News Summary:

On September 11, 2026, the Gamers Nexus research team formally announced an investigation into LG Electronics, alleging that 216 million of its TVs are secretly recording users and invading personal space. Just prior to this announcement, LG Electronics showcased its premium ultra-large-screen LCD TV, the Micro RGB evo (model MRGB95), at IFA 2026 in Berlin, highlighting its exceptional color purity. The TV leverages proprietary Micro RGB technology and the α 11 AI Processor Gen3, which earned TÜV Rheinland’s High Purity RGB Spectrum Display certification. Earlier on the same day, LG denied claims that its smart TVs listen to their surroundings and log data even when offline, referencing a prior investigation from the YouTube channel Gamers Nexus and security researchers that examined LG smart TVs. Previously, on September 11, the ongoing RAM crisis continued to impact LG's consumer OLED TV production, a market it has been engaged in since 2013.
