LG USA announces 2019 LG Nanocell TVs with AirPlay 2, HomeKit support

LG Electronics USA will launch its 2019 LG NanoCell LED 4K Ultra HD TVs with AI ThinQ beginning with the April debut of the 55-inch and 65-inch class LG Nano 9 series (SM9500 and SM9000 models), and the 49-inch, 55-inch, 65-inch and 75-inch LG Nano 8 series (SM8670 and SM8600 models) at LG-authorized dealers nationwide. 

Additional models and screen sizes will follow in May and June with other LG OLED models announced later in the year. Prices range from $899 to $2,899. All will support Apple AirPlay 2 and Apple HomeKit.



Thanks to AirPlay 2, LF NanoCell users will be able to easily play videos, music, photos and more directly from their iPhone, iPad, and Mac to the TVs. And HomeKit will enable customers to control their televisions using Apple’s Home app or by asking Siri.

The 2019 NanoCell TV lineup comprises 11 AI-enabled models, available in sizes ranging from 49 to 86 inches. Unveiled at CES  2019, these new TVs leverage the power of LG NanoCell technology IPS panels and a new processor. They sport LG’s new α7 Gen 2 intelligent processor for AI-enhanced picture and sound, “powered by a deep learning algorithm.”

LG NanoCell TV Nano 9 Series models feature Full Array Local Dimming (Full Array Local Dimming Pro in the 9500 model) while Nano 8 Series models use Local Dimming.
