LG's 2026 OLED TVs are quite a bit cheaper than last year's new models

LG Electronics has announced prices for most of its 2026 TV lineup, and the good news is that many of its new models are a little cheaper than last year’s equivalents.

The company had already announced U.S. prices a month ago that were on a par with last year’s, so U.K. consumers could be forgiven for thinking that the company would do the same on this side of the Atlantic and in other regions. But surprisingly, many of its TVs are quite a bit more affordable, and even its all-new Micro and Mini RGB evo TVs that use RGB LED backlights seem competitively priced.

At the top of the range sits LG’s flagship G6 OLED TV, which will be priced at £1,699 for the smallest 48-inch size, rising to £15,999 for the 97-inch model. While that’s seriously expensive, it’s a massive drop from the starting price of last year’s 97-inch G5 OLED TV, which cost £24,999. In the middle of the range sits the 65-inch G6, which is always a popular size, and it will cost £2,999, compared to £3,299 for the same sized G5 last year.

As for the LG W6 OLED, which is a slimmer version of the G6 that comes with a Zero Connect Box for wireless connectivity, that will cost £4,699 and £6,799 for the 77-inch and 83-inch versions, respectively.

The always-popular LG C-series returns with the C6 OLED, and it starts with a smaller 42-inch model that will set you back just £1,299. The 65-inch C6 will cost £2,499, while the biggest 83-inch version is priced at £4,799. There’s also the entry-level B6 OLED, with the smallest available size being the 48-inch model at £1,399. The 65-inch B6 will cost £2,299, and the 83-inch model is tagged at £3,599. All of those prices are cheaper than last year’s equivalents.

Moving away from OLED, we have LG’s new Micro RGB evo TVs, which are headed up by the MRGB96B. It’s only going to be sold in massive sizes, with the smallest 75-inch model priced at £3,899, the 86-inch version costing £5,799 and the largest 100-inch type priced at £12,999. Next, we have the Mini RGB evo or MRGB86B, which starts at just £899 for the smallest 50-incher, rising to £2,699 for the 86-inch model.

LG’s QNED Mini-LED TV range is led by the QNED86B, with the 43-inch model priced at £599, and the largest 100-incher set to cost £3,999. Finally, we should mention the LX7B “lifestyle” TV, which is LG’s attempt to rival Samsung’s iconic gallery TV “The Frame.” It will be sold in two sizes – 55-inches, priced at £999, and 65-inches, costing £1,299.

The price drops are extremely encouraging, as many analysts had feared that costs may increase this year due to economic concerns, the memory chip drought caused by the AI boom, and the fuel crisis sparked by the conflict in the Middle East. But bear in mind, these are just the starting prices, and we will inevitably see some significant price drops as the year goes on, as well as the occasional promotion that will briefly and dramatically slash costs even more, so there’s reason to hold off buying for a while.
