LG's new TV upgrade shows it's pushing back against Samsung in one key way

More art all the time

For a good stretch of years, there was basically no debate that the best "art TVs" on the market were being made by Samsung. That doesn't necessarily mean that its The Frame TVs were the best-value options out there (hence why they never sat atop our list of the best TVs overall), but they were superb for those who didn't want a black void in their living room.

Now, though, the picture is getting much more complicated, with a bunch of other big TV brands finally starting to get serious about competing with Samsung as far as wall art goes. LG is probably the biggest of those stepping things up, and it just underlined its current commitment to offering more art for people to view on their TVs while they're not watching movies or shows.

This all takes the total number of art pieces available through Gallery+ to over 5,000 – as LG puts it, these encompass everything "from fine art to cinematic scenes and game visuals". So, you should be able to find a selection that sparks joy, albeit at an extra cost of $5/€5/£5 each month. There's a month's free trial in most regions, though, giving you a chance to test it out.

This move comes against the backdrop of one of the most impressive launches we saw at CES 2026 – the LG OLED W6 Wallpaper TV, a stunningly flat and non-reflective OLED panel with art as a major focus. I saw it in person and can confirm that it would be a gorgeous addition to any room, and LG clearly wants to push it this year.
