This includes an upgraded black frame insertion system called OLED Motion Pro that now operates at 100/120Hz (compared to 50/60Hz last year) and with shorter black frame cycle (25% vs. 50% last year). LG says the system eliminates flicker and maintains brightness, which were FlatpanelsHDs two main concerns with the BFI system in the 2018 LG OLED models. Other improvements include a separate ”smooth gradation” picture setting that no longer reduces resolution.
Speaking of motion, LG confirms that the 2019 OLED models will support H
DMI VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), which was first implemented in Samsung TVs and Xbox One S / X last year. It is an adaptive frame rate system that matches frame rate between console and TV in real-time for smoother gaming performance with lower lag. The TVs also support HDMI ALLM (Automatic Low Latency Mode) that automatically switches to the TVs game mode whenever you load up a game on your Xbox One console. PlayStation 4 does not support VRR and ALLM at this time.
Outside of VRR, the TVs will deliver 13 ms input lag (in 1080p and 4K HDR), LG tells FlatpanelsHD. This is probably the lowest input lag on a TV today, depending on what competitors have achieved this year. Lastly, LG said that all calibration settings are now available in the Game picture mode and that a new Game setting can be engaged for all picture modes in the TVs.
LG is also highlighting an AI Picture mode as part of its ThinQ AI initiative. The AI Picture mode aims to enhance the picture based on the type of picture content. It is tied to an online database with over one million pieces of content as well as local recognition done on the actual TV, based on your viewing patterns. The database can be updated continuously, the company explained.
