LG Electronics: A CES 2016 standout with future-proof TV technology

On top of the bar-raising OLED, UHD and Smart TV line-up, LG proved in CES 2016 that its top-quality innovations are endless as it revealed the revolutionary 18” OLED TV that can be rolled up like a newspaper.

Global technology innovator LG Electronics wowed International Consumer Electronics (CES 2016) attendees with its future-proof innovations, which include three Smart TV technologies. CES has been the proving ground for innovators and breakthrough technologies for over 40 years, attracting thousands of inventors, developers and manufacturers of tech products, as well as investors, enthusiasts and journalists sniffing out the next big thing in the wide, wonderful world of consumer electronics.

To stand out among the competition, LG Electronics focused on what matters most today and the years to come: uniqueness, efficient design, intuitive technology and affordability. The core needs of its consumers—technology that enhances their lifestyles and experiences—remain at the heart of LG’s research, development and manufacturing activities.LG’s latest version of its OLED, UHD and Smart webOS 3.0 TV lines are evidence of the company’s pursuit of a consumer-centric direction.

Award-winning OLED technology

At last year’s CES, LG unveiled the curved and flat variants of its 4K OLED (organic light emitting diode) TV line, which featured deeper blacks, richer colors and four times the clarity and resolution of Full HD. Tech publications dubbed the OLED technology as the future of TV, as it uses never-before-seen self-lighting pixels that can turn on and off individually.

This year, LG announced an expansion in its groundbreaking OLED TV line, adding eight more models to its current roster. The LG G6 OLED line touts a remarkable “HDR Pro” technology that perfectly complements OLED’s displayof seamless black and “infinite”color contrasts. This allows LG’s OLED sets to replicate the screen’s brightness and contrast intelligently to display the color spectrum closer to reality as possible. This outstanding revelation on the LG G6 OLED new technology, more specifically with the 77-inch model heading the line-up, earned LG the 2016 CES Best of Innovations Award.

Perfect detail

The smallest details can distinguish a fad product from technology that can withstand fickle trends—and perfect details are what set LG’s SUPER UHD TV models apart from the rest of the pack at CES 2016.

SUPER UHD boasts of higher color reproduction rates (True Black Panel), picture-enhancing features (Contrast Maximizer), an alluring ULTRA Slim design and mind-blowing audio in collaboration with audio pioneer Harman/Kardon and the unique Magic Sound Tuning function, which automatically makes adjustments to tailor-fit sound quality to the viewer’s environment.

Enhanced versatility, UI for next-level entertainment

At the CES 2016, LG unveiled the webOS 3.0, the latest iteration of its acclaimed Smart TV platform. Building from the technology the company introduced in 2014, webOS 3.0 features the combination of consumer insight and LG’s tech breakthroughs for enhanced versatility, an improved user interface specifically designed for convenience and intuitive navigation, and a wealth of new features and content.

“We are excited about webOS 3.0, a major update since this advanced TV platform technology was first introduced in 2014,” said Brian Kwon, President and CEO at LG’s Home Entertainment Company. “The webOS story ofSimple Connection, Simple Switching and Simple Discoveryhas really connected with customers and illustrates very clearly our commitment to securing a leadership role in the Smart TV market with innovation and creativity.”

CES 2016 attendees experienced the new, unobtrusive webOS interface, which set the stage for the three magic smart features: Magic Zoom, Magic Mobile Connection and the improved Magic Remote. A new feature called Multi-View allows users to watch two screens—from different channels or input sources such as cable channel and Blu-Ray player—simultaneously.The new webOS 3.0 also brings in a whole new world of premium content through Channel Plus.

Alongside the cutting-edge innovations launched globally at CES 2016, LG recently announced that multinational Internet TV provider Netflix is already available in selected Smart TV models in the Philippines as part of its global rollout. LG was chosen as Netflix’s primary global business partner due to the superior picture quality and performance it lends to the Smart TV industry and Netflix viewing experience alike.

Max's #PusoToTheMax Cheer

Mamayang gabi, labing-dalawang atletang Filipino ay lalahok FIBA World Cup sa Seville. At sa papalapit na ang pagkakataong ito, gumawa ang mga kasamahan natin sa Max's ng isang ad. Di lang siya ordinaryong ad, kundi may pagka-instructional din.



Madali namang gawin yung mga galaw, di ba? Sana magamit natin sa mga laro ng Gilas Pilipinas. Di lang sa Spain, kundi pati sa Korea.

Max's launches Gilas Favortie Takeout Treat Promo

Max's Restaurant has positioned themselves squarely behind the SMART Gilas Pilipinas national basketball team.

One remembers those #PusoToTheMax billboards all across the metro, and of course, the "Dito" ad released over a month ago:



As part of their continued support, Max's recently launched the "Gilas Favorite Delivery Treat," which is one Max's fried chicken, with a free bottle of banana catsup as well as a limited-edition Gilas Pilipinas Eco Bag. You can have that combo sent to almost wherever for just PhP 299.

Just before the ill-fated "Last Home Stand," Max's invited some bloggers to partake of the three new dips alongside the "sarap-to-the-bones" Pinoy-style fried chicken as an appetizer to what would have been the main course of an event. Well, we know what happened at the SMART-Araneta Coliseum instead.

The new additional dips are the gravy dip (that some have said looks like one from Pancake House, which Max's took over and merged recently), chili sauce and Pinoy Sarsa (ala the fabled Mang Tomas at home)

 

In addition to tasting the new dips, they also revealed the winners of a couple of contests Max's had, with the reward being a chance to fly to Spain and watch Gilas play. Congratulations to winners Pauline Vislenio and Jennifer Tayag Dueñes who will both be witness to the FIBA World Cup festivities in Seville.

Cosmos to make Philippine debut this Wednesday

On March 12, the Filipino and other Asian viewers will be witnessing a new way at looking at the universe.

Fox, as well as the National Geographic Channel, will be premiering the highly anticipated and groundbreaking series, Cosmos: A Space-Time Odyssey, at 10pm this Wednesday.

An update on the award-winning 80s landmark series Cosmos: A Personal Voyage, Cosmos illustrates how humans developed their concept of the laws of nature and its place in the universe. The first episode, which Fox and NatGeo held a private screening last Friday, expounds on that, leaving me very impressed.

The updated Cosmos reimagined classic quirks like the Cosmic Calendar and the Ship of the Imagination from the original series, hosted by the legendary Carl Sagan. It also integrates new styles of storytelling with things that were not existent back in the day, with the addition of CGI and other visual effects.

Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane spearheaded the project, with the help of Sagan's collaborators for the original series, Ann Druyan and Steven Soter. In this way, Cosmos remains true to what Sagan's vision with in the original while allowing the viewer to see new insights about their universe.

Hosting the series is author and astrophysicst Neil DeGrasse Tyson, who shared his relationship with Sagan during the first episode.
