### Improved Access to News Content and Strengthened Broadcast Partnerships Inspire Double-Digit Growth Across Multiple Regions



<img src='https://res.cloudinary.com/dcsdn4mzr/image/upload/c_scale,w_1050/v1754987679/webOS-TV/images/News/2025-08-08-Image-LG-Channels_1_jgbnyj.jpg' 
alt='Man watching LG CineBeam S' className='mx-auto' />

SEOUL, Aug. 8, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is advancing LG Channels viewership growth across the world, thanks to its intuitive user interface 
and growing variety of content. As part of this effort, LG is partnering with leading broadcasters and news organizations across multiple 
regions to add more news streams to the platform, making them both relevant to local audiences and easier to access and explore.

Starting this month, LG Channels news content can also be accessed directly from the home screen via newly introduced News Portal. 
Rolled out via Q-Card in the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, the U.K. and Germany on TVs running webOS 25, this feature is expected to expand 
to more platforms later this year – supporting further news consumption growth, thanks to the company’s free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) service.

In the U.S., LG Smart TV users can access a wide array of news channels through LG Channels News Hub, a curated source for free, ad-supported 
news channels. The News Hub is made possible through partnerships with multiple leading national and local broadcasters whose channels are available
 in the News Hub, including NBCUniversal, Disney, FOX Television Stations, Bloomberg Media, Warner Bros. Discovery, Allen Media Group’s Local Now, 
 E.W. Scripps, Sinclair Broadcast Group and others. In addition, users can still access news channels through the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) on their LG Smart TVs.

LG Channels also provides localized content from Local Now channels, Allen Media Group’s free news streaming service, which delivers over 220 local 
channels in every U.S. ZIP code.

Expanding its offerings for Spanish-speaking viewers, LG collaborated with NBCUniversal News Group earlier this year to introduce Telemundo Station Group’s 
24/7 streaming news channels. These channels – Telemundo Noticias California, Telemundo Noticias Texas, Telemundo Noticias Florida and 
Telemundo Noticias Noreste – deliver regional news coverage.

These partnerships have been a key driver of the double-digit linear growth the LG Channels service has seen in the U.S., year-over-year. 
LG’s efforts to strengthen regional news access through LG Channels were recognized in June 2025 with the Award for Achievement in Local 
Broadcasting at the ITVT/TVOT 21st Annual Awards for Leadership in Interactive and Multiplatform Television. This honor underscores the 
company’s commitment to advancing news content delivery through partnerships with trusted local broadcasters.

“Our goal with LG Channels has always been to make high-quality, relevant content accessible to everyone,” said Chris Jo, head of the webOS Platform Business Center 
at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “By working with trusted news providers and powerful broadcasters across regions and continuously 
improving how users discover and access content, we are making local and national news more approachable, timely and meaningful within everyday viewing.”

LG Channels viewing time has increased in Mexico and Brazil as local news content becomes more available. In Mexico, major local broadcasters TV Azteca, 
Multimedios and Grupo Imagen joined LG Channels this year, strengthening its local news lineup. TV Azteca’s FIA has emerged as the most-watched channel 
among the 190 channels available on LG Channels in Mexico, underscoring strong demand for quality local news. These additions have driven a 95 percent 
year-over-year increase in viewing hours in Mexico.

In Brazil, LG Channels has expanded local news offerings with the launch of New Brasil in partnership with Grupo Bandeirantes – one of the country’s 
leading broadcasters – CNN Brasil, and Times Brasil – Licenciado Exclusivo CNBC. Since these launches, the platform’s viewing hours in Brazil have 
increased by more than 40 percent, with CNN Brasil the most-watched.

LG also continues to expand the availability of local news content on LG Channels across Europe. In markets like the U.K. and France, news partnerships 
have driven strong month-over-month growth, with double-digit increases in viewership. Currently, over 100 news channels including BFM TV (France), 
GB News (UK), CNN International (UK, Germany, Austria and Switzerland), CNN Headlines (available in 16 European countries), Bloomberg Television (UK), 
Euronews IN DIRETTA (Italy) and CNN en Español (Spain) are available, with more channels, such as France 24, scheduled to launch soon.

In Spain, LG Channels has added content through a landmark partnership with RTVE, the national public broadcaster. Viewers can now enjoy RTVE’s 
premium content for free, including flagship channels La 1, La 2 and Canal 24 Horas (24H) – the latter being a trusted source for real-time national 
and international news.

Strong local news content is increasing viewing time across other regions as well. In Australia, the addition of Sky News Australia, a leading national 
news network with a loyal viewership, has boosted engagement significantly. In Korea, local news from major outlets such as TV Chosun, JTBC, MBN, Channel A 
and YTN consistently garner the most viewing time among the 130 channels available on LG Channels.

In India, LG Channels offers a wide selection of FAST news channels to meet local demand for timely, diverse information. As of June 2025, 
news accounts for over 40 percent of all viewing time, with news channels dominating the platform’s top 10. LG Channels features over 40 news 
channels in eight regional languages. Among these, Aaj Tak is the most-watched nationwide, with other major Hindi-language channels including India TV, 
Republic Bharat, TV9 Bharatvarsh and NDTV India.

### A Genuine Gamechanger, LG’s Ultra Short Throw Projector Presents 4K Picture Quality, Dolby Atmos Support and Built-in webOS in a Sleek, Portable Package



<img src='https://res.cloudinary.com/dcsdn4mzr/image/upload/c_scale,w_1050/v1754372149/webOS-TV/images/News/2025-08-05-lg-cinebeam-s-delivers-unrivaled-viewing-immersion_tsuuwp.webp' 
alt='Man watching LG CineBeam S' className='mx-auto' />

SEOUL, Aug. 5, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) today announced the beginning of the global rollout of the LG CineBeam S (model PU615U), 
a compact yet powerful 4K Ultra Short Throw (UST) projector designed to deliver premium home entertainment and unprecedented flexibility. 
Building on the legacy of the LG CineBeam Q, the new model elevates viewer immersion with vibrant, large-scale images 
in stunning 4K (3,840 x 2,160) and cinematic audio with dynamic Dolby Atmos sound. Introducing the concept of “Wonder beyond spatial limits,” 
the stylish LG CineBeam S can turn even the smallest space into a premier personal theater.

LG’s latest CineBeam projector combines advanced UST technology and an exceptionally small, aesthetically pleasing form factor 
to provide maximum space efficiency, effortless portability and a memorable big-screen experience. Positioned as close as 8.1 
centimeters from the screen or projection surface, this elegantly designed UST projector reproduces bright, detailed pictures 
measuring from 40 inches (at 8.1 centimeter) up to 100 inches (at 39.3 centimeter) diagonally. Unlike conventional projectors 
that require long throw distances and complex mounting setups, the CineBeam S is supremely easy to set up – ideal for situations 
where space is at a premium. Its tiny footprint means there is no need to move furniture or rearrange the room to create the 
optimal conditions for installation.

The CineBeam S produces brilliant 4K images – adjustable in size from 40 to 100 inches – that are just as crisp and clear in 
the daytime as they are at night. Its advanced RGB laser system offers 154 percent coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut, guaranteeing 
accurate color reproduction that helps preserve the creative intent behind each piece of content. With 500 ANSI lumens brightness 
and a 450,000:1 contrast ratio, it ensures deep blacks and rich, lifelike colors under any ambient lighting conditions.

Designed to fit seamlessly into customers’ lifestyles, the LG CineBeam S offers a range of convenient features that promote 
versatile usability. A complete home cinema solution, it comes equipped with built-in stereo speakers that support Dolby Atmos 
for spacious and dynamic audio. The integration of LG’s webOS smart TV platform gives users access to a host of popular streaming 
services along with intuitive control and convenient content discovery.

For more entertainment options, users can connect external devices through the projector’s physical ports (HDMI x 1 and USB Type-C x 2), 
or stream content wirelessly from a smartphone, tablet or PC via AirPlay 2 and Screen Share. Setup is fast and simple, thanks to Auto 
Screen Adjustment, which enables sharp, perfectly aligned visuals in practically any viewing environment. Users can further 
fine-tune visual output without physically moving the projector through Screen Scaling & Shifting, and utilize the Wall Color 
Adjustment feature for projection onto non-white surfaces.

Beyond performance, the CineBeam S also impresses with its subtle, yet eye-catching minimalist design completed with an elegant 
metallic finish, seamlessly blending into any interior space as an aesthetic object. Its small size allows for easy placement 
on a shelf or table and provides excellent portability, giving users the freedom to take the projector with them wherever they go. 
A triumph of form and function, the LG CineBeam S packs powerful projection technology into an ultra-compact unit that fits 
comfortably in one hand, measuring 110 × 160 × 160 millimeters and weighing 1.9 kilograms. The model also ships with a redesigned 
remote that offers a more refined look and a more natural control experience compared to the LG CineBeam Q. Additionally, support 
for the LG ThinQ app lets users operate the projector with their smartphone.

“The LG CineBeam S is a testament to our commitment to innovation, and to bringing a truly premium home cinema experience 
to a wider audience,” said YS Lee, head of IT Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. 
“This isn’t just a projector; it’s a premium lifestyle solution that combines design and technology excellence to deliver 
unprecedented flexibility and a new kind of customer value.”

speakers on each side, the sound can be optimized through EQ settings that automatically adjust based on the screen’s

webOS Studio v2.1.0 and webOS CLI v3.1.1 Released

At LG, we've always pushed ourselves to offer the industry's highest quality products, from TV panel quality to overall durability, 
all the way down to the software and user experience of interacting with an LG TV. To continue delivering the highest quality products, 
we began revisiting our on-device software back in 2021 with an aim toward improving app start-up and runtime performance.


LG TVs run on webOS, which, as the name implies, means apps are written in JavaScript. Most of our apps use React. 
When we first adopted React, we were pleased with the development productivity it provided, but sadly its initial performance was subpar 
in terms of start-up time, memory consumption, and responsiveness. After significant and complicated optimizations 
we reached performance benchmarks that were good enough, and yet we desired a new technology that was both fast and simple.


For our new experiment, one engineer proposed rewriting our Japanese Electronic Program Guide (EPG) in Flutter. 
This was an appropriate candidate for exploration, because a unique layout had already forced our Japanese EPG 
to be a completely isolated app with a distinct codebase. Of course, this nicely limited the scope of the experiment.

<img src='https://res.cloudinary.com/dcsdn4mzr/image/upload/c_scale,w_1050/v1720588069/webOS-TV/images/News/webos_flutter_logo_rolm6j.webp' 
alt='LG weBOS - Flutter' className='mx-auto'/>

To our delight, our very first prototype with Flutter easily exceeded our target benchmarks! 
Without any optimization whatsoever, our Flutter rewrite launched twice as fast as our original app, 
consumed less runtime memory, and felt more responsive and playful to use. 
This Flutter app is currently included in 2024 webOS TVs sold in Japan.


With our Japanese EPG rewrite a success, we have decided to rewrite more apps using Flutter, 
including the primary software that users interact with while using an LG TV. 
Nothing could be more critical than nailing this rewrite, and to our delight again, 
our first prototype with Flutter delivered the best benchmarks that app had ever seen. 
Flutter gave us increased developer productivity, better runtime app performance, 
and as we've gone on to discover, a smoother experience finding and hiring talented developers.


We will include Flutter version of the apps in our 2025 televisions globally, and even more Flutter apps in 2026. 
The Flutter-powered webOS versions will also run on previous models via webOS Re:New program. 
In total, that will place Flutter in tens of millions of LG televisions already in consumer homes around the world.


Looking forward, we aim to support a broad range of Flutter apps on LG TVs through webOS. 
We are planning to work with multiple parties on a closed beta to develop custom apps with Flutter. 
Currently, we can recompile most Flutter apps' source code to run successfully on webOS. 
In time, we hope to release tooling to help all Flutter developers target LG televisions. 
Specifically, we are excited about Flutter's potential to bring performant casual gaming directly to LG TVs.


At LG, we're excited to both contribute to and benefit from Flutter and its ecosystem, 
and we are excited about how it will ultimately improve our products.

New and Successful Experiment of webOS with Flutter for Better Performance and Playful Experience
