stands as one of the most compelling innovations of CES 2026.
