You’ve seen the incredible colors and contrast of LG’s best-in-class OLED technology on its flagship TV lineup. Now, with more and more content consumption being done on mobile devices, and the rise of display standards like HDR on smartphones, LG has brought its OLED panels to mobile with the LG V30+.
The centerpiece of the LG V30+ is a massive 6.0-inch OLED FullVision with an elegant bezel-less design. It features all the deep blacks and vivid colors for which LG’s OLED panels are well known, as well as a crisp 2880 x 1440 resolution that showcases eye-popping detail in any content.
The display also supports the HDR10 and Dolby Vision standards, which allow it to show a wider range of brightness and contrast levels and color depth than ever before in supported high dynamic range content.

A good display needs good content, and with the LG V30+’s high-end camera system, you can capture your own moments in incredible detail. The dual camera features a huge f/1.6 aperture to let in more light than other smartphone cameras.
It also has both standard-angle and wide-angle cameras that allow you capture a greater field of view as you see fit. And with LG’s Cine Video mode, mobile videography takes on a whole new level of cinematic detail – a perfect companion for the OLED display.
Aside from its best-in-class display, the LG V30+ also features all the hallmarks of a modern flagship smartphone, including the top-tier Snapdragon 835 chipset, 4GB of RAM, 64 or 128GB of onboard storage, and IP68 certification for water and dust resistance. It also comes with a plethora of secure unlock options, including Face Recognition, Voice Recognition, Fingerprint Sensor, and Knock Code.
With the launch of the LG V30+, LG’s world-class OLED technology levels up your viewing experience right in the palm of your hand.

As the world’s Internet penetration rate increases, many doomsday heralds predict the demise of TV. However, fast-forward to 2017, the TV is not only still around, but also better and more high-tech models are being released every year. At this rate, one cannot help but wonder: What gives TV the staying power it is enjoying today?
TV affects society
The original philosophy behind the TV as a medium is to facilitate communication and globalization in the modern world. And as we find ourselves in a brand-new golden age of TV, no other medium does this as beautifully and as covertly as TV.
FPJ’s Ang Probinsiyano
Cultural changes on a global and local scale have been fueled in one way or another by TV shows. Locally, variety shows are consistently influencing the way most Filipinos talk.
And social scientists believe that teleseryes, like FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano, effectively preserve and promote Filipino family values and patriotism in a society that’s bombarded by various influences from abroad. These examples are just the tip of the iceberg.
Although some may argue that smartphones, tablets, and laptops are just as good as TVs when it comes to conveying society-altering messages, the clamor for high quality media cannot be ignored.
TV offers immersive viewing experience
While the big screen will always have a special place in the hearts of many cineastes, in front of the silver screen is where many families find themselves bonding over the latest episode of the hottest TV series. This is why more companies, like LG Electronics, deliver products that cater to the need for an immersive at-home viewing experience.
Early this year, LG released its latest OLED TV masterpiece – the 77-inch LG Signature OLED TV – in the local market. It features Active HDR with Dolby VisionTM and Dolby AtmosTM – an explosive combination in the visual and aural sense, significantly elevating the TV experience at home. This immersive entertainment formula is the perfect solution to stay true to the award-winning work many people put in cinematic masterpieces.
Christopher Nolan
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, director Christopher Nolan said, “Sound is as important as picture. I don’t agree with the idea that you can only achieve clarity through dialogue. Clarity of story, clarity of emotions – I try to achieve that in a very layered way using all the different things at my disposal – picture and mksound,” he said.
This is why LG’s TVs and sound bars come with Dolby Atmos technology to provide immersive audio with three-dimensional, object-based surround sound.
One of the company’s most notable sound bars is the advanced Multi-Dimensional SJ9 Surround Sound Bar. It is equipped with multiple speakers that deliver high-quality audio from every conceivable angle.
LG SJ7 Soundbar
Meanwhile, the Sound Bar Flex SJ7 brings versatility by allowing users to position its two halves anywhere they like.
“We recognize the importance of good quality audio in delivering cinematic masterpieces to more people. We put in equal amount of effort in making our TVs and sound bars; they are designed to deliver excellent musical scores down to its last note,” said Mr. Tony An, LG Philippines Vice President for Home Entertainment.
As long as more people demand for high quality content, TV will still be around, continuously evolving to redefine what it means to achieve a complete viewing experience.

The future of home cinema entertainment has arrived with the introduction of LG Signature OLED TV in the Philippines, via an official launch ceremony at the Ascott, BGC. LG is the pioneer in OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) technology. Thanks to OLED, we can now enjoy more vivid visuals like never before. Over the course of the past five years, LG has continually developed a better, more vibrant viewing experience. The result is the LG Signature OLED TV.

There is indeed cause to be excited because the pinnacle of this 5-year continuous improvement is embodied in the sleek 77-inch LG Signature OLED TV, the first LG Signature TV to be made available in the Philippines. LG Signature is the gold standard in design. Behind it is an intuitive, responsive and functional design philosophy that spells sheer elegance in simplicity.
OLED technology makes perfect blacks and perfect colors come alive, and the viewing experience is complemented by exceptional sound with the Dolby Atmos audio system. This is the first time that the Dolby Atmos has ever been featured in TV speakers. The result mimics reality on your TV.
Also because of OLED, the screen is so thin, it’s picture-in-glass thin! The result is a perfect viewing angle, wherever you are relative to the TV. Through the webOS, you can sit back and binge-watch movies and shows on Netflix for hours of non-stop excitement. No one can blame you if you never want to leave the house again!
Mr. Tony An, Vice President for Home Entertainment, LG Electronics Philippines
