LG OLED evo 97W7 Leaks with 4,000-Nit Tandem Panel Ahead of CES 2027

LG is preparing a major technological leap for its ultra-large television lineup with the upcoming OLED evo 97W7, which surfaced ahead of CES 2027 via the CES Innovation Awards. Unlike current 97-inch models such as the G6 series that cap out at just over 2,000 nits, the leaked 97W7 introduces Tandem OLED panel technology to a massive screen size, hitting a staggering 4,000 nits of peak brightness.

Designed for enthusiasts seeking both high-end performance and minimalist aesthetics, this giant 4K display features a flush wall-mounting design backed by a carbon fiber material that keeps the profile down to 15.7 mm and the total weight under 40 kg. It also includes LG's wireless Zero Connect system for transmitting uncompressed 4K video, cutting down on cable clutter, alongside 83% coverage of the BT.2020 color space, 1.1% reflectance, and under-display optical and ambient sensors.

For high-end home theaters and gaming setups, the television packs serious horsepower with a 165 Hz variable refresh rate, Bluetooth Ultra Low Latency input, virtual 11.1.2-channel audio, and Gallery+ art-display functions. Pricing details remain unavailable, and official confirmation is not expected until CES 2027 concludes on January 9, 2027.

Should you buy it? Wait until official pricing and availability are announced, as this ultra-premium display will likely command a steep cost upon release.
