LG's 9mm Wallpaper TV W6 lands at CES 2026, featuring wireless OLED tech and ultra-thin design. UAE price and release details to be confirmed.

LG OLED Wallpaper W6 Revealed: Real Wireless, Ultra Thin, UAE Release Details

LG has brought back its Wallpaper TV for 2026, unveiling the OLED evo W6 as the thinnest true wireless OLED television at CES 2026 in Las Vegas. If you've ever wanted your screen to disappear into the wall—and ditch the cable mess—this is one to watch for UAE homes with a taste for ultra-premium design.

The LG Wallpaper TV, originally launched in 2017, now returns with a 9mm-thin form factor and fully wireless video/audio transmission. No visible cables running up your wall. No compromise on 4K quality.

Super-Thin Wireless Design Leads LG's 2026 OLED Lineup

The LG OLED evo W6 is the flagship for LG's 2026 OLED range, measuring just 9mm thick. LG says the W6 can be mounted flush against the wall using a redesigned bracket and miniaturised internals.

Connectivity is handled by the Zero Connect Box, which sits up to 10 metres from the screen. All your HDMI inputs, gaming consoles, and streaming boxes plug into this separate unit—not the TV itself.

  • 9mm thin panel (class-leading)
  • Zero Connect Box moves all inputs away from the TV (up to 10m)
  • Flush wall mounting via new bracket
  • True wireless 4K video and audio

The result is a near-invisible tech presence—provided your room layout lets you hide the Zero Connect Box. This is not a TV you'll be moving around. Think luxury flats, statement walls, or homes where tech should blend with interiors, not dominate them.

Display Tech: Hyper Radiant Colour, Brightness Booster, Reflection Free Screen

The W6 uses LG's latest Hyper Radiant Colour Technology, which promises deeper blacks, more vivid colour, and up to 3.9x higher brightness than standard OLEDs (according to LG).

The display also tackles a common Dubai problem: glare. LG says the W6 is its lowest-reflectance OLED ever, with third-party certification from Intertek for reflection reduction.

  • Hyper Radiant Colour Tech: richer colours, higher contrast
  • Brightness Booster Ultra: up to 3.9x standard OLED brightness (company claim)
  • Reflection Free Premium screen—certified by Intertek
  • Perfect Blacks and Perfect Colours UL-certified

If you have a living room with lots of windows (or harsh overhead lighting typical in UAE flats), this matters. The promise is visible daytime viewing without distracting glare. We haven't tested the W6 yet, but earlier LG anti-reflection screens made a noticeable difference.

Performance: New AI Processor, Gaming Features, Personalisation

For 2026, LG's α (Alpha) 11 AI Processor Gen3 sits inside every OLED W6, handling image optimisation and smart TV features. This chip reportedly delivers 5.6x better AI performance versus the previous generation, balancing sharpness and texture so you get both noise reduction and natural detail.

Gamers aren't left out. The W6 supports 4K at up to 165Hz, NVIDIA G-SYNC, AMD FreeSync Premium, and a 0.1ms response for low-latency play.

  • α11 AI Processor Gen3: 5.6x faster AI (company claim)
  • Dual AI Engine for simultaneous noise reduction and detail retention
  • 4K 165Hz refresh, fast response, gaming sync tech
  • Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) for consoles

This isn't just for Netflix. If your household streams, games, or uses a huge screen as a workspace, this TV is built for it. The webOS platform adds user profiles with Voice ID, AI-powered info through Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, and security via the new LG Shield system.

The LG Wallpaper TV isn't just about what's on screen—it's also about what happens when it's off. With LG Gallery+, you can convert your TV into wall art, ambient visuals, or display generative AI artwork and personal photos. The service comes loaded with over 4,500 visuals and music options.

  • LG Gallery+: 4,500+ visuals, supports personal and AI-generated artwork
  • Mood-matching background music
  • Available on Wallpaper TV and other 2026 OLED models

This feature makes more sense in spacious open-plan flats. Even a studio can benefit if you want your investment to double as stylish interior decor when you're not watching.

Pricing & Availability in UAE

As of January 2026, LG has not announced UAE-specific pricing or release dates for the Wallpaper TV W6. Historically, flagship OLEDs like these land in the UAE two to four months after US/Europe launches, usually at a significant premium.

For reference, previous Wallpaper models launched upwards of Dhs 25,000 for 65-inch variants. Expect similar or higher pricing for the W6.

  • UAE pricing: To be confirmed (estimate: Dhs 25,000+)
  • Release date: Expected Q2/Q3 2026
  • Where to buy: Leading UAE electronics retailers (Sharaf DG, Jumbo, Emax), LG brand stores

Installation is not DIY-friendly—expect professional options as with earlier Wallpaper models. If you're shopping ultra-premium TVs, also compare new Samsung and Sony OLED launches expected mid-2026.

Should You Care About LG's Wallpaper TV in the UAE?

If you want the statement piece for your living room, care about truly wireless tech (without sacrificing image quality), and need screen brilliance even in sunlight, the W6 is one of the most advanced TVs you can buy.

But this is a luxury purchase. Expect professional installation, managing the Zero Connect Box placement, and a price tag north of Dhs 25,000. For most, it comes down to what matters more: tech that blends into the room, or better bang-for-dirham elsewhere.

We'll update UAE pricing and availability once confirmed.
