SELF-LIT OLED – the ultimate picture technology
Rather than using a backlight, OLED TVs feature self-illuminating pixels. This SELF-LIT technology means that this LG 55 inch TV delivers 100% colour fidelity, infinite contrast with the deepest depth and stunning detail.
Powerful processing, made better – Alpha 7 Gen 5
Now in its fifth generation, LG’s powerful Alpha 7 processor continues to deliver optimum sound and vision. Using AI technology, the picture and sound are optimised to best suit the genre – be it movies, sport, gaming or regular TV. With Dynamic Tone Mapping, background enhancement and upscaling improvements, picture processing is more advanced than ever.
Now with AI Picture/Sound Pro for professional sound and vision
Previously only available on higher models, AI Picture Pro and AI Sound Pro are now standard on the OLED55B26LA. AI Picture Pro uses deep-learning algorithms to recognise content, remove noise and optimise the picture. AI Sound Pro leans from more than 17 million audio data points, identifying voices, effects and frequencies. From here, it optimises the sound by genre, giving a more natural sound quality.
Ultimate detail - Dolby Vision IQ
For ultimate detail, in all environments, this LG OLED features Dolby Vision IQ. Dolby Vision IQ version uses data within the signal and light sensors inside the TV to adjust the picture quality for the best contrast. This improves the picture’s brightness, without ‘washing out’ the depth. You get a consistent picture quality, however light or dark your room is. Whether you’re watching a brightly lit sports event or moody movie, Dolby Vision IQ adjusts to suit.
HDR made better, with HDR10 Pro
LG’s powerful processing also helps in getting the very best from HDR10 material. Whether watching movies or gaming with HDR10 games, HDR10 Pro intensifies the regular HDR experience. HDR10 Pro automatically adjusts the brightness, enhancing colour and detail for a more vivid picture.
See the picture exactly as originally intended, with Filmmaker Mode
If you’re mad about movies, you’ll love Filmmaker Mode. Designed in collaboration with filmmakers and Hollywood studios, Filmmaker Mode lets you experience the cinematic vision, exactly as the director intended. Overriding the TV’s own motion and picture processing, Filmmaker Mode presents the correct aspect ratio, colour and frame rate – just as the filmmakers intended.
Made for gaming – with Game Optimiser and more
The improved Game Optimiser utilises an enhanced gaming menu, giving you quick access to important settings. There are now five game genre presets, including a new one for sports games. Equipped with 48Gbps HDMI 2.1 sockets*, this LG TV is designed to get the very best from today’s, and future, games consoles. ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) mean that your TV automatically adjusts to the optimised settings for gaming – giving you a smoother and faster response.
*2 of the 4 HDMI sockets are HDMI 2.1.
Dolby Atmos compatible sound
With a Dolby Atmos processor built-in this LG 55” TV decodes Atmos sound tracks - giving you the potential for an even more immersive sound. With its built-in speaker system and punchy amp, the OLED55B26LA delivers a smooth, well-balanced sound.
Welcome home, with LG webOS 22 – the best in smart TV
Widely regarded as one of the best smart TV platforms, LG’s webOS system continues to set the standard. The latest webOS 22 offers improved personalisation and recommendations. You can create up to six personalised profiles, with individual viewing suggestions, sport alerts and app lists.
Magic Remote for easy control
LG’s Magic Remote has always led the field for simple, gesture control. As well as this, the remote features direct keys for popular streaming services Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney + and Rakuten TV. Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa also get dedicated buttons for simply voice recognition.
The hub of your home entertainment – with voice control
Featuring LG’s ThinQ AI technology, you can control a Home IoT ecosystem with natural voice recognition. With both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built-in, it makes it even easier to control your LG OLED TV and quickly access the entertainment you’re looking for.
For a TV that excels with all your media, the LG OLED55B26LA is the one TV that does it all.

Great Smart TV
It's a great TV, lovely picture quality and responsive "smart" features. The Magic Remote, which lets you wave the remote to move around the screen, makes interaction much easier that with a normal remote. I'd recommend this TV.

Great TV
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a really amazing TV, it has a super thin profile and looks great. One of the best features is that the blacks are really black so when you're watching something that is set in the dark the picture is so clear and you can make out what is happening and the picture quality overall is just fantastic with no lag when there is a lot of action on the screen. It was easy to set up and connected with my cable box, cube, and sound system. It also connected well with my universal remote control. It has all the usual features of a smart tv including apps for most of the paid for subscriptions. I only have a couple of little niggles, one is that when I turn on the tv for the first time on a morning, after it has been turned off at the mains, messages flash up on the bottom of the screen but they are gone so quickly I don't get a chance to read them and the sound, I was hoping not to need the sound system I had connected to my old tv and use the sound from the TV but it isn't good enough. It's possible I have just got used to the extra quality of a sound system and if I had just used the tv's sound previously this would be an improvement.

Great TV, good picture and vibrant colours.
I bought this TV a few weeks ago to put in my new home. After moving in and taken some time to unpack I finally got to watch my new TV and I'm very impressed with it so far. put TV on wall over fire place with bracket that was recommended by richer sounds and looks amazing. fire Place not in use so can make sure it works better.
