At the top are panels for weather info, a portal to create an LG account and Search. Pressing Home whisks the viewer away to a new hub page for webOS 6.0, although there are instances where the old app row does pop up.
I have on occasion struggled with the scroll and click aspect of the centre button, but I think that’s more down to the remote being more suited for smaller digits. As the main interaction with the TV, the new Magic Remote feels good in the hand. The remote comes loaded with hotkeys – LG says they vary for each territory – so the UK gets Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Rakuten TV, as well as Google Assistant and Alexa. In the past, I haven’t been too keen on the click-and-point nature, but this revised version feels more accurate and less prone to flashing across the screen with the merest flick of the wrist. The first redesign concerns the Magic Remote. When it comes to the UI and remote, plenty has changed. From any angle, the LG G1 is a handsome set. The metallic-finished trim that encases the screen and thin bezel speaks to the high-quality of the G1’s construction. The only aspect that lets the side down are the covers for the back panel, which feel (and look) flimsy when applied.
If you opt for the feet then there’s enough clearance for a soundbar beneath, while the Gallery Stand is for free-standing positioning.īuild quality is outstanding.
Wall brackets are included, but stands are optional. Given the G1 Gallery OLED is designed to be wall-mounted, you should bear that in mind before a purchase. The LG G1 OLED has a depth of just 23.1mm and maintains that across the entirety of the rear, allowing it to sit flush against a wall. OLED screens are slim, but the electronics, processors and speakers must go somewhere, and that means a bulge around the back. Marketing about OLEDs usually focuses on the thinness of the screen, but the G1 is the first I’ve encountered where that holds true.
