LG OLED M4

LG's wireless OLED TV is a wonder for wall-mounting without the cable clutter

- 

LG’s G4 range of OLED TVs are widely acknowledged to be among the very best OLED televisions you can currently buy. So how do you make a product as accomplished as that even more appealing? By turning it into the M4, that’s how, and making it wireless – save for a power cable, of course.

That wireless feature sends the convenience factor through the roof. And cutting the need for cables connected to the set itself makes it ideal for wall-mounting. If you can afford its elevated price tag, of course.

The LG OLED M4 – here reviewed in its 65-inch form – is on sale now, priced at £3,799 – nominally, at least. Which, we can all agree, is proper money for a 65-inch OLED TV – even one with a wireless party-piece.

The OLED M4 is also available in a 77-inch size with the same panel, while 83-inch and 97-inch models do also exist at elevated prices – but do not feature the same OLED panel type. It’s also worth pointing out at this juncture that there’s a newer OLED M5 model, which also comes with a 55-inch model option.

If you’re in any way familiar with the LG G4 OLED TV, or read the review in T3, a lot of the M4 is going to be very familiar. In fact, there’s really only one meaningful difference – the Zero Connect Box for wireless connectivity.

So yes, this is a 4K OLED TV with Dolby Vision HDR compatibility and a 120Hz refresh rate. It uses a second-generation MLA (‘micro lens array’) panel, which sees literally billions of miniscule lenses arranged in front of the light-emitting OLED pixels in an effort to extract unOLED-like levels of brightness. It’s fitted with LG’s latest Processing engine, called Alpha 11 Super Upscaling 4K, and this means it has a number of excitingly named algorithms and routines ready to maximise your viewing experience.
