Some of our favourite LG TVs in Currys offer

Most affordable

The C range of LG TVs has long been a hallmark of accessible but high-quality OLED technology, and this tradition continues with this 55-inch C4. In addition to the natural benefits of OLED refresh rate, contrast, and colour accuracy, the C4 carries Dolby Vision and an advanced α9 processor capable of upscaling older and lower-resolution content to look sparkling on modern screens.

With the Currys free soundbar deal, anyone buying this TV between September 10th and September 24th will also get an LG US60TR 5.1 soundbar, complete with an external subwoofer and two satellite speakers, worth £399.99.

Best for Dolby Atmos

The LG G4 is an ultra-slim but ultra-powerful OLED TV. To back up the OLED screen, it has an enhanced α11 processor, which features AI Director Processing to improve colour accuracy alongside upscaling. A brightness booster ensures that this is one of the brightest OLEDs available, and gamers will be extra excited about this TV, too, not only because of its 65-inch screen but also because of the 144Hz refresh rate.

This bundle includes the LG USC9S 3.1.3 Wireless Sound Bar with Dolby Atmos as the freebie, saving £999. In addition to Atmos, DTS: X is carried, as is WOW Orchestra, which couples the soundbar with the TV sparklers for an even more expansive and expressive sound experience.

Best for multimedia

A 77-inch TV will suit anyone with enough space to appreciate it (you’ll need to sit at least three meters away to make the most of the view), and so long as you do, you’ll have an excellent time. As a G4, the LG TV has advanced processing and upscaling. Brightness Booster Max is featured, pushing the OLED brightness to a higher level. It also comes with a built-in wall mount to streamline your set-up.  

The soundbar offered with this magnificent TV is the LG USG10TY, a 3.1 option with Dolby Atmos and a wireless subwoofer. Not only does this soundbar have the credentials to make your TV sound great, but it doubles as a smart speaker for music, supporting Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect and Chromecast, and Google and Alexa smart assistants.

Immersive visual and audio combined

LG is known for its OLED TVs and the impressive viewing experiences that come with them. This impressiveness is due to OLED's ultra-fast refresh rate, which makes motion smooth and detailed, and its inky blacks, which add huge contrast and depth to an image. Such features make OLED TVs the go-to choice for fans of cinema, sports or games:

For cinema: An OLED TV is ideal for cinema fans. The technology has excellent colour accuracy, giving you peace of mind that you see the final product as the director intended. LG has a Filmaker Mode, which switches off any image processing that may impact the original release's look.

For sports: OLED's high refresh rate means that high-speed footage and action are reproduced accurately and smoothly, which is a boon whether you're watching tennis, football, or Formula One.

For games: Gaming is where colour accuracy and high refresh rates join to produce a digital world's vibrant colour and action that is smooth as silk. If you are gaming on the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, you'll particularly enjoy how many LG OLED TVs can reach 120Hz.

Thanks to Currys' current offer of a free soundbar with a selected LG TV, you can be assured that your new setup's sound quality will equal the visuals brought by LG's screen tech.

Take the high-resolution LG USC9S soundbar, for example. As a 3.1.3 configured device, it offers seven audio channels despite its simple design and relatively small size. Six of these are in the bar, with six speakers firing in different directions – including upwards – to create a surround sound experience without having loads of single speakers around the room as you would in a traditional setup. The seventh channel is all about bass, with the external subwoofer giving rumble, power and bark to whatever media you're listening to.

Reinforcing the speaker setup, there is some fantastic software onboard. From LG's side, it has included WOW Orchestra, which allows the soundbar to collaborate with the TV speakers, giving additional channels and scope to your audio. Then there's also LG's Triple AI Sound Optimser, which automatically adjusts the audio to suit your room and configuration.

Two cherries top this software stack: Dolby Atmos and DTS: X. These immersive technologies manipulate sound to create a sense of three-dimensional space. Both will use all seven channels to put you, the viewer, right into the on-screen action.

There's no doubt that when coupled with an LG TV, the LG USC9S soundbar will be able to deliver truly immense, expansive, and quality audio to accompany the depth of class of the image displayed on-screen. Typically, if you wanted to buy this soundbar, you'd be looking at spending £999. But with the purchase of an LG C4 77-inch OLED EVO 4K HDR Smart TV at Currys, you'll get it totally free. Now that's a serious win.
