TV OF THE YEAR 2026/2027: LG OLED C6

The trade magazine Elektronikkbransjen, in collaboration with retail experts, has named the product of the year in 16 categories, and LG OLED C6 was named ‘TV of the Year 2026/2027’.

This is the 23rd consecutive year that the trade magazine has organised the awards, which also include the selection of the Christmas gift of the year. Dedicated expert juries have assessed the products’ features, whether they bring something new to the market, and their expected popularity among the Norwegian public. The criteria also require that the products have gone on sale in Norway after 1 January 2026 and will be available in stores in the run-up to Christmas.

The expert jury in this category consists of Alf Leifseth (Power), Ardian Gashi (Elkjøp), Jonathan Adland (Komplett/NetOnNet), Knut Grimstad (Elon) and jury chair Stian Sønsteng (Elektronikkbransjen).

LG OLED C6

The C6 series comes with the alpha 11 AI Processor 4K Gen3, Brightness Booster, anti-reflective treatment, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and a 165 Hz refresh rate. It has four HDMI 2.1 ports, support for G-Sync, FreeSync and VRR, as well as webOS for streaming and smart home control. The TV is available in sizes from 42 to 83 inches. According to the expert jury, this is a further development of an already strong series, with even better black levels, improved anti-reflection coating and strong gaming specifications.
