Its conversational AI agent is called ThinQ Claw (a riff on OpenClaw) and builds on its acquisition of Homey. LG says it can “understand user intent and context and help complete tasks by connecting and coordinating relevant services and devices,” be they LG appliances or third-party products. It’s being demoed for the first time at the big IFA tech show kicking off later this week.
The LG Gallery TV with Frame, originally announced at CES 2026, is now available alongside a collaboration with The Met that gets you access to over 100 works from its collection. It’s already discounted and cheaper than The Frame — $800 for the 55 inch and $1,000 for the 65 inch — and a white frame is included.
Announced in May, the 24.5-inch LG UltraGear (25G590B) is the first monitor to support a native 1000Hz refresh rate at 1,920 x 1,080 resolution.
The monitor is available for preorder starting today, and LG’s website suggests shipments will arrive as early as September 3rd.

Is the inclusion of “happy little trees” in ad-loving LG’s digital art gallery enough of a reason to connect its TVs to the internet. Probably not.
LG’s Wide Hover Screen concept combines a 20-inch central console display and ultra-short-throw projector to create a large heads-up display on the windshield. It builds upon LG’s UltraView Windshield Display designed to help drivers keep their eyes on the road by minimizing unnecessary eye movement.

Despite being out on parental leave, LG’s willingness to force ads onto its monitors and televisions has Tom Warren in a fighting mood when he should be making coo coo sounds at his new son.
It may never come to the US, but LG announced its new HomeBot AI Objet Collection Roni robot vacuum in South Korea today. Its charging/cleaning dock can be hidden in kitchen cabinetry (requiring some reno) but there’s also a standalone dock that looks like a nondescript side table.
The upgraded StanbyMe 2 Max TV that was unveiled in April is now available to buy in the US for $1,299.99. The 32-inch display provides up to 4.5 hours of battery life, and can be rotated into landscape or portrait orientations when attached to its rolling stand, or the built-in folding stand at the rear.

After debuting at CES 2025, the StanbyMe 2 launched last July with a 27-inch 1440p display (the original was only 1080p). Less than a year later LG is introducing a new 32-inch version with a resolution bump to 4K and a slightly longer 4.5 hour battery. It’s launching in South Korea for around $1,080 but US availability hasn’t been confirmed.
JerryRigEverything tore down LG’s unreleased rollable smartphone, and seeing the insides of this phone and how it works is just awesome. The teardown proper starts at about 4 minutes and 20 seconds.
The household robot made its debut at the company’s CES 2026 press conference, rolling onto the stage and giving a ponderous demo of putting a towel into a laundry machine.
The sizable wheeled robot used its articulating arms and huge hands to perform the action and talked to the audience about its technology and capabilities, using human-like hand gestures to emphasize its words.
I’m at LG’s CES press conference, awaiting a glimpse of CLOiD, its new household robot. Two words, LG: Live. Demo.
Will we get a closer look at its laundry-folding CLOiD robot? You can tune into the livestream below or directly on YouTube.
Longtime Verge readers will know: art TVs are not good TVs. But there’s a reason manufacturers keep making more of them.
Holmeser:
Manufacturers simply can’t resist the appeal of a low-quality LCD panel they can sell for the price of an OLED

The company announced a third quarter profit of KRW 688.9 billion (around $480 million) despite losses of about half that from its TV division, which it hopes to fix through “advancements in advertising.”
It’s the rare company to call out US tariffs directly, though it doesn’t blame them for the TV shortfall.
LG’s massive Magnit Active Micro LED TV will hit the South Korean market on October 21st with the North American market following later.
No pricing is listed, but considering a 118-inch model in 2023 was $237,000, we expect this new one to be as much as a small house.

Nvidia didn’t provide specific model names, but it’ll be a native app for monitors and TV with 5K120 and 4K120 HDR streaming. “No Android TV devices, no Chromecast, nothing, run it directly on the television,” says Nvidia product marketing director Andrew Fear. More on GeForce Now’s big upgrade:
LG Display is showing off “the world’s fastest OLED monitor panel” at K-Display in Seoul this week. The 27-inch OLED panel has a 540Hz refresh rate at native 1440p resolution, and it can also deliver a 720Hz refresh rate in a 720p mode.
LG Display also has a 45-inch 5K2K OLED panel (5120 x 2160), which it says “boasts the world’s highest resolution among existing OLED monitor panels.” Hopefully, this means we’ll see a lot more OLED monitor options at CES early next year.
Correction, August 20th: LG Display now says the 720Hz mode is 720p, not 1080p. It previously asked us to correct our story to say it was 1080p, not 720p, but then asked for a second correction saying the opposite.
After announcing the funky portable TV at CES in January, LG is now starting to roll it out in global stores. It’s already listed in Canada for CA$1,799 (about $1,169) and Singapore for SG$1,599.99 (about $1,248) with tax included in the prices, and will be available in the US and Vietnam this month, with prices to be determined. After that, the StanbyME 2 will arrive in the UK, Germany, France, and Spain in August.
