  • LG G6 leak suggests 3,300 nits of brightness and more anti-reflective screen
  • Set to come in the same 48- to 97-inch sizes as the G5
  • Leak also shows a W6 'Wallpaper' TV at 77 and 83 inches

The 2026 version of LG's flagship G-series OLED TV, the LG G6, appears to have leaked not once but twice – and alongside the LG G6 leak there's what looks like a new 'wallpaper' TV too, the LG W6.

As Videocardz reports, the leaks come from two separate sources and while you should take any purported leaks with a bit of scepticism, these sure look like the real deal, and we know LG has a load of TVs to show imminently at CES 2026.

The first leaked model is the LG G6 Evo AI, which is listed with a new RGB Tandem WOLED as per LG's new branding. The leaked marketing material describes it as having "Brightness Booster Ultra" with a claimed brightness of up to 3.9x the brightness of "a regular OLED TV (B6)" and an updated anti-reflection layer. The leaked material claims peak brightness of up to 3,300 nits.

LG G6 OLED and W6 leaks: key revelations

In addition to that brighter panel the leak details more LG G6 specifications, including screen sizes of 48, 55, 65, 77, 83 and 97 inches and a third-generation Alpha 11 AI processor with 5.6x the neural performance compared to the current version.

As with previous generations the G6 looks like it could be one of the best gaming TVs thanks to four HDMI 2.1 ports and a 165Hz mode plus 4K at up to 120Hz for cloud gaming services. The materials detail support for an avalanche of acronyms: VRR, ALLM, eARC, QMS and QFT plus Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, Miracast, AirPlay 2 and Chromecast. The OS is webOS 26 with a five-year upgrade guarantee.

The leaked materials also include an LG OLED Evo AI TV with the model number W6 and sizes of 77 and 83 inches. It has "wallpaper design with Zero Connect" and a profile of just 99mm, and the panel features "Brightness Booster Ultra" and the same AI processor as the G6.

LG's Wallpaper OLED TV line was legendary among tech writers a few years ago: back in 2017, the W7 OLED TV was just 2.57mm thick and mounted to the wall using magnets, because there was no room for screws or anything. It was an expensive OLED showpiece.

Last year, LG actually actually announced the return of the Wallpaper line, but it pretty much slipped the info under the radar (it wasn't mentioned at our team's big TV briefings with LG) there wasn't much follow-through – but if the info is being mentioned in these marketing materials, that suggests a bigger push in 2026.

There's also a mention of the LG C6 OLED alongside the hint above of a B6 model, but so far there are no more details of that one.

We're expecting to see the new LG OLED TVs at CES 2026, so stay tuned for the official details.
