LG has unveiled its take on the TV as picture frame trend with its brand-new Gallery TV, which will be available in 55 and 65 inches.

LG’s 4K TV is a MiniLED-backlit television that comes with swappable, magnetic frames. The Gallery TV comes with the Gallery Plus app, so users can choose from over 4,500 pieces of artwork, use generative AI or add their own.

The TV’s Gallery Mode optimizes color and brightness to “reproduce the visual texture of original masterpieces” using an onboard light sensor, and the TV is part of the company’s Art TV range, which LG will debut at CES 2026.

However, LG is well behind the curve with the gallery model, as multiple brands, including TCL, Hisense, Samsung and Skyworth have existing Frame-style TVs on the market. 

Pricing and availability of the Gallery TV is yet to be announced.
