SEOUL, March 24 (AJP) - LG Electronics has swept the latest television rankings from Consumer Reports, securing all ten of the top spots with its OLED Evo models — a remarkable feat that underscores the company's growing dominance in the premium TV segment in the United States.

According to the firm on Monday, all ten top-rated televisions in the influential consumer guide earned scores of 88 points or higher, with LG’s 55-, 65-, and 77-inch OLED Evo G4 models each receiving 90 points — the highest ratings awarded to any television since 2019.

The 65-inch G4 model was singled out by Consumer Reports as “one of the best TVs you can buy,” praised for its “excellent color accuracy, deep blacks, [and] unlimited viewing angles.”

The publication, known for purchasing and testing products independently without accepting advertising or sponsorships, noted the model had “no downsides.”

Beyond its sweep of the top ten, LG also claimed 13 of the 17 TVs rated 87 points or higher. The remaining four were OLED models from rival Samsung.

By contrast, premium LCD sets from Chinese manufacturers Hisense and TCL fared poorly, with Hisense’s 85-inch UX model scoring just 74 points, and TCL’s 65-inch QM851G earning 73.

The North American market remains a critical battleground for high-end televisions.

According to market research firm Omdia, the region accounts for 28.8 percent of global shipments for TVs priced above $1,500 and 30.6 percent of those priced over $2,500. OLED technology now dominates those brackets, representing nearly 60 percent of shipments above $1,500 — and more than 80 percent in the $2,500-and-up category.
