I'm David Katz Meyer from CNET here at CES 2018 you're looking at LG's best LCD display not OLED LG is known for its OLED organic light-emitting diode displays this is not it this is an LCD TV a little bit less picture quality but LG says it has improved from previous years the biggest difference this year is the addition of full array local dimming and technology that allows the backlight of the screen to dim and brighten different areas independently technology we've found on other displays that really does improve the picture we'll see how it looks on this one this is the 9500 series the local dimming is also available on the 9000 series the less expensive super UHD TV does not have us in LG's line this year LG also had a Google Assistant to its Smart TVs you can pick up the remote talk into it do things like searches and ask for other Google assists and things like you can even control smart home appliances using your television so that's a new addition this TV also works with Google home you can use it without the remote to get some select commands you can also interface with an Alexa skill if you have an Alexa or an Amazon echo device to talk to the TV and control it hands-free that way other picture quality actors include nano cell which LG says improves viewing angle and color the TV also has 4k high dynamic range in pretty much everything else you'd expect from a high-end LCD TV that's a quick look at LG's K 9500 series I'm David Katz my CES 2018
