The 2020 WX lineup includes the OLED65WXPUA and OLED77WXPUA models for North America, as well as the OLED65WXPLA and OLED77WXPLA models for Europe. The main differences between the regions lie in the digital tuners: the North American versions support ATSC and ClearQAM, while the European models use DVB T/T2/C/S/S2. The place of manufacture also varies, but the TVs are functionally identical.

LG SIGNATURE OLED65WX — Design and Features

The LG SIGNATURE OLED65WX embodies LG’s “wallpaper TV” concept, featuring an ultra-thin panel just 0.9 inches thick. This design allows the display to be mounted flush against the wall, creating a striking “picture on the wall” effect. The TV consists of two parts: a thin WRGB OLED panel with 10-bit color depth and a separate control module. This external module houses a powerful 4.2-channel audio system with a total output of 60 watts, including a 20-watt subwoofer. The display and control unit are connected by a single cable that transmits the video signal and powers the panel.

In terms of features, the OLED65WX is based on the previous 2019 W9 series but includes several notable improvements. The OS has been updated with image enhancement programs, though these are rarely used. The α9 Gen3 processor—a marketing name—is actually a standard MediaTek TV processor with built-in video processing algorithms, such as upscaling.

The TV supports a wide range of HDR formats, including Dolby Vision, HDR10, HLG, Dolby Vision IQ, and HDR Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro. As for smart features, the TV runs on webOS 5 and includes LG ThinQ AI (LG’s artificial intelligence platform for its devices), built-in Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, as well as compatibility with Apple AirPlay 2 and HomeKit. Users also get access to the LG Content Store, a web browser, Home Dashboard, and hands-free voice control.

Technical Specifications OLED65WX

The OLED panel operates at 120Hz with a response time of less than 1 ms. It supports ALLM and HGiG for gaming, though VRR, G-Sync, and FreeSync are not supported. Connectivity includes four HDMI 2.1 ports with eARC, three USB ports, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, Ethernet, and an optical audio output. The US version supports NEXTGEN TV (ATSC 3.0).
