A few hours ago we saw how LG began to bring the application to access Apple TV + to the televisions launched in 2016 and 2017 and now we have to talk about the OLED LG CX, GX, WX and RX range of 2020 and an update that will make them compatible with games with support for Dolby Vision 4K at 120 Hz.
More and more manufacturers are betting on offering compatibility with the latest generation consoles on their televisions. If recently it was Sony that launched the “Perfect for PlayStation 5” label, now it is LG that improves performance on some of your 2020 TVs after offering the same support in the 2021 range.
For next generation consoles
LG will make this possible through a firmware update that will begin to roll out over the next week and thus enable support for the Dolby Vision system in 4K at 120 Hz. on LG CX and GX OLED TVs released in 2020.
The support to take advantage of the titles with Dolby Vision in 4K and 120 Hz was already available on the C1 and G1 models that LG has launched in 2021. Now it comes to the LG CX, GX, WX and RX of 2020.
Until now, these televisions offered game playback in 4K and Dolby Vision but limited to 60 Hz, so that they couldn’t take advantage of 120 fps that can offer both the Xbox Series X and the PlayStation 5.
According to FlatPanels, the firmware update will be released globally next week and has already reached some owners in South Korea. An update bearing the version number 04.30.10. It will be a gradual release that can be accessed through the TV update menu and later by downloading the firmware manually from the LG website.
Signature expect the update to be available in all regions by the end of October. Meanwhile, LG is studying the possibility of supporting Dolby Vision at 120Hz in other models, including the OLED 2019 models.
