Product Overview

LG SIGNATURE Z1 is LG's 2021 flagship 8K OLED TV. It packs four of the company's most advanced α9 Gen4 AI 8K processor to drive LG's latest 8K OLED panel with over 100 million self-lit sub pixels, delivering unprecedented contrast and color reproduction.
Like the ZX from 2020, the Z1 comes in two sizes, 77" and 88", each coming with their own version of the 4.2-channel built-in speakers. The addition is in HDR 10 Pro, which further adjusts brightness to enhance color reproduction in details.
With a 120Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, HDMI 2.1, and broad support of variable frame rate, the Z1 is also a great option for gaming. To this end, it is part of LG's new enrollment to Google's Stadia Cloud, which also includes its mainstream C1 and G1 OLED TVs.
