Following their debut earlier this year at CES, where LG revealed its 2026 OLED TV lineup and its new modular audio ecosystem, the company has confirmed the new displays and audio systems begin shipping sometime in “early April.”
The new lineup includes the LG OLED evo G6 and LG OLED evo C6 TVs alongside the LG Sound Suite, a new wireless audio platform designed to deliver immersive spatial sound across multiple speakers. Recently, iPhone in Canada got a chance to see the new devices in action and get a glimpse of some new software features.
Both OLED series introduce LG’s latest display and AI features, including the Alpha 11 AI Processor Gen3, Hyper Radiant Colour Technology, and the next generation of the company’s webOS platform. Additionally, the OLED evo G6 and higher-end C6 models offer built-in ‘AI HDR Remastering’ software that upreses 720p content to look nearly indistinguishable from 4K.
Meanwhile, the Sound Suite lineup offers a flexible approach to home theatre audio, powered by Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, allowing users to mix and match wireless speakers in various configurations.
Pre-orders for LG’s new OLED TVs run from March 13 to March 26, 2026, in Canada through LG’s website and select partners. Retailers include Best Buy, Costco, Amazon, Visions Electronics, The Brick, and Leon’s. New audio products will also be available through LG and participating retailers.
Leading the lineup is the LG OLED evo G6, which LG says delivers its brightest OLED picture yet thanks to a combination of Brightness Booster Ultimate and the company’s Hyper Radiant Colour technology. I’ve always had a profound respect for the G-series, despite gravitating towards the C-series in the past. Seeing the new evo G6 in person, it’s hard not to gush over the colour gamut and how it handles contrast natively.
Powered by the Alpha 11 AI Processor Gen3, the G6 is designed to optimize both picture and sound automatically based on what’s on screen. The TV uses more than eight million self-lit pixels to deliver OLED’s signature deep blacks and vibrant colours. LG says its brightness technology can produce images up to 3.9 times brighter than standard OLED panels. This became very apparent during my in-person demo, where the lights were turned off, and I saw the evo G6 perform alongside last year’s model and comparable displays from other manufacturers.
As mentioned, LG is debuting its new AI HDR Remastering technology across the evo G6 series. With this, LG’s displays will automatically upscale videos being played to look as close to 4K as possible. In a side-by-side comparison, I saw Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning played in 720p with AI HDR Remastering enabled, against a TV running it in native 4K. The only discernible difference between the two versions was that the 720p version appeared slightly more saturated. The reds on screen looked slightly more muted than in the true 4K version. For many users, this won’t even be noticeable. LG made me wonder whether I should keep my 4K Netflix subscription, given the price increases. If a TV can do the heavy lifting itself, there may be little need for 4K access when it is locked behind paywalls.
For movie fans, the TV supports ‘Filmmaker Mode’, which automatically adjusts settings to match a director’s original intent, as well as Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos for HDR visuals and immersive audio.
LG is offering the G6 in four sizes: 55, 65, 77, and 83 inches. Canadian pricing starts at $2,999.99. A much larger 97-inch version is also planned, but will launch at a later date.
The LG OLED evo C6 is LG’s most mainstream OLED offering and remains one of the company’s most popular series. As a long-time fanatic of the C-series, I walked away impressed once again with this year’s model. It may not be a revolutionary step up from the evo C5, but this year’s model appears to be a worthy upgrade for anyone with an older C-series display.
Like the G6, the C6 is powered by the Alpha 11 AI Processor Gen3 and offers LG’s Perfect Black and Perfect Colour technologies for accurate images in both bright and dark environments. Larger 77- and 83-inch models also benefit from the company’s Hyper Radiant Colour enhancements. Gamers will find plenty to like here. The C6 features a 0.1ms response time, a native 120Hz refresh rate, and support for VRR up to 165Hz when connected to a PC. I’ve always sworn by the C-series for its support of console gaming. The evo C6 looks to be another highly recommended display for gaming in the living room, with
four HDMI 2.1 ports, making it well-suited for a setup with a PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch 2 all connected.
The C6 also includes the company’s latest webOS 26 smart platform, which integrates AI-driven recommendations and personalization features to simplify content discovery. This year, LG introduced the ‘My Page’ screen within webOS 26. This acts as a separate landing page where personalized information and widgets are available. Here, you can find anything from the calendar, current weather, sports analysis, and a ‘Continue Watching’ widget. Unfortunately, you can’t set My Page to the default screen when turning on your LG TV but it’s an interesting inclusion in webOS 26.
Like the G6, the C6 also supports Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and Filmmaker Mode. The C6 will be available in six screen sizes, including 42, 48, 55, 65, 77, and 83 inches. Pricing for the evo C6 in Canada starts at $1,699.99.
Alongside its new TVs, LG is also launching LG Sound Suite, a modular audio ecosystem designed to pair seamlessly with the company’s premium televisions. With all compatible Sound Suite devices, you can fill your living room with as many speakers as you desire and connect them with the new Dolby Atmos FlexConnect software.
Dolby Atmos FlexConnect allows users to place LG’s wireless speakers anywhere in the room while the system automatically adjusts audio output to match the layout. In the LG ThinQ app, you can adjust the speaker placement, and Dolby Atmos FlexConnect will adjust the sound design accordingly.
The system supports up to 27 different configurations, allowing users to build anything from a simple soundbar setup to a full 13.1.7-channel home theatre system. LG Sound Suite is ideal for those building a new home theatre or upgrading from the simple speaker system built into their display.
The lineup includes four core devices:
• LG Sound Suite H7 Soundbar ($1,299.99)
• LG Sound Suite M7 Wireless Speaker ($599.99)
• LG Sound Suite M5 Wireless Speaker ($399.99)
• LG Sound Suite W7 Wireless Subwoofer ($899.99)
Pre-orders for LG’s 2026 OLED TVs run from March 13 through March 26 via LG’s website and participating retailers.
LG also confirmed to me that additional products, including the Wallpaper W6 OLED and the next-generation StanbyME 2 display, will be announced for the Canadian market at a later date.
